2014 Flashback: Archives
From a massive bank of images in the Los Angels Public Library's Shades of L.A. photo archive to an exhaustive collection of works by Oscar Wilde housed at the Clark Library, archives are preserving the heritage of our society for future generations. Today, we look back at five of 2014's featured articles about archives. On New Year's Day at 1 PM PST on KCET-TV, we will be airing a three-hour Artbound Marathon which will feature a mash up of our episodes from this year. We hope you enjoy catching up on all the artistic discussions and activities that pervaded arts and culture in 2014.
