More than 150 stories of local veterans will line the Natick Common during November as part of the Morse Institute Library’s second annual Veterans’ Storywalk, according to a community announcement.
The public exhibit is scheduled to open at 1 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 5, and run through Nov. 13. It will feature signs along the sidewalks linking to oral histories collected by the library’s Veterans Oral History Project over the past 28 years.
The project has preserved the memories of more than 350 veterans, according to the announcement.
“We are deeply grateful to the veterans who have generously shared their stories,” said Miki Wolfe, library director at the Morse Institute Library, in a statement. “Their voices enrich our community’s understanding of military history and public service, reminding us all of the sacrifices so many have made for our country.”
The Storywalk will begin with a ribbon cutting from 1-1:30 p.m. Nov. 5. Visitors are encouraged to explore the installation and reflect on the contributions of local veterans.
