Curator Tour of Beyond the Frame
Join co-curators Alyssa Habig, Registrar and Collection Manager, and Anna Jacobson, Digitization Technician, for a tour of Beyond the Frame: Highlights from the HRM Archive, which showcases more than a century of everyday life and perseverance in Yonkers, as well as the HRM’s vital role in its cultural scene. They will discuss the historical photographs on view and the story of how they are being made accessible to the public for the first time.
The project was made possible by a matching grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) Museums for America program. Additional funding for this ongoing project is generously provided by Samantha Merton and Brett Humphreys, and the John and Evelyn Trevor Foundation.
