Welcome to Oshkosh’s electronic scrapbook and commemoration of its 151st anniversary.

On April 5, 2003, the city of Oshkosh turned 150 years old, an anniversary that was widely and officially celebrated.

This project is an effort to develop a community scrapbook to celebrate the city as its moves toward its second sesquicentennial. We call it Oshkosh@151: An Electronic Scrapbook, and it consists of photographs taken by community members depicting Oshkosh at age 151.

If you would like to participate, please send us photos taken between April 4, 2004, when the city turned 151, and April 5, 2005.

This project is a joint effort of the Oshkosh Community News Network and the Oshkosh Public Library. All the images will eventually be archived at the public library for future generations to see.

To see photos that are currently in the scrapbook, go here.
