2020 - Dear Stranger Introduced

  • In response to social distancing imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic, Humanities Nebraska sought new
    ways to engage our audiences that were accustomed to coming together in person. The brainchild of
    Oregon Humanities, a statewide letter-exchange project was adapted by staff to encourage people to
    reflect on their experiences and beliefs and make new connections by writing letters to
    strangers — write a letter, get a letter, and make a new connection.
