Share Your Story
The Louisville Historical Museum invites you to share your Marshall Fire stories as a means of community healing and to help future generations of Louisville and Colorado residents understand the gravity and range of experiences of this event. The Museum is creating a community archive for future Louisvillians, researchers, and community members to use as they try to understand what it was like to experience the fire, its aftermath, and the ongoing recovery. All experiences, responses, and perspectives are welcome. We invite everyone affected by the fire to add their voice to this collective of community stories from the Marshall Fire. Use the Marshall Fire Story Session Reservation form to schedule a session.

These programs are geared for ages 13 and older. Come join the fun at Marshall ROC, 357 McCaslin, Suite 115-B, Louisville.
