Our Stories, In Focus

What can faded photographs, torn letters and unearthed diaries tell us about the relationship between our past, our families and our community? The University of North Carolina and the surrounding towns of Chapel Hill and Carrboro are collaborating on a oral history and art project that hopes to answer this question. Guest host Laura Leslie welcomes Sally Greene, a member of the Chapel Hill Town Council and the public humanities coordinator at the UNC Humanities program to discuss the project, "Our Stories, In Focus." Also joining the program are Leah Sobsey and Lynn Bergman-Blass, visual artists participating in the project and Haley Koch, a UNC student who was part of the on-campus event. Upcoming events are Saturday March 21 at the Uuniversity Mall and Saturday March 28th at the Century Center in Carrboro.
