“So often we look back and wish we could ask previous generations about the events they witnessed and lived through,” says Executive Director, Margaret Anne Tockarshewsky. “The stories and photos we capture today will illustrate this unprecedented time for our children’s children and for generations to come.”
Share your COVID-19 experiences in this brief questionnaire and upload photos on the “Documenting the COVID-19 Crisis” page: https://www.newhavenmuseum.org/covid19/ Questions include asking for details on how respondents’ lives have been affected by the virus, their responses to the situation, and advice to share with future generations coping with similar situations.
NHM is responsible for documenting and preserving Elm City history, and personal, first-person accounts are the backbone of the museum’s research library, exhibitions, and school and public programs.
