Capturing Alberta’s Stories
Know History would like to extend our appreciation to Jenna Bailey for speaking at our Capturing Alberta’s Stories workshop yesterday! Along with Thomas Van Dewark, Dr. Bailey shared how to effectively conduct oral history interviews for documentary films. We are grateful to her and Tom for sharing their expertise with our local community. This event was made possible by the Government of Alberta and the Heritage Preservation Partnership Program.
