We regret that we do not have the resources to officially provide childcare, and we are aware that lack of available childcare might prevent people from attending. Children are welcome as long as they are accompanied by an adult at all times. Be aware of the potential for some sessions to cover topics not suitable for children. Food will only be provided to registered attendees, so please plan accordingly if bringing a child. Thank you for understanding and please contact Kimberly Scholl at schollkt@wfu.edu if you have any questions.

Sharon Leon, Director of Public Projects at the Roy Rosenzweig Center for History and New Media at George Mason, has agreed to teach Omeka workshops at THATCamp Piedmont 2016!

Omeka is a free, flexible, and open source web-publishing platform for the display of library, museum, archives, and scholarly collections and exhibitions. Its “five-minute setup” makes launching an online exhibition as easy as launching a blog.

Omeka is a Swahili word meaning to display or lay out wares; to speak out; to spread out; to unpack.
