After a wonderful holiday break, we’re back with the 2016 edition of “Friday Faves.”

Keira, president and CEO:

• Jennifer Delgadillo of Sky Blue Window speaks with Editor in Chief of Eñe magazine, Karla Romero in Ñ is for Latino Indy.
• Fantastic images of the fashion of the future. Washington Post shares a great article on “How people a century ago imagined we’d dress today.” Read it now.

Kristen, director of communications and development

• I know we talk about this a lot, but never fear humanities degree-holder or -seeker, your degree is valuable! Read these 5 reasons your humanities degree might even help you get a job in a STEM field.
• 2016 has arrived, and in case you need a reminder – it’s the year of Indiana’s Bicentennial. Throughout the year, Indiana Historical Society will produce a weekly “Bicentennial Minute” narrated by Jane Pauley to help you celebrate and learn about our history. Here’s the first episode.

Leah, director of programs and community engagement:

• If you love Twitter and Hoosier history as much as I do, then you must follow Ray Boomhower (@RayBoomhower). Ray, the senior director of the Indiana Historical Society Press, shares all kinds of great Hoosier lore and lately, lots of incredible historic maps from the I.H.S. collection, like this Lincoln Boyhood map from 1934.
• For historic coiffure enthusiasts (as well as those interested in how digital projects can make the humanities fun and accessible), I present without further comment: Design your own 18th century Marie Antoinette-style wig.
• I love public art projects that incorporate archival materials, especially when they have political urgency (see Jenny Holzer’s N.S.A. Project), and I’m also a Cold War nerd, so I really dig Moscow’s Gulag Street Art Project big time.

Jacqueline Cromleigh, communications manager and program associate:
