Extra! Extra! ѻý I read it in the Record!
Thatѻýs the name of a new exhibit coming to the Okanagan Heritage Museum in Kelowna.
Travel back in time to 1908 when the first publication of the Orchard City Record newspaper was put out.
ѻýReading the headlines from the Orchard City Record is quite the experience,ѻý said curatorial manager Amanda Snyder. ѻýMore than a hundred years later, many of the headlines are still relatable and engaging. Some reveal what mattered to residents, while others illustrate how much has changed ѻý or, in some cases, how much remains the same. Itѻýs a great snapshot of our cityѻýs history, and Iѻým sure residents and visitors will find it very interesting.ѻý
The exhibit will showcase a variety of stories from the Orchard City Record, archival photos and artifacts. Attendees can even try their hand at type-setting.
Extra! Extra! opens on April 20. Admission to the museum is by donation.
