Partnerships 

 

One of our goals is to partner with educational institutions, museums, and other organizations—including those in the Quad Cities region of Illinois and Iowa—to supply programming that will meet our mutual goals in serving and educating the public.  Beginning in 2007 we established a partnership with the Rock Island Regional Office of Education, which coordinates a variety of programs serving students and teachers in northwestern Illinois.  In 2008 we established a partnership with the Moline Preservation Society in connection with the writing of the book, Moline History Echoes From Riverside Cemetery.

 

The Rock Island County Historical Society has hosted Heritage Documentaries programs, including a launch for the Riverside Cemetery book in 2009 and a premiere of the Rock Island prison documentary in 2012.  The Figge Art Museum in Davenport has hosted some of our programs, including the premiere of the corn husking documentary in September 2009.  And we now have an agreement with the Putman Museum in Davenport to host a premiere of the prison documentary in 2012.
