CAS Exhibit. Making Armenian Americans - Project Save Photograph Archive/Archive Alive Project
10th Floor Gallery, Weiser Hall from February 2 to April 30, 2026
Monday, February 16, 2026
8:00 AM-4:00 PM
Making Armenian Americans invites viewers into a moment of possibility in the early 20th century, when Armenians fleeing violence at the end of the Ottoman Empire came to reinvent themselves in the promise of America. Drawn from the archives of Project Save, these photographs capture different valences of American life, as experienced, performed, and imagined by Armenian immigrants. From naturalization classes to festivals of nations, from breaking new ground for churches to mundane tableaus of Thanksgiving and Christmas, this range of photographs offers a glimpse of a community in the making, one that sought to preserve a memory of its Ottoman past even while anticipating an American future.
