PRESS RELEASE
The “COVID-19 Living History Project: Stories from Our Community” is a new Local History digital exhibit curated by the South Pasadena Public Library.
The online exhibit showcases collective memory and living experiences of the COVID-19 pandemic from local community members. The online exhibit preserves and features a collection of stories and photographs that are shared by community members, detailing their everyday experiences and observations during the time of the pandemic.
Personal stories highlighted in the exhibit include community experiences with school closures, distant learning, stay-at-home activities, remote work, employment, social gatherings, community building, and much more.
Check out the digital exhibit to learn more about these stories from some of your local community members! Previous digital exhibits include “South Pasadena Public Library: Twelve Decades and Counting”, “Ray Bradbury: Celebrating 100 Years!”, “City of Trees”, and “Summers in SoPas: Highlights of Summers Past”.
