Background

Scope and content:

The Lavender Scrolls Project is a community arts and social service outreach project born of a collaboration between the Lavender Seniors of the East Bay and the California Council for the Humanities in 2007. The collection contains the audio cassettes of the interviews, smaller versions of the scrolls, and other project materials. Box 1 contains transcripts of oral histories, photographs of participants, a set of mini scrolls, newspaper articles about the project and DVD footage of events where the scrolls were displayed. Box 2 contains oral history tapes for eight subjects living in the East Bay.
