Community/Personal Archiving workshop for Diasporic Communites

This hands-on archiving workshop designed for diasporic community members, and any archive beginners will introduce them to the basics of organizing and preserving personal and collective histories. Archivists from the Haitian Studies Institute, Center for Puerto Rican Studies, and the CUNY Dominican Studies institute shared knowledge on caring for physical and digital records, from diaries and photos to meeting notes, member lists, oral histories and protest banners. Participants learned practical archiving techniques, including organizing and storage, to ensure their histories remain accessible for future generations. Free Personal Archival Kits will be provided while supplies last
