Feb 12 – Oral Histories Virtual Workshop

February 12 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

Capturing Oral Histories Virtual Workshop

Thursday, Feb. 12, at 1:00 p.m. EST — Virtual livestream on the North Dakota State Archives Facebook page

Have you ever wanted to capture the story of a friend, family member, neighbour, or acquaintance? The North Dakota’s State Archives’ virtual workshop will inspire us to  record and preserve oral histories. The workshop will cover the fundamentals of capturing oral histories, share practical tips on how to conduct interviews, and build confidence to document personal stories.

[On February 18th, Tom Chase at the  ND Heritage Center & State Museum will show us the mastodon that lived and died in the Highgate area. Link.]

This event is part of both the ND250 commemoration of the United States’ 250th birthday this year and Vinterfest, a month-long celebration of winter on the northern Plains featuring educational programs, outdoor recreation, and cultural traditions.
