Why do archiving practices matter for communities like Lopez, and what role can they play in passing knowledge between generations and places? Archives are increasingly under threat, yet they remain powerful tools for protecting what matters. This interactive workshop, facilitated by Clara Ewert and Breton Carter, archivists who both grew up on Lopez, moves from theory to community practice.
Open to everyone, the workshop is designed for those interested in starting a personal archive, learning about the archiving process, or getting involved with local archival projects like those at
the Lopez Island Museum.
