Hear, Here Arboretum is a project which gives a voice to familiar spaces we move through daily. Any location, from a specific stand of trees to an unremarkable park bench, can be transformed by the stories we tell about them. Once these stories are heard, they can change the way we think about and experience spaces and the community they encompass. 

 

We know some history of The Arboretum, but there are still hidden stories of the relationship between the area and everyday people who make up our community. Hear, Here allows us to access this social history and to think about where our community has been and where it is going.
