Why This Work Exists
Born in Lewiston, Maine, to a family shaped by immigration, mill work, labor, and survival, David Cook grew up understanding that history is often carried by ordinary people whose stories disappear over time.
This work exists to help municipalities, museums, historians, conservation groups, cultural organizations, and communities bring those stories to light through research, artwork, fabrication, and public experience.
Every Community Has A Story
Partner with DCLA to bring yours to light through research, storytelling, design, fabrication, installation, and permanent cultural preservation.
