Your grandma didn't survive 40 years of unsolicited parenting advice from her mother-in-law just for her story to die with her!
We're partnering with the Genealogical Society of Linn County Iowa to bring you a Family Storytelling Workshop - and yes, it's exactly what your family reunion has been missing for 30 years.
📅 Saturday, June 27 at 1:00pm
📍 The Workroom at Cedar Rapids Area Genealogy Library
813 1st Ave SE, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, lower level of Masonic Library
Here's the thing: most of us have a relative who holds the whole family history in their head. A grandparent. An aunt. That one cousin who inexplicably knows everything. This workshop shows you how to capture those stories before they're gone - with prompts, techniques, and tools that actually work.
You'll walk away knowing how to:
✅ Get the reluctant talker in your family to actually open up
✅ Record and preserve stories in a way your grandkids will thank you for
✅ Connect generations who've been scrolling past each other for years
This isn't a dusty genealogy lecture. It's a hands-on, laugh-out-loud, maybe-cry-a-little afternoon that your future family will be grateful you showed up for.
Spots are limited. Your great-great-grandchildren are counting on you.
