Picturing Nam will debut at our event on Nov. 12, 2016 in the Center of Progress Building from 9 a.m.- 3p.m. The exhibit is currently in production at the National Archives.


Photographs are a powerful part of our collective memory of the Viet Nam War. Many of the iconic photographs were taken by photojournalists working for newspapers, magazines,  or wire services. But there were also military photographers in Vietnam serving in our armed forces. they took thousands of photographs that covered every aspect of the conflict - photographs that are no part of our National Archives. Unsanitized and uncensored, these indelible images give an intimate and ground up view of the war and those who fought it.

After the CNY Veterans Parade and Expo, Picturing Nam will be at Onondaga Community College until Jan. 7, 2017
