Collecting Memories
Exploring oral history and reminiscence in the South East
Friday 24 October 11.00am – 3.30pm
The Marine, Tankerton, Whitstable, Kent (sea views available in the lunch break!)
What makes a good oral history project? What is the difference between oral history and reminiscence? How can museums, libraries and archives work with their local communities on this? Where do we get the money?
Meet other people working on oral history and reminiscence to learn from them and share information. Find out more about funding, networks and resources.
Hear about recent and ongoing projects: Telling Whitstable’s Story; the Coalfield Initiative – Kent; Words and Wings, a Guide to Creative Reminiscence.
Keynote speaker:
Rob Perks, Curator of Oral History & Director of the National Life Story Collection, British Library
