The Perry-Mansfield Performing Arts School and Camp Archive represents over a century of Northwest Colorado and Modern Dance history. The collection consists of various formats, including photographs, correspondence, and ephemera, and measures roughly 50 linear feet. Series 11: “Scrapbooks”, includes 32 collections of photographs, camp programs, and journal entries that include the school’s founding in 1914. These objects were the focus of the preservation and access effort. The physical preservation, arrangement, and description of these materials was the first phase of this long-term project.. Development of an Encoded Archival Description (EAD) finding aid is ongoing. Next steps include focused digitization, acquisition efforts, and community outreach. Future work will allow this previously inaccessible and deteriorating collection to endure over time and supplement related collections in the region.
