Shelf Life Community Story Project

The Shelf Life Community Story Project records oral histories with current and former residents of Seattle’s Central District neighborhood. “We believe community stories and neighborhood histories can change the way we think about community – what it means to have it and what it means to lose it. We hope the stories we’re recording can influence conversations about change and shift the way this city imagines its future,” states the organization’s website: http://www.shelflifestories.com

Podcast

What if neighborhood stories could change the way we think about community; what it means to have it, and what it means to lose it? The Shelf Life Podcast brings you ten episodes of stories from Seattle’s Central District. Hear from the people who built the neighborhood that shaped this city. Their stories are funny, heartbreaking, and really relevant to what is happening in our city today. Find the podcast on iTunes and Soundcloud. Podcast produced by Jill Freidberg, Mayowa Aina, and Domonique Meeks. Original score by Bubba Jones. Funded by King County 4Culture.
