History is Now: JMM Collects Stories of the Pandemic

The Jewish Museum of Maryland is collecting stories of life during the COVID-19 public health crisis. We encourage you to submit your experiences - through words, images, or objects - to help us preserve the memories and experiences of Jewish Maryland for future generations. 

Your words can be in whatever format you prefer: written (poetry, a journal entry, a letter, an essay, or just some jotted thoughts) or recorded. Photos and drawings can be used to illustrate your words, or can stand alone.

Use this form to easily submit your work to the Museum. 

If you prefer to submit by mail or email, or have objects that you think might interest us, that's okay! Send your words and photos to Joanna Church, Director of Collections & Exhibits, at jchurch@jewishmuseummd.org or The Jewish Museum, 15 Lloyd Street, Baltimore, MD 21202.  If submitting this way, please be sure to include your name, hometown or location, and age, and let us know how you would like us to attribute and share your work, using the questions below as guidance.
