We are calling on individuals to contribute to a vital initiative aimed at preserving the rich tapestry of LGBTQ+ experiences. The “HERstory / HIStory” project invites community members to book appointments to share or update their personal stories, ensuring that these narratives become a permanent part of the historical record.Scheduled for August 16th, from 11 am to 5 pm, this dedicated day offers an opportunity for both new participants and those who have previously shared to contribute. The project emphasizes the importance of updating existing stories, recognizing that lives evolve and new perspectives emerge over time.All stories collected through the HERstory / HIStory project will be video-recorded and preserved within the LGBT Center Archives. This commitment to video documentation ensures a dynamic and accessible record for future generations.This initiative provides a crucial platform for individuals to contribute to a collective memory, ensuring that the struggles, triumphs, and everyday lives of LGBTQ+ people are not forgotten. It’s an opportunity to leave a lasting legacy and inform future understanding of LGBTQ+ history.To make an appointment and share your HERstory or HIStory, pleasecontact Randy by calling (937) 623-1590, or email randy@gaydayton.org.
