Inside the Archives: The Art of Then

How can stories from the past inspire today’s activist storytelling? Join What Cheer Writers Club for Inside the Archives: The Art of Then online Wed, Sept 28 at 7pm to learn how to access sources of inspiration in Rhode Island’s collections. Archivists from Rhode Island Black Heritage Society, Rhode Island Historical Society, Rhode Island State Archives, Tomaquag Museum, and Wanderground Lesbian Archives/Library will showcase artifacts from our state’s activist movements and offer insight into their collections, including how local writers can access materials to support, inspire and substantiate their creative projects.
