 Together, A Community Celebration of Our Shared History

This Fall, we invite you to join us in a celebration of community.

As the nation celebrates its 250th anniversary this year, we find it important to zoom in and focus on the individual stories within our own community that make us unique but also similar to communities across the country. In times of uncertainty as well as times of ease, a connection with one’s community is invaluable.
Our new exhibit, Together, will highlight DeKalb County citizens through photographs, oral histories, an all-ages interactive activity, and artifacts from our collection.

Please consider participating in this exhibit

We are asking current, and former residents of DeKalb County to share their fondest memories with us via photographs. The memories you share can be from any location and may be included in Together, set to open in September 2026. Those who donate pictures or items to be included in the exhibit will be invited to attend the VIP Opening Reception!

How to share your photos for the exhibit:

  1. Upload your photo via Google Forms here.
  2. Email your photo to selem@dekalbhistory.org and include a short caption (date and location, if known).
  3. Bring your photo to the DeKalb History Center – we will scan it and give it back to you.
