Highlighting New Voices from Natick's Past

Historically, societies like the Natick Historical Society have focused on collecting artifacts and documents telling stories about wealthy and influential people. “While these stories are important,” NHS Director Niki Lefebvre says, “there is much more to tell about Natick’s past.” In 2021, the NHS will focus on developing new ways to build trust among historically underrepresented groups, including Black and Indigenous people, people of color, and immigrant communities. “We want to start working towards painting a more inclusive and accurate picture of Natick’s history,” Lefebvre says.
