VFC Exhibitions :: The Hale Street Gang: Portraits in Writing
Meet the Hale Street Gang, twelve senior citizens who gather once a week to read aloud from their memoirs-in-progress. Their clubhouse is the Greater Randolph Senior Center in Randolph, VT, an elderly mansion in a neighborhood south of the railroad tracks. Together they weave a “collective memoir” of life in twentieth-century America, with the village of Randolph, Vermont as its nexus.
The exhibit, The Hale Street Gang: Portraits in Writing features photographs by Jack Rowell,writings by Sara Tucker and the Hale Street Gang, and recordings of Sarah and Hale Street Gang members reading from their memoirs.
The Hale Street Gang: Portraits in Writing will be on display at the Vision and Voice Documentary Workspace of the Vermont Folklife Center form September 10, 2010 through December 18, 2010. For additional infomation please call VFC and see the exhibit Webpage here :: link
