Caroline Charles & Jessica Terry-Elliott are here to talk about Family Pictures Syracuse: a collaboration between Syracuse’s Turning the Lens Collective and The Family Pictures Institute for Inclusive Storytelling to assemble an archive for social justice in the city of Syracuse. Listen now on George Kilpatrick Inspiration for the Nation!
Family Pictures Syracuse is a collaboration between Syracuse’s Turning the Lens Collective and The Family Pictures Institute for Inclusive Storytelling to assemble an archive for social justice in the city of Syracuse. The Turning the Lens Collective recognizes that the photographs we take, display in our homes, or keep in family albums are sites for public memory—windows into stories that too often go unseen and underwritten. With our Family Pictures Syracuse project, we seek to inspire our city to narrate the stories our images hold to ensure that our histories are not lost or overlooked. We believe that working toward a living community photo archive will benefit our city’s residents as its very existence will assert that everyone, especially our most vulnerable members, have always and will continue to have a stake in Syracuse’s shared local history, our present, and our future.
Syracuse’s Turning the Lens Collective is collaborating withThe Family Pictures Institute for Inclusive Storytellingto launch Family Pictures Syracuse: an initiative to assemble an archive for social justice in our local community. Join us at the Everson Museum for a weekend of events dedicated to amplifying the stories that exist in our everyday photographs. All events are free and open to the public!
