Illinois Voices 250 Community Recording Day at Marshall Public Library

We want to hear your story. 

Join us at the Marshall Public Library to record a conversation with a partner, archived at the Library of Congress.

In honor of the country’s 250th anniversary, Illinois Humanities is partnering with the Illinois America 250 Commission and StoryCorps Studios to present Illinois Voices 250, a statewide time capsule of conversations with people in all 102 Illinois counties.

This project celebrates and preserves the voices of everyday Illinoisans: who we are, what we care about, and what we think is important about this moment in our country's history.

By documenting diverse stories, reflections, and memories from people across the state, Illinois Voices 250 will create a lasting record. These conversations will be preserved in a special collection at the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress for future generations.
