The Code Flag Lima Project
What started as a quarantine project to bring entertaining Herreshoff-related content to folks while they were stuck at home during the lockdown has evolved into an ongoing digital initiative through which we bring the museum to our audience in unique and compelling ways. And with other museums and collections increasing online access, we have new opportunities to add context to the stories we tell.
