WOMEN’S LEATHER HISTORY PROGRAM<br />
WLHP<br />
The Women’s <strong>Leather</strong> History Project continued as a multi-year project through 2015, when<br />
the LA&M decided to extend our commitment to collecting, preserving, and exhibiting women’s<br />
leather history by transforming the project into a program. Rather than continuing to focus on<br />
short term, project-based deliverables, the change to a program adds vision and scope to the<br />
WLHP.<br />
The Women’s <strong>Leather</strong> History Program (WLHP) at the <strong>Leather</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> & <strong>Museum</strong> is an ongoing<br />
program created to generate strategic initiatives linked to programmatic vision, fundraising,<br />
collections development, facilitate exhibit updates, generate digital content related to women’s<br />
leather history, and sustain and continue to develop relationships with leather communities,<br />
organizations, and clubs who are integral in the development of dynamic women’s collections.<br />
The <strong>Leather</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> & <strong>Museum</strong> is very excited about this change, and what it means for sustainability<br />
and long-term commitment to collecting women's leather history.<br />
