Welcome to AΣΤ Eras!
In honor of our 125th Anniversary, the first ever AΣΤ museum was staged at the 45th National Convention for attendees to explore and learn more about the Sorority. Members could look through photos, get up close with artifacts, see Badges and jewelry, learn fun facts, find items from their chapters, and more throughout the room.
While learning about our history, Convention attendees were able to take a photo with the Foundations and make a promise to Alpha Sigma Tau detailing how they can support the Sorority and their Sisters.
Members could also watch our 125th Anniversary video, which encapsulates what Alpha Sigma Tau has meant to generations of women across the nation.
If you weren’t at Convention to experience our on-site museum, never fear! You can review the museum’s timeline here.
You can also explore AΣΤ history well beyond what you learned in new member education by visiting our digital museum!
Giving Our All: Permanence
In 2023, Alpha Sigma Tau began our mission to preserve our archives and make them digitally available to all Sisters, forever. In the first phase of this donor-supported project, Alpha Sigma Tau digitally preserved 400 pieces of history. While this is a wonderful start, we still have tens of thousands of artifacts to preserve.
One of our Giving Our All campaign goals is to ensure that Alpha Sigma Tau’s history and heritage are preserved in perpetuity for future generations. We are currently in the process of funding the next two phases of our next archives preservation, which includes:
Early Days of AΣΤ
We’ll preserve materials related to our Founding members and our establishment in 1899, and items currently on display at Headquarters. These pieces of history are the oldest and most significant in the archive.
Scrapbooks and Albums
Many AΣΤ memories live in scrapbooks and photo albums. Between fragile pages, dried glue, and loose binding, we’re running out of time to save these pieces before they deteriorate further.
With your support, we can preserve these important moments for future generations. If you are interested in sponsoring an archival project or a chapter composite digitization effort, you can contact foundation@alphasigmatau.org or 317-613-7573.
