The Neighborhood Historians project addresses the imperative need for community-centered history-gathering. In addition to documenting community memory, we hope to foster a sense of belonging and cultural ownership among Santa Feans, providing space for Santa Feans to tell their own stories on their own terms. Through community workshops, storybooths, and skills training, the Neighborhood Historians project seeks to empower Santa Feans to become co- creators of a rich living history, encouraging community dialogue, healing, and the collective determination of where our story goes from here.
