Thursday, January 22nd | 2:00pm – 4:00pm | $50Discovering your family’s history and how to share it for generations to come.
Every family has a story worth telling – rich with pioneers, caretakers, dreamers, and the occasional rascal or hero. This program will help you turn those old photographs, family anecdotes, and genealogical charts into a compelling narrative that future generations will actually want to read.
Learn how to shape your research into an engaging, readable story that reveals how your family history has shaped who you are – socially, financially, educationally, psychologically, spiritually, and even politically. Together we’ll explore the beliefs, traditions, and defining moments that give every family its unique character.
Learn to:
*Turn memories into stories – shape photos, letters, and family lore into compelling narratives people will actually want to read.
*Explore the power of family secrets – uncover what was whispered, hidden, or misunderstood, and see how those stories shaped who you are.
*Celebrate saints and learn from “sinners” – honor the characters in every family, from the steadfast to the scandalous.
*Use modern tools creatively – from your smartphone to AI-powered transcription, editing, and design software.
*Organize and digitize family materials – photos, journals, and documents that might otherwise be lost.
*Interview relatives effectively – capture authentic voices, stories, and insights before they fade.
*Edit and design your book – use simple layout tools to create professional,
print-ready pages.
*Publish and share your work – explore affordable on-demand printing options.
**Free 18-page family history guide included. Plus, receive a 25% off shoebox scans coupon for attending so you can turn those old photos, slides and documents into ready-to-use digital files!**
