COVID-19 and the Impact on Boca Grande
The Boca Grande History Center is the primary caretaker for our island’s history, and thus it was imperative that we document how the current medical crisis is impacting Boca Grande. In addition to collecting print materials and photographs, the History Center in a project partnership with Rick Montgomery of Island TV has completed a filmed documentary containing images and interviews.
