The audio project coincides with the 40th annual Africville reunion, where former residents and their descendants come together to commemorate the community. Visitors to Africville Park can now put on their headphones and listen to moving stories about the once thriving community. Paula Grant-Smith is a former resident and one of the voices that can be heard on the audio tour. While listeners can take in the audio tour anywhere, Mahon said it was important that people experience it in Africville Park. The 40th anniversary festivities are taking place at Africville Park until July 30.
