RDP recruiting storytellers for Saturday's Nickel Plate Music and Arts Fest

Rochester Downtown Partnership's is in the midst of a search for knowledgable members in the community who are willing to share the history and stories of downtown Rochester continues. 

RDP member Chad Hisey says originally called for a panel discussion at The Times Theater on August 27. However, the team is still on the hunt for community members willing to share their memories of the past.

Incorporating the upcoming Nickel Plate Music and Arts Festival on August 26 with their quest for knowledge, RDP will be setting up a booth during the festival to interview those wanting to share their story.

 

Teaming up with RTC for their booth, interviews for Saturday are already starting to be lined up. 

Once stories are collected, Hisey said RDP plans on hosting multiple nights at The Times Theater to highlight specific subjects, businesses, and stories of downtown Rochester's past. 

Those interested in joining RDP for an interview at their booth on Saturday, can set an appointment time by calling or texting Hisey at 574-201-8857.
