The Accidental Archive: A Community Workshop with Divya Mehra

Join us for an interactive workshop led by writer and artist DIvya Mehra, as we glean through our own personal archives and ask questions about value, the mundane, and what it means to choose to embrace our own archival practice. This workshop is part of our Open Access exhibition programming. Refreshments will be served. Open Access is supported by the National Endowment for the Arts and the Graham Foundation. Our work is made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature, and by the Goldman Sachs Office of Corporate Engagement through a grant recommended by Goldman Sachs Community Development Grants Program. ​​​​Notice of Access, Filming, and Photography Van Alen is committed to ensuring that all of our events are inclusive and accessible for all participants.
