Join members of Librarians and Archivists with Palestine (LAP) for a tour of our exhibit Ten Years of Librarians and Archivists with Palestine at Interference Archive. The exhibit includes posters, zines, and photographs created in collaboration with the artbook house Booklyn to document our 2013 delegation to Palestine, as well as material from a decade of Palestine solidarity campaigns and activism through the lens of libraries, archives, and information access. Attendees will learn about the history of the organization, challenges faced by librarians and archivists in Palestine, and how LAP is responding to the current bombardment of Gaza.

This is an in-person event limited to 15 people. Registration is non-transferable. Please note that you MUST reserve a ticket in advance online in order to attend this event. 
On the occasion that the event is sold out, we highly recommend joining the waitlist. A member of the A.R.T. staff will reach out to you if a spot becomes available. Unless you've been given permission, please do not show up at the event without registering.


ABOUT

Founded in 2013, Librarians and Archivists with Palestine (LAP) is a network of self-defined librarians, archivists, and information workers in solidarity with the Palestinian struggle for self-determination. Over the past ten years, we have organized two delegations of information workers to Palestine, written zines and given talks, hosted reading groups on Palestinian literature, and fundraised for libraries and archives in the West Bank and Gaza. We recently published the report "Israeli Damage to Archives, Libraries, and Museums in Gaza, October 2023–January 2024". This April and May we are hosting our annual reading campaign One Book, Many Communities, which facilitates book groups around the world to read Mosab Abu Toha's Things You May Find Hidden in My Ear.
