INDIANAPOLIS — The Indiana Historical Society (IHS) is launching a collecting initiative to document the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on Indiana in real time.
IHS requests the input and collaboration of Hoosiers throughout the state for “Telling Your Story: Documenting COVID-19 in Indiana.” Hoosiers are encouraged to send writings, photos, drawings and even short videos to IHS via an online form — helping capture this unique historical moment so future generations can understand what this experience was like for Hoosiers.
To submit your stories, photos and other items, please visit: https://rb.gy/owyugb.
The IHS has collected items that document Indiana’s past since 1830. There are thousands of letters, diaries, scrapbooks, photographs, slides, albums and graphics in the IHS archives documenting the Hoosier experience. And now, IHS wants to add the story of how Hoosiers and their families are understanding and experiencing the current “new normal” of the COVID-19 pandemic.
