Your Stories

Part of Hennepin History Museum's mission is to collect oral histories that represent Minnesota's recent immigrants; currently HHM does not have any data or personal stories that reflect the Bhutanese refugee community.  Helping shed light to this untold story of our current residents is vital to understanding the people who make up our community.  

The primary goal of this project was to collect 10 oral histories concerning resettlement experiences and life in Minnesota.
