(Online event) Family History: Writing and Research with Sarah Klenbort

Writing your family history is a gift to future generations. But, where to start? In this online workshop we’ll share stories, explore various structures and formats, and learn practical writing and research techniques. We’ll also do a writing exercise, so bring a pen and paper or something to write on.

This is a hybrid workshop with a focus on writing craft; it will be held in-person or in the comfort of your own home online through State Library of Queensland which will be live streamed simultaneously to an online audience via Zoom. It is a level 1 workshop, suitable for writers at levels. So come along to this supportive three-hour workshop and learn how to create an engaging family history while being inspired to create your family history or choose the online option from the convenience of your own home.

This event is suitable for people aged 15 years and older and is an online event you can participate in from home. A link will be sent through for you to access the session from home prior to the event.
