Helvetia, West Virginia
Helvetia native Clara Lehmann has long been an inspiration and role model for Understory’s work. As the co-founder of Coat of Arms creative studio and president of the Helvetia Restoration and Development Organization, Clara seamlessly blends innovation with a deep commitment to preserving her community's traditions and Swiss heritage. We were thrilled to help document Clara’s impact through a video that pays homage to her highly original and place-based brand of activism.
