Scranton Stories: Oral Histories and Portrait Photographs Exhibition 2024
Meet & Greet with the Project Team and Interviewees

Over the past two years, the Scranton community has explored themes of history, belonging, and identity through Scranton’s Story: Our Nation’s Story, a series of humanities-based programs funded in part by the National Endowment for the Humanities. This exhibition displays the oral history initiative called “Scranton Stories,” first launched in fall 2023. It showcases portraits taken by photographer Byron Maldonado and personal statements and interview links from more than thirty community members interviewed to give voice to a broad array of Scranton experiences and connect them to our national story.

At the public reception, attendees will have the opportunity to connect with members of the Scranton Stories team and oral history interviewees and discuss the project and the stories.
