Learn with a spatial record

Prepare before you arrive.

Use the Trinity project to practice reading a building record, connecting a story to a place, and preparing questions for an onsite visit.

  1. Read the record

    Open the Trinity tour. Find the sanctuary, side rooms, and connecting stairs. Review the project date context and distinguish what the model shows from what a source reports.

    Explore the Trinity example ↗
  2. Attach the story

    Choose a reading stop and open its contribution link. Notice how the place stays attached to the form and how publication permission differs from Historical Society sharing. Submit only genuine contributions.

  3. Connect the task to a guide

    At Spark House, use the guide for your assigned equipment and confirm its physical location with your coordinator.

  4. Verify the current space

    Before the assignment, confirm the approved room, equipment, visitor arrangements, and current access routes onsite. Record discrepancies for the coordinator. An older tour is a preparation aid.
