Upcoming Genealogy Garage Workshop 

 

 Saturday, October 17, 2015

Los Angeles Public Library (LAPL), Richard Riordan Central Library
630 W. 5th St., Los Angeles, CA 90071
History & Genealogy Dept., Lower Level 4
 
Write Your Own Story
 
Before you write about your ancestors, preserve your own personal history for the future as a template for your own obituary or eulogy! Without an insight into your own life and without a list of your accomplishments for which you wish to be remembered, who you were may be reduced to what is written by a stranger, a cousin you barely knew or a grandchild who only knew you as a senior citizen.

Workshop leader Rita Vega-Acevedo, current VP Programs & Education and past President of GSHA-SC has an absolute passion for “writing your own story.”

Hope to see you!

RSVP  the Central Library at 213-228-7000, ask for the History and Genealogy Department and tell them you are making a reservation for the Genealogy Garage workshop on [give the specific date]. Give them your name and an e-mail address or phone number so you can be notified if the workshop is unexpectedly cancelled.

Park UNDER the library, entering at 524 Flower Street just off 5th Street. You will need a LAPL card to receive the $1.00 Saturday parking rate. Apply for the card at your local LAPL or at the Circulation Desk when you arrive. Just bring identification. Show your library card to get your parking ticket validated at the Information Desk before returning to your car.

Please travel light. This is a public building—it is NOT recommended that you leave computers, purses or other personal items unattended while researching.
