This study designed three historical information kiosks that Park Spirit, our sponsor, will install along the East-West trail in Worcester, Massachusetts to educate hikers on the history of Worcester’s greenspaces. This was achieved through a survey of hikers’ interest in various types of history, gathering historical stories from local news organizations, and formatting the kiosks to be attention-grabbing and visually appealing. This study’s findings led us to create three kiosk designs and offer recommendations for work on other kiosks.
