Anyone can sign up for a limited presentation on a subject related to Suffield or American history. Anecdotes about local characters, folklore, artifacts, photos or local artwork, quilts, collections, archaeology, and works in progress are all welcome. Time allowed for presentations will depend on how many individuals sign up to present their work. Generally, the participants will have at least ten minutes for their presentations. Contact Bob Stewart by March 2 to sign up and arrange to prepare any photos for projection. Projection is preferred to passing valuable archival photos or your artifacts through the audience.
