91³Ô¹ÏÍø's Story Oral Histories and Portrait Photographs Exhibition
Exhibition through April 21
Meet & Greet Public Reception, April 4
Weinberg Memorial Library, The 91³Ô¹ÏÍø
Over the past two years, the 91³Ô¹ÏÍø community has explored themes of history, belonging, and identity through 91³Ô¹ÏÍø’s Story: Our Nation’s Story, a series of humanities-based programs that culminated in an oral history initiative called “91³Ô¹ÏÍø Stories.” First launched in fall 2023, this exhibition showcases portraits taken by photographer Byron Maldonado and personal statements and interview links from 33 community members to give voice to a broad array of 91³Ô¹ÏÍø experiences and connect them to our national story.
At the public reception, attendees will have the opportunity to meet members of the 91³Ô¹ÏÍø Stories team and oral history interviewees and discuss the project.
