This half-day virtual workshop will help history practitioners at institutions of all types and sizes learn how to communicate about their work more effectively. Whether you need to write fundraising letters, make advocacy calls, speak with the media, or simply update your website, this workshop is for you. Drawing on research from AASLH’s Reframing History project, this workshop will help you communicate with public audiences more effectively and build a wider understanding of the value of history and history organizations. This workshop will include an overview of research findings, discussions about major challenges in communicating history with colleagues from around the country, and and – most importantly – an opportunity to begin crafting your own communications materials.
