Conway Our Hometown - Come and Tell Your Stories


We are starting work this week on a new project that is planned to result in a thirty minute NH PBS television program. It feature Conway and will be part of the new "Our Hometown" series. To learn more and to see programs already done for other towns see this link. They have done six towns so far out of 221 towns and 13 cities. 



There is information and a sign up sheet at the reference desk at the Conway Public Library. Here is some info from their website.

No one knows your hometown like you.

The premise of NH PBS's award-winning Our Hometown series is that each New Hampshire town and city has a unique story to tell, and the people who live there are ideal storytellers for their hometowns.

Each episode in this series will explore the culture, commerce, history and people of one of New Hampshire's 221 towns and 13 cities. New Hampshire author and storyteller Rebecca Rule hosts each 30-minute episode. Your town could be next!.

Want to recommend your town for an upcoming episode? 
Contact our producers at hometown@nhpbs.org or call (603) 868-4372.


Our old friend Rebecca Rule is the host. If you want to see her in action you can check out the Henney History Room DVD "Full of Moxie" with her and the late David Emerson.



The current plan is for them to come and film in the Spring of 2019. Hope you will be a part of this interesting and important project.
