On Friday, June 8, we will celebrate International Archives Day under the slogan "Archives: Governance, Memory and Heritage", which places special emphasis on the conception of archives as a basic source of information by providing highly relevant data for the best knowledge of the economy, politics, society and culture of humanity. Because archives are part of our culture, but they are also a fundamental instrument for good governance and transparency. In
this edition, and after the good reception of the initiative in 2017, The Canary Museum and the Provincial Historical Archive of Las Palmas join again this commemoration organizing a joint visit. Our itinerary will begin at 11:00 am. in The Canary Museum, where we will value our important archive of Canarian music and composers, and conclude in the Provincial Historical Archive of Las Palmas "Joaquín Blanco", where we will have the opportunity to know how it works and what is guarded in such institutions, also with special emphasis on t
heir musical backgrounds. The International Archives Council (ICA-CIA) established 9 June in 2007 as the date for international Archives Day, since it was 9 June, but 1948, when the agency was founded under the auspices of UNESCO. Being this year on June 9 Saturday, international Archives Day will be celebrated on Friday 8.S
