Topic: What’s In Your Family Time Capsule?
Speaker: Dr. Traci Austin
​
This is a hands‑on program about the stories in everyday family objects. We’ll talk about how items like recipe cards, tools, letters, and photos can help preserve your family’s memories for future generations. Family Time Capsule Cards for recording an item’s stories and information will be handed out.
​
What to bring if you’d like to share:
-
A small object that holds a family memory (or just come with one in mind).
