We publicize meetings through our Facebook page so be sure to follow us there.
Q: What are the meetings like?
A: Our meetings are informal and welcoming. We encourage open dialogue and value every voice in the room. You don’t need any special background in history – just enthusiasm, curiosity, and a willingness to help. We believe everyone’s perspective and experience can enhance our projects.
