1 | INTRO

Who are the people of Gorham? What were their lives like? What difference did it all make?

How did Gorham shape our memories? An old Gorham advertisement, an honorary cup, and a trip to a statue they left behind hold clues.

3 | CARE

Take your seat at a table set with silver. There’s going to be a dinner party.

4 | Labor

A peek onto the factory floor. A glimpse of the hands that made all of this silver.

5 | PLACE

Exploring the land where Gorham’s factory once sat. Past, present and future.
