-THE TTA TEAM-
WHO WORKS
AT THE ARCHIVE?
We're Daniel & Margot - more information on us below!
The Archive, however, is a product of so many talented, generous, hard-working people.
From the artists who worked with me, Daniel, back in the 80s and 90s, to everyone who has helped behind-the-scenes to get the Archive to where it is right now to be shared with the world.
You know who you are and I am so grateful for your help bringing this project alive to share - thank you.
Find out more about us below and scroll to read in detail about the plans for profit sharing, supporting Tango organizations on the ground in Buenos Aires, and reinvestment as and when the Archive becomes profitable.
