The past few years have marked enormous growth for LHC as they move from being an organization that ‘collects and preserves’ stories of the city to one that animates these stories for current residents, researchers, and visitors to Lawrence through rich and varied programming, the strength of our collections and the power of the history of an immigrant city on the rise.</span> Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1920-1999 Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource JPEG PDF Language A language of the resource English Portuguese Type The nature or genre of the resource Image Text Still Image A static visual representation.
