If this old building could talk...it's Audio Walking Tour of Chatham time!


Ever think about the old adage “if this old building could talk?  Well, with your help that is just want it will do!  How you might ask?  

Tell your personal, funny, outrageous, sad, or ? stories,  that’s how!  The Audio Walking Tour of Chatham invites you to offer your story that took place at a particular location in the village, though the story need not have anything to do with the location.  The stories will be recorded, edited, and ordered to create a self-guide walking tour of our Village.  This tour will lead the listener from place to place listening to your stories!  

Got a story about how one time when you were standing in front of the clock tower and you got a really important phone call about... Or the time you were thrown out of Ralph's when... Or maybe someone once told you about the time they were coming out of the pub and...All stories are welcome. 

Are you shy or simply want some anonymity?  Submit your story as text and we will record it for you.  Simply email to: melissasarris2@gmail.com (or email your pre-recorded mp3 file!)


Participate in telling, recording or editing (no experience necessary!) Come to the Chatham Public Library on Monday, August 18th 6:30-7:45 to share your story or Wednesday, August 20th 6:30-7:45 to learn basic audio editing using garage band and audacity.

Yes, Re-thinking the Facade is over and Berkshire bank looks ordinary again but below are a couple of images from the closing event.  Those two lucky folks got to take home a genuine artifact from the facade!

Find out how the story behind this "brick" from
Re-thinking the Facade will figure into
the Audio Walking Tour!


Marie Claude taking home
"Absence."
Greit taking home "Buddha Man."
All good closing ceremonies deserve cake!
