Community members are invited to the premiere of 12 oral history video shorts at 11 a.m. on Oct. 11 at the Issaquah Depot. The videos are made up of film footage and audio clips from the Oral History Video Project, along with still images and narration. The event is free and open to the public, and refreshments will be served.

The Issaquah History museums launched the oral history campaign in 2006, with funding from 4Culture, the Kiwanis Club of Issaquah and other area donors.

Oral historian Maria McLeod interviewed 25 longtime Issaquah residents, who addressed events from 1920 up to the 1990s. Eleven of those interviewed also shared stories on film, captured by videographer Lainy Bagwell. The material will soon be available at Gilman Town Hall’s research center.
