DHPSNY DIALOGUE

Undertold Stories: Making the Invisible Visible

Date:?Thursday, March 13, 2025

Time:?2:00 PM – 4:00 PM

Cost: Free and open to all

Telling inclusive histories requires a deeper understanding of the people and perspectives that shape our communities — helping us recognize what is missing and what frameworks of trust and communication need to be established. This interactive program invites participants to question and identify whose stories are missing from their collections, discern which of their contemporary communities are visible and which are invisible, and explore strategies to protect vulnerable groups while preserving their narratives.
