<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">We wanted to share an initiative created and funded by the Regional District of the North Okanagan, and administered by the Greater Vernon Museum and Archives with materials
and support from partners across the area. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">We have created an online portal of cultural, historical, and natural resources from not-for-profits across the North Okanagan. Our goal is to encourage people to stay home and
do their part to flatten the curve by providing free, educational materials that can be accessed from the comfort of one’s home. The portal is constantly evolving as new material is added and new partners come onboard. Moreover, a large emphasis of the portal
is to encourage community members to submit their own content, whether it is art creations, photographs, videos, or short writing pieces about their experiences in isolation.
