Intro to Family Archives: Preserve and Organize Your Documents & Keepsakes
Bring some of your family photos and documents to this hands-on class, where professional archivists will teach you how to store, organize and catalog your family collection. In this class, we’ll discuss what makes up a family archive, show you the road map of how to organize your collection so it’s easily accessible and start you doing the work right then.
Archivists Hilarie Pozesky and Claire Mokrauer-Madden, co-founders of Sepia Archival Management, have worked with the archives of the Chicago Public Art Group, the American Society for Surgery of the Hand, and the Institute for the Study of Ancient Cultures at the University of Chicago, as well as their archival collections. They are both passionate about making historical documents available and findable to all.
We will have light snacks and two drink tickets are included in registration. We will also have pieces from Cheney Mansion's own history as examples!
