Memories of the Mattin Center needed for Oral History Project

We need stories for an audio collage of oral histories, performances, and interviews that will resonate through speakers placed around the courtyard of the Mattin Center from April 24 – May 2. The stories will celebrate the vibrant activities that took place over the last 20 years of arts and student life at the Mattin Center.

Will you share yours?

Do you have any stories about the Mattin Center, memories of the arts at Homewood in general, music/theater recordings, or anything you’d like to contribute?

Send a voice memo or audio recording as a link or attachment to digitalmedia@jhu.edu by Monday, April 12 to be included, or send us an email to schedule a longer conversation!
