Join Invisible Histories for this free virtual workshop wherein we will cover ways that you can prepare ahead of dangerous weather to protect your personal documents and history. We will also cover what to do should your items be damaged through flooding or fire.

This workshop is free and open to the public. We expect the workshop to take 45 mins to 1 hour but ask that you allow for up to 1.5 hours for us to answer audience questions.

A zoom link will be sent out to those who register the day before the event. You will be asked to sign into a zoom account in order to enter.

This event is free, but you can support our work and make future events like this possible by making a suggested donation of $10-20 dollars. This donation contributes directly to our work to preserve southern LGBTQ history.

Spots are limited so please do not register if you cannot make it. No AI or notetakers will be allowed in.

Invisible Histories focuses on four key elements related to advancing LGBTQ Southern History:

Community Engagement
Archiving, Preservation, Research & Scholarship
Education
Professional Development & Best Practices

Invisible Histories acts as an intermediary between institutions, organizations, and everyday folks. We strive to break barriers between organizations and their local communities to ensure that preservation and research exist in a co-productive and relationship centered way. In addition to direct collection and preservation, Invisible Histories is invested in providing scholars with direct access to materials as well as creating a network of people conducting LGBTQ Southern archiving, preservation, education and research to make scholarship more accessible. We focus on providing education around the Queer South to those within and outside the region through speaking, exhibiting, online materials, and publications. Finally, Invisible Histories seeks to help develop a new generation of scholars working in the Queer South as well as work alongside other professionals in the field to develop best practices for this work.
