The Northwest PA Alliance for Response has been working with Erie Arts and Culture to bring you a really special opportunity!
This summer we are working together to present: Managing Legacy Materials for Performing Arts Organizations.
This workshop has been specifically designed for staff members, board members, and volunteers from performing arts organization of all shapes and sizes. Performing arts groups are important caretakers of the cultural heritage in their communities, and we know that they also face their own unique archival challenges. We want to empower those working with these performing arts groups to be able to properly care for and protect their treasured community resources.
The worksop will address:
- how to decide the importance of documents/collections
- how to determine if/when those materials should be archived
- model workflows fro providing access to legacy materials in non-archival settings
There will be two opportunities to attend this workshop.
- The first workshop will be held Wednesday, July 17th from 9am-12pm at the Vukovich Center at Allegheny College in Meadville, PA.
- The second workshop will be on Thursday, July 18 from 1pm-4pm at the Struthers Library Theatre in Warren, PA.
