Harbor Voices

During the summer of 2020, Harbor Voices Public Art collaborated with Lynn’s Beyond Walls to create a platform for youth storytelling and creative expression during the pandemic. In a critical moment in world history, youth voices of Lynn shared the pain, the resilience, and the strength it took to survive the circumstances of a pandemic. 

Community partners like the YMCA, Boys & Girls Club, the Haven Project, Family & Child Services of Greater Lynn, and Girls Inc. participated in storytelling, writing, drawing, and spoken word workshops to create a city-wide exhibition called Truth Be Told. In July 2021, Truth Be Told culminated with an immersive light and sound installation featuring an audio documentary of over 100 voices describing their personal experience of living through 2020.
