Audio-Visual Preservation Trust of Canada's Music Memories
This year, the Society received funding support from
The Audio-Visual Preservation Trust of Canada’s Music
Memories Program for a project to begin making the
material in the museum’s collection more accessible to the
public. Since forming in 1991, the Society has acquired and
housed recordings, documents, and videos by and about Hank
and many other country music artists, along with the
memorabilia which is on display in the museum. One of the
project’s goals is to make more of that increasingly rare
material available to visitors, and look toward digitizing
portions of the collection to post and share on the website.
The A-V Trust works in co-operation with museums all over
Canada to help ensure the preservation of historic
recordings and media for future generations, and the Society
was fortunate to benefit from the Trust’s Music Memories
program, made possible by support from the Department of
Canadian Heritage.
