  • Location: Zoom
  • Date: Tuesday, November 18, 2025 from 10:00 - 11:30 AM
  • Registration Deadline: Monday, November 17, 2025

Interested in learning how to develop new partnerships in the arts and cultural digital humanities? Are you new to working with digital humanities centers as partners in fostering community-engaged social change? Join this Creative Conversation to explore how to create a collaborative and sustainable project by using digital tools to build a dynamic digital repository for research and community engagement.

This collaborative workshop will focus on two projects produced by MSU’s Matrix: Center for Digital Humanities & Social Sciences: the Michigan Stained Glass Census and Enslaved: Peoples of the Historical Slave Trade. 

The teams will explain the project origins, mutually beneficial outcomes, lessons learned, strategies for sustainable collaboration, and unexpected outcomes. Attendees will learn about the advantages of collaborating with community partners, the basics of community-engaged digital research, and how to build partnerships and foster community engagement. Participants will also be able to join a growing network of campus colleagues who are leading innovative arts and cultural creative community-engaged partnerships
