The exhibits were to depict contributions from Cleveland's ethnic groups to the multicultural society of the area. Following the 1976 Bicentennial celebration, the museum established a permanent office and exhibit gallery in the Old Arcade in downtown Cleveland. Although the museum closed in 1981, it was able to document the experiences of immigrants through oral histories, photographs, and other collected material. The collection consists of audio recordings, video recordings, interview transcripts, ledgers, financial documents, membership lists, board meeting minutes, correspondence, presentation materials, notes, catalog cards, exhibit materials, and museum holdings. | | | Call #: | MS 5175 | | | Extent: | 19.42 linear feet (21 containers, 1 oversize folder, and 1 film canister) | | | Subjects: | African Americans -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | American Revolution Bicentennial, 1776-1976 -- Exhibitions. | Chinese Americans -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Cleveland (Ohio) -- Emigration and immigration | Croatian Americans -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Greater Cleveland Ethnographic Museum | Greeks -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Hungarian Americans -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Immigrants -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Interviews. | Immigrants -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Indians of North America -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Irish Americans -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Italian Americans -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Jews -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Lithuanians -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Macedonian Americans -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Oral histories. | Russians -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Serbian Americans -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Slovenian Americans -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Syrian Americans -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Ukrainian Americans -- Ohio -- Cleveland
