An Archive of Hudson’s Queer History: A Public Introduction & Celebration
On Thursday, June 6, 6-7:30pm, at the Hudson Area Library there will be a launch of the library’s LGBTQ+ Hudson History collection. This community-created archive is being done in collaboration with OutHudson. The evening celebrates its beginning and also informs people how they can participate. The library is looking for donations (or loans to digitize) of photographs, video, art, documents, ephemera, and memorabilia on Hudson’s vital queer history. History Room staff will be on hand to answer questions about how the archive will be developed and how items donated or loaned will be handled. All are welcome to attend, learn more, and engage as a community.
The archive will include oral histories of LGBTQ+ individuals and their allies. A clip from our first interviews will be played and examples of what has been collected thus far will be displayed. There will be wine and light fare served as part of our celebration of the preservation of this history.
This archive project is funded in part by the Spark of Hudson, in partnership with the Eutopia Foundation.
