Join us for a public discussion on contemporary archival processes presented in partnership with the Field Museum’s Philippine Heritage Collection. Panel participants include artists, educators, and archivists who are interested in documenting oral traditions and re-examining our current systems of preserving cultural memory. On view will be a selection of objects curated by Alejandro T. Acierto from the Museum’s Philippines Collection highlighting the practical and theoretical aspects of data collection.

Admissions to the Museum will be waived for those who RSVP in advance Please be sure to include the names of everyone in your party when you RSVP. RSVP at the Eventbrite link below.
