We all love discovering a fantastic tale of our family’s past—whether it be the distant relative who journeyed on the Mayflower, or the grandmother riveted airplanes at a World War II factory. But how do we share these stories in engaging ways? This workshop provides the tools to enrich genealogical research with story and memory so that readers will feel what it was like to be in that moment.
Kim Stanley is a professor of English and chair of the Department of Modern Languages at McPherson College.
“A Creative Guide to Writing Your Family’s Stories” is part of Humanities Kansas's Speakers Bureau, featuring humanities-based presentations designed to share stories that inspire, spark conversations that inform, and generate insights that strengthen civic engagement.
This program is free and open to the public!. For more information, call (785) 242-1232 or e-mail [email protected].
