Social Media #Hashtag Party - #ArchivesScience

You’re invited to the ACA Hashtag Party! On the last Thursday of every month, the ACA Social Media Team organizes a hashtag party, which takes place virtually on Facebook, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter). There is a different theme for each month, which we announce on social media and Arcan-l in advance. On the day of the party, you can share materials in your collections related to that theme, tag us and use the hashtag, and we’ll re-share your post. The goal of the parties is to engage more with institutions across Canada, see what kinds of materials other institutions have, and promote weird, fun, and interesting items from your own collections.

The ACA Hashtag Party will take a pause in December to give our volunteers a break, but we’re excited to host you again in the new year! The first few dates and themes for 2024 ACA Hashtag Parties will be as follows:

• January 25, 2024: ArchivesScience
• February 29, 2024: ArchivesBlackHistory
• March 28, 2024: ArchivesFeast
• April 25, 2024: ArchivesVolunteers
  

Keep an eye on future issues of Scope and Content and on all our social media accounts to learn more about what we’re interested in for each of these themes! 

For any questions, or if you have initiatives that you would like the ACA Hashtag Party to support, please email us at communications@archivists.ca.
