Bicentennial Photo Display

We want your old and vintage photos of Orange. Community Services will scan your photo and give it right back.

We can also accept jpeg images of your photo. Email photos to dmarsh@orange-ct.gov, call (203) 891-4789 for more information, or bring your photo by to Community Services at 525 Orange Center Rd, Orange.
