Dear Colleagues,
The SAA Performing Arts Section is happy to announce our second Meet & Greet for 2025/2026 on January 8, 2026 @1:00PM EST / 10:00AM PST.
The Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) is the country's longest running performing arts institution (1861). The BAM Hamm Archives, after many fits and starts, moved in September 2024 to a new modern archival space. This talk will discuss the history of BAM, the Archives, their recent move, and discuss their database, Collective Access.
Our guest will be Senior Archives Manager Louie Fleck, who has been at BAM since 2009, and has had many careers including designer, recording engineer, producer, photographer, composer, and archivist.

As usual, please feel free to share with anyone you think may be interested. We hope to see you there in 2026!
Best wishes,
