Everyone has a story to tell.
This fall, we are planning to document and preserve the local stories and history of your community through New Paltz Narratives- a StoryCorps DIY Project

Volunteers will interview community members who have had an impact on our community through their work- from activists to non-profit leaders, educators, faith leaders, elders, and maybe even a “famous” alum or two! We hope to open dialogue, engage the community, and honor the stories of those around us.

All of these interviews will be shared during a listening party on December 5 and added to the StoryCorps international archive once complete.
