#OnThisDay two years ago, we closed our doors for six months as the COVID-19 pandemic took hold. Our archiving work, however, didn't stop. While working remotely, MCHC staff launched the "Collecting in Quarantine" initiative as a call to Marylanders to submit written accounts, photographs, and physical objects to help us document this moment in history. These images represent just a sampling of the many submissions we have received. As we hit the two-year mark of COVID, what can you submit to our archive to help future generations understand this time in our history and how it impacted everyday life? Read instructions for sending us your stories through the “Collecting in Quarantine” tab in our bio. Images: COVID comics, by C. Ryan Patterson; student letter courtesy of Milan; flier for social distancing party, photo by Mallory; outdoor art class, photo by Bill Tata. #CollectingInQuarantineMD #BusinessUnusualMD #LettersFromtheHomeFrontMD #CovidLife #LifeDuringCovid19
