Established in 2016, the Community Histories Workshop (CHW) works with local communities to recover, preserve, and share memories, stories, and materials that reflect the multi-layered histories of place. By helping to connect past to present we believe that communities can envision more just, inclusive, and democratic futures. Learn more about us by reading our statement of principles.
From its founding until 2025, the CHW was affiliated with the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. We are now based in the College of Liberal Arts at Auburn University.
