The Mass. Memories Road Show comes to Winchester on Saturday, October 20 from 10 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., at the Jenks Center, 109 Skillings Road. All are urged to attend, and to bring three photos to be added to the collection. Long-time and new residents, and even those who only work and play in town, are welcome to contribute to this portrait of who we are today.
The history of Massachusetts and Winchester is much more than the stories of famous people. It is the collective story of its citizenry – not only those who have lived here all or most of their lives, but also those who have arrived recently or lived or visited. All contributions to this project are greatly valued, and we hope you will take this opportunity to add the stories of your family to our local history.
Be sure to bring photos for inclusion! Project staff will scan up to three of your photos on the spot, so you don't have to part with your originals. All scanned information becomes part of the state-wide digital archive, and a copy will also be added to our local archives, library and WinCam.
For more information please call Project Director Nancy Schrock at 781-572-6432 or send an email to archives@winchester.us.
This program is supported in part by a grant from the Winchester Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency.
