Special
Projects
The
Pearl Street Research Center maintains special projects in
which the community can be involved. The Oral History
Project volunteers interview local people to obtain
information about Sioux City’s history. The George Newman
Negative Identification project depends on volunteers to
help to identify over 11,000 photographic images taken by
the Sioux City Journal Photographer, George Newman in the
1940s and 1950s. The staff at the Research Center prepares
and gives talks to community groups about Sioux City history
and the work being done at the Research Center.
Volunteers
are always needed for these and other projects at the
Research Center. Please
contact the staff for more
information.
George Newman,
Sioux City Journal photographer took this photo (above) of

Band Shell in January 1952. The negative
of this photograph is in the collections at the Pearl Street
Research Center.
