Civic 50th Anniversary

Come celebrate with us as the City of Salem’s Civic Center turns 50 years old! On August 18, the City of Salem’s Civic Center celebration of architecture, people, art, and history will take place. The Civic Center has been nominated for listing on the National Registrar of Historic Places due to its representation of Salem’s community planning and development in the 1960s and 1970s. If you, or someone you know, had a part in the 1972 opening, or memories during its lifetime, please share your memories and photos at the following link: What were you doing in 1972?
