Snapshots in Time
26 April, 4pm-5pm
Snapshots in Time is a state-based community project aimed at enabling organisations and groups to conserve photographic collections by digitisation and then share them online, Australia wide. Images of social, political, contemporary and/or historical events of national significance are prime targets. Many of these are tucked away safely, hidden from view and the light-of-day, but will receive a new lease on life through this endeavour. The project networks like-minded individuals & groups together to share costs, resources, training & expertise.
