You’re invited to join our community oral history project! This month’s theme is Moms & Proms. Looking for something special to do for Mother’s Day? Come to the library with your mom to interview her and help preserve her memories. Or, bring a friend and share your prom stories! We will provide recording equipment and suggested questions to help guide your interview. We will also provide scanning equipment for photos. With permission, your recording and images will be become part of the Voices from HOME oral history archive.
Voices from HOME is a community-based oral history project coordinated by the Thompson Free Library and funded by a grant from the Maine Community Foundation. Our project partners include The Commons at Central Hall, the Dover-Foxcroft Historical Society, University of Maine Cooperative Extension Piscataquis County, and other participating organizations and community members. Each month, Voices from HOME will host a recording event on a different theme at locations around the Heart of Maine region.
For more information, please contact Greta or Michelle at the library.
