Community Cataloging with Rebuild Foundation
Date and time
Location
Stony Island Arts Bank
6760 South Stony Island Avenue Chicago, IL 60649Description
Join us every Wednesday for community cataloging at the Stony Island Arts Bank. As the new home to important collections of art and architectural history, black material culture, and house music, the Stony Island Arts Bank is a de facto laboratory for new ideas about archival practice, material culture, and contemporary art. If you are interested in any of the above, join us for a weekly session of community cataloging. Guests will help sort and catalogue Rebuild Foundation’s 35mm slide collection acquired from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, while discussing best practices for archive preservation, conservation, and activation with Rebuild's visiting archivist. Sessions are free and open to the public, but space is limited. For more information please visit Rebuild's website.
