Capture this unique moment in history for future generations by sharing your COVID-19 pandemic experience with us.
The Westerville History Center & Museum provides access to the past through historical collections and learning experiences that deepen our understanding of our community and its place in the world. Everything we know about the past comes from the surviving records of people just like you, and your contributions will help future generations and historians make sense of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Westerville’s reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic bears some resemblance to the 1918 flu pandemic, but this is unlike anything Americans living today have ever experienced. Although we don’t know what they are yet, the pandemic will have long-term consequences for Westerville, the state of Ohio, and the country.
Thank you for helping us preserve COVID-19’s legacy for the Westerville community.
