Project Title
From Where We Stand: Community Storytelling and Placemaking in Eastern Arizona
Project Summary

Vanessa Fonseca-Chávez is collaborating with the Apache County Historical Society Museum and local libraries and communities to conduct storytelling and preservation workshops in rural eastern Arizona. The workshops will build on the ways the region’s Hispanic communities sustain their histories, customs, and culture, and how they communicate their querencia, or sense of belonging. Community members will participate in oral history interviews, give presentations on their personal stories of place, and digitize family and cultural documents to be shared in a series of community events and on a project website.
