Description

Did you know that you—yes, YOU—are not only essential to making history, but have the opportunity to be a part of it? This winter, the Little White School Museum invites you to share your stories with us. Whether your family has lived in Oswego for generations or you just moved here last month, you are an important part of what makes Oswego’s history so rich. We’re interested in your autobiographical statements, family histories, perspectives on past local events, and even literary or artistic compositions. Not a writer? No problem! We welcome stories of any length, in any format—typed paragraphs or bullet points, videos, images, and more. When composing your stories, here are a few helpful questions to guide you: What happened? Who was there? When did it happen? Where did it happen? Why did it happen? If you’d like to share your stories but need help, reach out to Museum Coordinator Joe Noce at jnoce@oswegolandpd.org, and he’ll be happy to assist you. Please note that once your stories are submitted, it will be reviewed by our staff. If accepted, it will become part of the Museum’s permanent collections and will be made available to researchers upon request. To share your stories, email your files to jnoce@oswegolandpd.org, or drop it off at the museum’s front desk during regular operating hours between Monday, January 5 and Monday, March 30. We appreciate your help in preserving what makes Oswego wonderful! (JN)
