Organized by the architecture of the alphabet, Salem Stories presents 26 vignettes about the people, places, and events that made Salem, Massachusetts, the city it is today. It is a city with many stories of local, national, and international significance.  The A–Z structure creates an accessible and entertaining way to engage with Salem’s history, from past to present day. This is an evolving story, one that will continue to unfold throughout the life of the exhibition.

Salem Stories is organized by the Peabody Essex Museum.
