Historypin
Historypin was created to help people come together from across different generations, cultures and places, around the history of their families and neighborhoods, improving personal relations and building stronger communities. Everyone has history to share: whether it’s sitting in yellowed albums in the attic, collected in piles of crackly tapes, conserved in archives all over the world or passed down in memories and old stories. Learn from Curator Robert Killion how the Peoria Historical Society, OLLI members, and everyone can add to and view the photographic images, videos, audio clips and descriptive and narrative text that help Historypin create a more complete understanding of the world.
