Hosted by Dallas Heritage Village, The Slave Dwelling Project is returning to North Texas for the second year, bringing forward the stories of the enslaved African Americans at Millermore & the Gano Farmstead, now located at Dallas Heritage Village.

Based in South Carolina, The Slave Dwelling Project’s mission is to identify and assist property owners, government agencies, and organizations to preserve extant slave dwellings. This is done primarily through public programming, including sleeping overnight in these buildings.

The May 14 event will take place at Jackie Townsell Bear Creek Heritage Center, while the May 15 event will take place at Dallas Heritage Village.
