Join us for Snacks & Stacks at the Cranbrook Archives, an opportunity for MAA members to explore an archival institution in the Metro Detroit region of Michigan! On May 15th at 11am, we’ll take a guided tour of the stack areas and visit the reading room for a behind-the-scenes look at how Cranbrook stores, preserves, and organizes their collections.
After the tour and project talk (at approximately 12:00pm), enjoy a relaxed lunch networking session at a local restaurant where you can:
Grab a bite to eat
Connect with fellow archivists, students, and professionals
Share experiences and insights about working in archives
Discuss best practices, challenges, and innovations in the field
Participants may also explore the exhibitions on the lower level of the museum, which cover Cranbrook's history and include items from the Archives.
Whether you’re new to archives or a seasoned professional, Snacks & Stacks Metro Detroit is a fun, informative way to see another archival institution in our State. Come curious and come hungry!
