TOHA’s (virtual) conference was held on September 11-12, 2020 via Zoom. Although it looked different this year, we were able to bring participants quality presentations and programming that highlighted and promoted the use and good practices of oral history research across the state.
This year we were able to engage with attendees from across the state, nation, and world. This year's conference was hosted by Baylor University Institute for Oral History which has served as the host institution for TOHA for 37 years and recently celebrated its 50th year as a program at Baylor University.
You can view the program line up here and also view the conference sessions on our YouTube page.

Join us for an exclusive documentary screen of Impact : The San Antonio Jewish Oral History Project followed by Q&A by the creators. This award-winning documentary is about the impact Jewish people had on San Antonio over the past century and is based on interviews with the men and women who have made a difference in San Antonio.
