Author
  • Jeannette Allis Bastian (Simmons College)

Abstract

The relationship between archives and collective memory is explored through the archival collections of the MacDowell Colony, an artists' retreat in New Hampshire. The author examines expanding concepts of provenance in determining how the collective memory uniting this collection guides its organization and access.
