Current Exhibit - Punta Gorda Through the Lens of Old Postcards
From the earliest days of the town, postcards, which blossomed in the late 1880s, were an integral part of communications with friends and family in distant places. As time went on and Punta Gorda became in part a tourist destination, visitors sent them as mementos of their travels through Florida. Now these old postcards represent an important visual and written link to Punta Gorda’s past. In this exhibit their importance to the historical record of the town will be illustrated and the role of postcards will be discussed in programs throughout the year.
