Bring a few items from your personal collection! We will kick off with an inspiring panel featuring local historians, community elders, and preservation experts. You will learn the best practices for handling, digitizing, and storing delicate photos and documents. More importantly, we’ll discuss the profound cultural significance of everyday Black history and why your family’s personal narrative is a vital piece of Tampa’s story.Registration for this event is free and includes an offer of 20% off regular gallery admission to the Tampa Bay History Center during Archives Week, July 12-18.
