WOONSOCKET, R.I. -- The Museum of Work & Culture at 42 South Main St. is asking for the public's help in expanding its archives on Catholic schools.
For years, the museum has had a life-size replica of a Catholic school classroom with a talking nun. Now it's encouraging people who attended Catholic school anywhere in the world to donate class or group snapshots, as well as any other photos with nuns, brothers and school buildings.
Baptismal, first communion and confirmation pictures are also welcome, as well as one-page essays about going to Catholic school, or other pictures from the past.
Archivists are also looking for help in completing its collection of school yearbooks from three of the city's high schools.
