One-Day Oral History Training Workshops with OHMA
Join Columbia University for an intensive day of workshops with OHMA faculty and alumni!
The second round of ONE-DAY ORAL HISTORY TRAINING WORKSHOPS are on Saturday, May 5, 2018, from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Location: Columbia University (Knox Hall)
Registration: $25 – 100 per workshop, sliding scale
For their oral history workshops, please pay what you can. We suggest $25 for students, recent graduates, or others who are financially constrained, while we suggest that professionals and those with more resources should pay more.
