The Scottish Council on Archives is delighted to present our latest education and outreach workshops. Following on from the success of previous events, these two stand-alone workshops will explore creative and innovative ways to encourage engagement with collections.
Sight and Sound, Edinburgh, 26 October 2016
Creative approaches to using archives in Learning and Outreach programmes, specifically looking at
· graphic arts and collage
· using sound recording and mixing to explore archives.
A day's collaborative and hands-on training split into two halves.
In the morning we look at techniques for presenting information through themed collage pictures using printed and digitised archive records.
In the afternoon we explore techniques in simple sound recording and mixing to create pleasing soundscapes to enhance exhibitions, and to engage students and adult groups with archive records in unusual ways.
When: Wednesday 26 October, 09:30-16:00
Where: New Register House, 2 Princes Street, Edinburgh, EH1 3YY
Cost: £15 for SCA Members, £20 for non-members
Oh, What A Creative War!, 9 November 2016, Glasgow
A practical and collaborative workshop focused on World War One records. We begin with an opportunity to learn about and share our experience of creative and engaging learning and outreach projects focused on World War One archive records. We will then look in more detail at some learning projects using creative approaches to using WW1 records such as drama, sound, photography and graphic arts, and use some of these approaches to create activities and materials of our own.
When: Wednesday 9 November 2016, 09:30-16:00
Where: Mitchell Library, North Street, Glasgow G3 7DN
Cost: £15 for SCA Members, £20 for non-members
