About the event

Let Me Tell You About Her
An Archiving Event Dedicated to Mothers and the Legacy They Hold in Our Communities

About this Event

Celebrate Mother’s Day by preserving the special memories and stories that have shaped your family! Join us for an afternoon workshop where we’ll explore the importance of archiving photos and personal histories, with a special focus on memories of our matriarchs. This hands-on event, hosted by Lede New Orleans, invites you to bring your cherished images of the women who have impacted your life and learn how to properly store and protect them for future generations.

We are so excited to partner with archivist Felli Maynard for this workshop, where they will guide you through the preservation process while fostering meaningful conversations about the women who have shaped our lives.


What to Bring:

  • 2-10 6x4 photographs of your maternal figures / family that you’d like to preserve
  • Any questions you may have about photo preservation
  • A spirit of connection and reflection as we celebrate the incredible matriarchs who’ve shaped our lives

While this event has limited seating, we are opening up a waiting list for interested folk who have not secured a spot. If you have any questions, would like to be added to our wait list, or are interested in volunteering for this event, please contact bWFuZHkgfCBsZWRlbm9sYSAhIG9yZw==.
