OPEN DURHAM – Volunteer Events | July 2020

Preservation Durham is the proud steward of OpenDurham.org, an incredibly rich, entirely volunteer-run community archive committed to documenting this cit’s people and places – its past and present – to preserve and pass along for the future. To keep that commitment, we need the voices of Durham old-timers and newcomers, writers and researchers, programmers and designers, intervieweres and photographers, neighbors and explorers. In short, we need you!
Working with Open Durham can be a great way to stay invovled in spite of restrictions on public gatherings brought on by the pandemic.
