Join Margaret Weatherbee, Head of Collections at the Washington State Historical Society and History Museum, for an in-depth look at the digitization and preservation of the Asahel Curtis Collection.
This collection features over 42,000 images by photographer Asahel Curtis (1873-1941) that document the evolution of life in the Pacific Northwest in the early 20th century.
History Café is produced as a partnership between HistoryLink, The Pacific Northwest Historians Guild, and MOHAI.
ASL Interpretation and CART captioning are available during the program. In addition, a limited number of Assistive Listening Devices are available upon request. For more accessibility support, email [email protected] two weeks before the program.
Grab some food for thought–light food and drink will be available to purchase in the atrium.
If you can’t make it to the museum, tune in live on the MOHAI YouTube channel to virtually attend this event.
