Beaver County Voices of Independence
Through the voices of the people who call it home, Voices of Independence celebrates Beaver County’s history, character and community — and explores what independence means as we look toward America’s 250th anniversary.
Behind the Production
The story behind Voices of Independence is just as important as the finished film.
Go behind the scenes to see how BCRC participants took an active role throughout the production — helping with interviews, equipment, filming and other aspects of the creative process.
Along the way, participants gained hands-on experience, built new skills and helped tell the stories of the Beaver County community in their own way.
