Western Reserve and the American Revolution

Highlighting the history of Ohio's Western Reserve region and Fort Laurens, our storytelling initiative showcases the area's creation and its complex history that includes displacement of the Wyandot, Shawnee and Delaware tribes. The project invites meaningful dialogues about shared history, justice and the impact of the American Revolution.
