Join us as we celebrate Home Movie Day, presented in partnership with local film conservators and preservation experts. Senior Time-Based Media Conservator for Harvard Library Preservation Services, Melanie Meents, and Film Conservator, Adrianne Jorge, will provide equipment for attendees to view and share home movies in American Ancestors’ historic rotunda with other attendees. They will also share tips and resources for digitizing and caring for your home movies. Watch family memories come to life with the company of fellow family history enthusiasts—and plenty of popcorn!
