Behind Gray Walls
EP 111 - A City Behind Walls
In this episode, Anthony and Samuel sit down with Idaho State Historical Society Executive Director Janet Gallimore and Development & Membership Administrator Seth Wheeler to talk about A City Behind Walls , the new immersive survey exhibition being developed at the Old Idaho Penitentiary. Anthony also sits down with Exhibit Developer Tim Pfaff for an inside look at the new Survey Gallery, walking through the exhibition and exploring how we are reimagining the way visitors experience more than 100 years of Idaho’s prison history. This is more than a new exhibition—it is a new way to experience the Old Pen. From the stories of the people who lived and worked behind its walls to the larger history of crime, punishment, and life in Idaho, A City Behind Walls will transform how visitors understand this historic site. The exhibition is being made possible through the support of our community, and you can help bring it to life.
