Sherborn Stories: A 350th Community Project
Among the many Sherborn History Center & Museum’s 350th programs is a digital effort called Sherborn Stories. Created to dramatically increase our digital history presence, this is a crowd-sourced, community-wide effort to connect past & present through local stories of all scopes and sizes. Join us and learn about the innovative program’s goals and processes, and take a trip into Sherborn’s everyday life past with a site tour. The session will include a burst of joint exploration to see what we can collectively uncover about a potential story waiting to be revealed. Optional but encouraged: bring along a tablet or laptop
