About this event
“Navigating Hidden Archives” invites participants to look beyond traditional records and discover the rich, often overlooked sources that bring family histories to life. This workshop explores how everyday materials—such as church programs, school records, personal photographs, scrapbooks, letters, and family heirlooms—can serve as powerful historical documents. Participants will learn how to interpret these materials, uncover hidden narratives, and piece together stories that may not appear in official archives.
