We are seeking adults who would like to share stories from their youth as part of our Memory Drive program. Memory Drive is an intergenerational program in which teens will interview adults to document stories from their school years. Using A/V equipment, teens will create and edit a multimedia clip for each interview, ultimately creating a digital story collection that will be shared on the library's website and social media pages. The program will run through Aug. 8, and participants and their families will be invited to a special screening of the interview clips in August. Interested participants can email stacyp@ippl.info or call 630/887-8760 ext. 245. This project is cosponsored by the Rotary Club of Darien.
