Mapping Your Story: Genealogy 101
Saturday, January 31
11 am - 1 pm
Hall of Generations
When you walk through our doors, you are invited to share your own, or your family’s, American Dream story. You can do this any day we’re open at our Tree of Generations by adding your photo or writing your story on a paper leaf to be added to our tree.
This special genealogy activity will be another way to reflect on your family’s story and introduce the basics of primary source research and interpretation. Learn how to research your family history, get expert tips on tracing roots, digitizing archives, and preserving oral histories. Create a starter family tree with printed templates and take home a blueprint for building your family’s generational story.
This is a drop-in activity included with your January 31 general admission ticket.
