SUMMARY:Lecture: An Establishment of Order and Prosperity: Outsider Visitation to Moravian Bethlehem
DESCRIPTION:Lecture at the Moravian Archives\, with reception to follow\, and via Zoom (registration below)\nChristopher J. Malone\, Curator at Historic Trappe\nOur lecture series is sponsored by Campbell\, Rappold & Yurasits LLP \nThe Moravian town of Bethlehem went through a series of developmental changes that saw the community go from a closed-form of church-controlled communalism to an entirely open society. This change was precipitated by the outside world’s direct influence on the Moravian’s mission efforts towards the Native Americans. Bethlehem went from an economy based on supporting their missionary goals to one that focused on pleasing outsiders through the goods and services they provided to visitors. Outsiders flocked to Bethlehem for their health\, to be entertained\, and for the church’s international trade connections. Their new economy of goods introduced the Moravians to new textiles\, books\, and other objects\, but most importantly\, to endless cycles of the wider world’s changing tastes. Outsider visitation resulted in architectural\, spatial\, and social changes within the town and the wider Moravian community that slowly dissolved Bethlehem’s communal boundaries until the town was finally open to all. \n  \nChristopher Malone is a curator and scholar who focuses on the history and material culture of the Pennsylvania Germans with a special emphasis on the Moravians and other intentional communities. Christopher completed a Masters in Architecture at Syracuse University and a Masters in American Material Culture from the Winterthur Program. His thesis centered on the ways that outsider visitation changed Moravian material culture in the community’s first one hundred years in Pennsylvania. He won the program’s E. McClung Fleming Thesis prize for the most distinguished thesis. Christopher has worked for the Moravian Historical Society and was the curator at the American Swedish Historical Museum. He is currently the Curator at Historic Trappe\, Digital Marketing Manager at the Lutheran Archives Center at Philadelphia\, and the Content Curator for the publication Americana Insights. In his spare time\, Christopher is a columnist for Maine Antiques Digest\, and is the editor of The Daily Antiquarian\, a blog focusing on the history\, architecture\, and material culture of the American Mid-Atlantic. \n\n

SUMMARY:Coffee Hour with an Archivist: Using MAB Online Search Tools
DESCRIPTION:Topic: Using MAB Online Search Tools\nFormat: Online (Zoom)\nPresenter: Tom McCullough\, assistant archivist\nParticipants: 40 (max) \nInterested in learning more about how to identify relevant resources held in the Moravian Archives\, Bethlehem? This Coffee Hour with an Archivist focuses on helping researchers identify and access both archival materials and publications preserved in the Moravian Archives\, Bethlehem. The Online Finding Aid is the best place for researchers to look for archival materials\, such as a diary\, memoir\, meeting minutes\, or church registers. The Library Catalog\, on the other hand\, is the best place for researchers to look for books and other printed items. \nTom will start with some introductory tutorials on the Online Finding Aid and Library Catalog\, followed by an informal Q&A discussion. You’ll have ample opportunity to ask questions\, and to chat with an archivist. Even the most experienced researchers might learn something new that will help them in ongoing research in the Moravian Archives! This session will not be recorded. You will receive a Zoom link soon after registering.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Modernizing the Southern Province Moravian Archives
DESCRIPTION:online lecture by Meaghan O’Riordan\, Archivist of the Moravian Church in America\, Southern Province \nWhen Meaghan O’Riordan arrived to serve as archivist for the Moravian Archives in the Southern Province in August of 2022\, the archives had been without an archivist for two years. It was clear that this was a well-loved and treasured collection and organization that needed proper time and attention to bring operations in-line with 21st-century best practices. Materials were housed in archival boxes but not the best kind of archival boxes. There were inventories for every box but no online finding aids so users could search for what they might need. The memoir collection had been almost completely scanned\, but those scans were only available upon request. In just 2.5 years\, O’Riordan\, along with a team she has built\, has improved on all this and more. Join us on April 29\, 2025\, from 12:00 p.m. – 1:00 p.m. to learn more about the changes at the Moravian Archives in the Southern Province. \n  \n  \n
