UNDESIRABLE ELEMENTS HANOVER:
Tell your own story!
The "Undesirable Elements Hanover" performance August 9, 2002 at the Hopkins Center is composed of original personal stories contributed by members of the Upper Valley community who live here but were not born here. Our community is made richer by the accounts of those who live here, and we’d like your stories, too!

Do you live in ther Upper Valley but were born in a different country? Share your answers to the questions below and they will be posted on this website.

This project has been made possible in part by the National Endowment for the Arts and the Tucker Foundation at Dartmouth College.
 

Your Name (optional):


Where were you born?


Are there any stories about the day of your birth?


What do you miss about your country?


What do you think about when you hear the name of your country of origin (please be as descriptive as possible)?


Do you have a story to share about first coming to the United States or to the Upper Valley?
