About this Event
You know your neighborhood’s history, now is your chance to share it with the world! Join The West End Museum at the Parker Hill Branch for an interactive community history workshop. Learn to use the crowdsourced history database When and Where in Boston (whenandwhereinboston.org) to create pins on a digital map that tell the story of the who, what, when, and where in Roxbury and Mission Hill history. Share when your school was built, where a famous resident was born, or the details of a celebratory parade.
Learn how to research, format, and submit pins that will be reviewed by professional historians before being published online. Spend the evening at a citizen history party with your fellow history lovers, access library research sources, and ask for help from the library and museum staff.
Bring your own laptop or tablet and prepare to become a contributor to local history!
