June is a month when we celebrate our fathers, so we would like to use this months VT Untapped episode to show you Vermont through the eyes of a unique father and daughter team: Perkins Flint and Katharine Flint DuClos.

Inspired by the exhibit currently on display on our Middlebury Gallery, Ice Shanties: Fishing, People and Culture, this month we focus on the seasonal community of fishers that remerges each winter on the ice at the Retreat Meadows in Brattleboro.

This month’s episode explores the persistence of Franco-American culture in Vermont through the life and work of the late Martha Pellerin. Learn about Martha and her work to promote, validate and share the contributions made by Vermonters of French Canadian descent to the culture of contemporary Vermont.
