'Then And Now' Outdoor Photo Exhibit Returns In Yardley

YARDLEY, PA —"Then and Now."

It's "The Way We Were," Yardley Historical Association President Susan Taylor said, in announcing that a display of 30 photographs taken of places in Yardley Borough in the early to mid-1900s, is coming back to town.

Each image will be on display at the location where it was originally photographed so that passersby can enjoy a "then and now" experience, Taylor said.

The outdoor exhibit is being sponsored by two local non-profit organizations —the Yardley
Historical Association and Experience Yardley —to encourage people to visit downtown and
further explore its rich and colorful past.

The exhibit will be on display from July 15 until Aug. 14.

The Yardley Historical Association is responsible for the preservation of the iconic Old Library by
Lake Afton and maintains a collection of materials, including maps, photographs, newspapers,
letters, deeds, and ephemera, related to the Yardley area.

Experience Yardley, producers of Music Off Main, 2nd Saturdays, Yardley Restaurant Week, and
Canal-O-Ween, engages in creating and managing community events and placemaking projects
that show off the borough’s charm, natural assets, and vibrant downtown.
