Description

"I was a combat crewman in the navy if you miss a flight, you lose flight pay. First time I missed a flight, A30 MM shell went through my vacant seat so I didn't lose my pay!" From Tell Me a Story! (A Collection of Broadsides) Tell me a Story is a collaborative community project that began as a tool to uncover common ground; a cultural history or, perhaps, a cultural promise specific to the city of Clarksville, Tennessee. Citizens of different generations (representing a full-house of experience) were invited to create written and visual narratives about memorial moments in their lives. The broadsides included in this portfolio are the products of their effort. We hope you enjoy the broadsides and can find a few common threads that relate to your life and your memories. Participating Artists: Cynthia Marsh; Matt Stoddard; Sarah Wooldridge; Maggie Bizwell; Susan Bradley; Rebecca Chamlee; John Cobb; Tifany Espinoza; Shakira Gilliam; Mark Griggs; Matt Haines; Evelyn Hunter; Lee Hunter.
