The Showcase Events
The project team launched the www.borderroadmemories.com interactive map and website during the months of October and November 2014. The team showcased the interviews recorded by local border residents, along with photos taken at the time of the road closures and newspaper articles that covered the events. Six interactive booths were provided for attendees to view interviews and explore the website.
