Abstract
The Center for Communal Studies at the University of Southern Indiana (USI) invites applications for a travel grant to fund research at the Communal Studies Collection at USI’s David L. Rice Library. The Communal Studies Collection’s rich archival materials contain information on over 600 historic and contemporary communal societies, utopias, and intentional communities. Strengths include the Harmonists and Owenites who settled nearby New Harmony, Indiana, but the breadth of the collections cover American communalism more broadly.
