µç³µÎÞÂë

Are you a long-time Bronzeville resident? Do you have a story about your experiences with Illinois Institute of Technology?

We are looking to capture—via audio recording and film—the personal stories of individuals of all ages who have lived on µç³µÎÞÂë’s South Side and have had direct experiences with Illinois Tech in Bronzeville since it opened its doors in 1893.

We will hold a series of sessions to begin gathering stories, and the first session will be held at the Bronzeville Historical Society.

These new short films are part of a broader initiative comprising an exhibition, website, and book produced by Ashley Lukasik of MurMur Ring and Southside filmmaker Carlos Javier Ortiz.
