Join us for Archiving our Histories: Community Digitization Day with Black Image Center!!

For our final abolitionist toolbox workshop of the year, we are partnering with Black Image Center and Madelyn Inez, owner and lead archivist of Ode2LA, for a beautiful afternoon of preserving Black and local histories. We’ll be offering free digital archiving services for the community, while fostering intergenerational storytelling, memory sharing, and cultural preservation.

Besides hands-on digitization, we will have community collage and scrapbooking stations, where participants can use materials provided to build their own art projects. This workshop will join together the practice of archiving with the opportunity for creative expression and artmaking.

This program is great for anyone looking to start their digital archiving journey and those curious about maintaining a personal and family archive.

By building our personal and community archives, we can take control of our memories and stories for generations to come. Have a family member or community member that could use some help starting their archiving journey? Bring them in!
