Arts and culture, through the artists and organizations that bring them to life in communities, have a vital role to play in recovery from disasters and enable us to move from victimhood to personhood, even if only for a moment, and help us rebuild the social
 infrastructure of our individual and community lives. This webinar focuses on how artists and arts organizations can engage in this work. It provides a background in basic disaster management principles, shares good practices, gives guiding principles, brief
 how-tos, and resources for further study. Rebuilding social infrastructure strengthens communities’ abilities to move forward after disasters. Learn how to be part of the process and gain a seat at the table in your community’s recovery.<br>

- Understand what materials are considered historical<br>
