Frozen in Time; Historic Photographs in the GHS Collection

Description

Gresham Historical Society presents Frozen in Time; Historic Photographs in the GHS Collection

Free lecture. Collections manager Silvie Andrews will talk about some of the most interesting photos in the Gresham Historical Society's collection. This lecture will cover a cross-section of photos in our collection, starting in the 1860s and finishing in the present-day.

You'll learn how we date photos using context clues; discover additional details about photos with no provenance; and decide which photos contribute to our mission to collect, preserve, and interpret the history of Gresham and the surrounding communities. We will also discuss the Society's long-term goals for our photo collection.
