Pioneers was given to the\nNLCHS by Ms. Espinosa-Frink to incorporate more minority history representation in our\ncollection. We invite members of the New London community to join us in the Shaw Mansion\nGarden for a viewing of the exhibit along with other activities. \nPioneers is a collection of 15 portraits each with personal stories – transcribed in Spanish\nand English – of a Hispanic woman as she resided in New London County in 1989. Three\ngenerations of the same family were interviewed. After viewing the exhibit\, Norwich Historian\nDale Plummer said “I found the presentation moving… In capturing the very human\, universal\nexperiences of these pioneers\, this exhibit is a must-see.” Today\, these stories serve as a measure\nof the progress that has been made for Hispanic women. As oral histories\, the portraits invite\npeople to engage in dialogues with the Hispanic community. This helps people come to a better\nunderstanding of one another and resolve societal differences in a peaceful manner. Pioneers has\nbeen on exhibit in several prestigious locations including Yale University\, The International\nGallery in Providence\, Boston\, Connecticut College\, and the Centro de la Communidad of New\nLondon. This event is symbolic of the exhibit’s journey back home to New London. \nThe opening will include short talks from Ms. Espinosa-Frink\, CT Humanities Executive\nDirector Jason Mancini\, a guest speaker on oral histories\, and New London Hospitality Center\nDirector Cathy Zall. Additionally\, there will be tours of the Shaw Mansion. Light snacks and\nrefreshments will be available. There is no specific dress code\, but we respect people who desire\nto represent their heritage by means of their attire to do so. The event will begin at approximately\n2 pm on June 18th .
