*May 1st, 2020 | 5:00-8:00pm*
It goes by different names—accompaniment, encuentro, intersubjectivity, the
list goes on—but presence has always been at the core of oral history and
we believe it always will be. Whether during an interview or listening to a
recording or reading a transcript or telling someone about any of the
above, something happens to time and space and we know in our bodies that
we are with another; that we are not alone.For the first time in our twelve
year history, OHMA is proud to present a fully digital curation of our
students’ fieldwork. Initially compelled by global uncertainty to
reconsider our usual pop-up event, we whole-heartedly embraced the
opportunity to share our work with increased access and longevity, beyond
local New York area audiences and beyond the span of two days.We invite you
to GATHER, an immersive, interactive oral history exhibit designed to
explore, challenge, ignite, and connect.On May 1 from 5:00-8:00pm EST,
we’ll host a digital-launch event
