Triangle Fire Open Archive

Help us build the Triangle Fire Open Archive!

We are building a people’s archive about the Triangle Factory fire and its impact on the present day. You can contribute text, images, audio and video and your submission will become an ‘object’ in the Open Archive. Be sure to include your object’s story, and what it means to you. All fields are required*.

Need a hand digitizing your object?

Live events for collecting objects will be held periodically. If you have trouble submitting online, you can contact us at: openarchive@rememberthetrianglefire.org
