19 | 2024-10-23T16:21:00+00:00 | Portland City Auditor <Portland.Auditor@info.portland.gov> | Thanks for joining us at the City Archives | Portland City Archives & Records Management would like to thank everyone who joined us at Building Bridges: A City Archives Open House on Saturday, October 12. We were excited to see over 200 people attend and engage with their history through the City Archives. If you have not already, please complete our survey to let us know how we can better serve you at future events. Attendees participated in games, recorded stories in our oral history booth, scanned materials at the scanning station, interacted with archival items, and participated in behind-the-scenes tours of the archives stacks. We were honored to host community legends Mr. Norman "Boogie Cat" Sylvester, Sr., and “Mayor of Albina” Mr. Paul Knauls, Sr. (pictured), who had the audience laughing and singing. We are grateful to them for sharing the history of the thriving Albina music scene that Albina Music Trust works tirelessly to preserve. We would also like to thank our community partners Oregon Queer History Collective, Vanport Mosaic, and Don't Shoot PDX as well as our colleagues in the Auditor's Office for working with us on this event.
