Oral History Workshop from the State Archives of North Carolina

-

The State Archives welcomes you to join us at one of our two upcoming workshops to learn about oral history and the oral history projects we are currently working on. Each workshop will offer 2 sessions:

  • Session A – a 2-hour session on general oral history best practices, meant for anyone who is thinking about starting their own oral history project. (10am-12pm)
  • Session B* – a 2 ½ hour session on how to be a volunteer interviewer for State Archives projects.  (1:00pm-3:30pm)

We are currently collecting interviews for two major projects:

  1. “She Changed the World” – focused on interviewing notable women around the State.
  2. Military Collection interviews – designed to document and provide access to the memories and experiences of military servicemen and servicewomen from the state of North Carolina.

*Please note, if you plan to attend Session B you must also attend Session A. Refreshments will be served but lunch is BYO.

Registration form available online.
