We are seeking bystanders, policemen, demonstrators, delegates, photographers, students and individuals to share their memories and experiences about this explosive event in American political history.
Beginning Tuesday, August 26, and ending Friday, August 29, the museum invites individuals for interviews between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. These dates mark the fortieth anniversary of the historic convention.
