ARTIFACTS NEEDED FOR WINCHESTER WORKERS EXHIBIT

24 Apr 2013 9:17 PM | Posted by GNHLHA
Did you or a family member or friend ever work at the old Winchester Repeating Arms plant? LHA is producing an exhibit, "Our Community at Winchester: an Elm City Story," for a pre-opening in June at the Winpisinger Center for Education and Technology in Hollywood, Maryland to be followed by a gala opening event in October at Gateway Community College in New Haven. To help tell the story, we're seeking artifacts of all sorts - tools, products, photographs, and other memorabilia. We particularly want to illustrate the other products that Winchester made: "Yes, they made guns, but did you know what else they made?" We also want to illustrate workers' experiences on the job, as well as community connections. Please contact joan@laborhistory.org or call (203) 777 2756 ext. 2 and leave a message.
