ORAL HISTORY PROGRAM

The Bayside Historical Society is looking for long-time Bayside residents (or former residents) who are willing to share their memories for the Society’s oral history collection.

A valuable resource for interpreting and understanding the past, oral histories are a unique way of documenting history through first-person audio recordings. Currently, BHS has some 70 oral histories in its archives.

Those interested in participating can call (718) 352-1548 to schedule an interview.

The Bayside Historical Society is a proud participant of the WNYC New York Public Radio 'STAR' (Salute the Arts) Initiative. This program profiles small, cultural, non-profit organizations in the NY Metro area through on-air promotional announcements and website support
