From ARTnews:
An artist from Cleveland, Ohio is transforming a classic 1947 Greyhound bus, which he saved from a Pennsylvania junkyard, into a traveling museum.
Robert Louis Brandon Edwards, who is also a historian and preservationist, is tearing out the bus’s interior (in a previous life in the 1970s it was a motorhome equipped with a kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom) so he can turn it into the Museum of the Great Migration.
“Depending on how quickly I can raise the funds to get the bus operational again, I hope to have it on the road by this time next year, and plan to hit all of the major Great Migration destination cities,” Edwards told ARTnews.
Edwards received an SAH IDEAS Fellowship in 2022, and was mentored by SAH member Kathleen James-Chakraborty.
