Women of Colour in the Archives

Dig Where You Stand

26 June | Time: 18:30 | Venue: Soft Ground

ABOUT THE SHOW

Women of colour have long been overlooked or marginalised in local archives. Dig Where You Stand seeks to change this. Through our creative development programme, we bring women of colour together, grant access to archives after hours, and help to creatively explore our untold and overlooked stories.

Join our latest community gathering to learn more about this exciting work. Our panel of presenters and performers – all women of colour - will share their experience of exploring local archives, the stories they discovered, and creative responses they produced. This will be followed by a Q&A with the audience.

ABOUT THE COMPANY

Dig Where You Stand unearths the untold stories about people of colour who have lived, worked and put down roots in South Yorkshire over hundreds of years. We do this by exploring local archives, responding creatively to the materials within them, and sharing our work in public exhibitions, events, workshops and resources.
