Monticello.org has received a Silver MUSE Award in the category of Digital Communities! We are proud to share this honor with the Thomas Jefferson Foundation.
Judges said: "This site is a great example of how social media can extend the visitor’s experience through an ongoing dialog. The cross posting of content from Museum staff, the public and historical experts really brings a wonderful wealth of viewpoints, information and entrance into the time of Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello."
