SPRING ORAL HISTORY PROJECT: We are currently finalizing plans for the Blue Hill Peninsula Stories project this Spring in the Audio Production I class. This year will be another collaboration with the Blue Hill Public Library, Galen Koch and Maine Sound & Story.
The topic this year will be 'Back to the Land Movement' of the 1970's and the impact on the peninsula community.
In the Spring, students will conduct interviews and produce oral history audio interviews that will be edited and archived permanently on the Maine Sound and Story website. There will be a culminating event at the Blue Hill Public Library (tentatively scheduled for April 1) that features the students' work and celebrates the completion of the project.
Stay tuned for more info about this exciting GSA project!
