Framingham Reads Together Partner Event with Framingham History Center
Join us for a captivating journey back in time as the Framingham History Center presents "Through Their Eyes: Artifacts & Stories of Framingham’s Role in World War II." Explore the multifaceted narratives of World War II, from the home front to the battlefront, through personal letters, military uniforms, photographs, and other ephemera from the FHC’s extensive 10,000-piece archive and artifact collection.
Discover the stories of resilience, sacrifice, and hope as the FHC highlights themes of immigration, community mobilization, and the everyday lives of those who lived through the turmoil. Led by FHC Executive Director Anna Tucker, this talk aims to inspire reflection on the impacts of war on individuals and communities, inviting attendees to connect with the past in a profound and personal way.
