Marshfield, Town of (Jaquith Public Library)

The Jacquith Public Library, in partnership with the Marshfield Historical Society, will engage youth and senior residents to preserve Marshfield's community memory through intergenerational dialog and oral history. Building on partnerships with the Twin Valley Senior Center and Twinfield Together Mentoring, the project focuses on interviews with mentor/mentee pairs discussing the past and hopes for the future of Marshfield. The project team will add context to these stories by digitizing related photos and artifacts from the Historical Society collection and from the contributions of interview participants. Community Memory Days will provide opportunities for residents to contribute historical content.
