In the spring of 2022, as the restrictions of Covid quarantines and lockdowns began to recede, local high school students sat down with longtime residents of the North Fork Valley to talk about their lives, their experiences, and their many points of view. These interviews were recorded, and a number of them were included in a program at Paonia’s Paradise Theater called “Crossing the Generational Divide” on June 3rd.

That film is now available online, and we are including access to the complete and, for the most part, unedited conversations on this page. If the program continues, we hope to host additional conversations here as well.
