On May 2 & 3, 2014, the community was invited to photograph Northampton, Florence and Leeds during a 48 hour period. Over 1000 photographs were submitted to the project website, hosted by eclecTechs. This digital record of the city in 2014 will be archived at Historic Northampton and Forbes Library. Midnight to Midnight: Northampton's Self-Portrait in 48 Hours is a collaboration of Historic Northampton, the Northampton Photography Group and Forbes Library. Thanks to Florence Savings Bank, Jake's and eclecTechs for their generous support of this project.
