The collection includes a selection of photos of people and places in York, Northam and other Wheatbelt towns.
The workshops are co-ordinated as part of the Rekindling Stories on Country program to help communities find, preserve and share history.
Visitors may bring photos, share stories and hear about local Noongar history over tea from 1.30pm to 3.30pm and 4.30pm to 6pm.
