Saving Your Family Photos
Learn how to identify, preserve, and interpret the old photographs in your personal collection! We will
rethink the role photography has had in our lives and develop a plan so you can confidently manage
your collection, even if it includes thousands of images. This is a quick-paced, introductory workshop
that incorporates authentic examples of 19th and 20th century images.
Attendees will:
--Learn the basics of the history of photography and photographic processes.
--Be challenged to think about photographic images in new ways and explore the many things
that can be learned from a single image.
--Learn how to best preserve, store, share, and display photographs to keep them safe, organized,
and accessible for future generations.
Each workshop comes with a specialized resource guide that is made available to all attendees.
