COVID-19 Story Project

The COVID-19 Story Project is a collection of images, written works, and audiovisual works that document the experience of LaGuardia Community College members throughout the COVID-19 Pandemic.

As the pandemic continues we are still collecting materials. If you would like to contribute something that represents your experience during this difficulty time, please visit our submission form here: https://shortlib.org/s/covidstories

Out the Window, I've seen.
Out the Window, I've seen.
My Intro to Creative Writing class wrote a collaborative poem, "Out the Window, I've Seen." It's an Urban Studies Course, and in normal times we compose pieces based on urban observations (field trips, etc.). Since we're staying at home, we wrote a poem about things that we've seen from our windows, each person contributing a line. The names of my students are on the attached document.

Sleeping dog
During the time staying at home and in between disinfecting every single surface that might’ve been touched, or fashioning masks out of shirts and scarves so as to not take, God forbid, and accidental whiff of outside air, I’ve been working on making more art. Attached is a mini 4x6 canvas painting of my dog (who is very happy that I’m at home more). He takes a lot of naps, so here’s one of his sleeping positions.
