Do you have boxes of old photographs, letters, papers, and family keepsakes that you’ve always meant to organize but never knew where to begin? This workshop will help you take the first steps toward creating an organized, manageable family archive so that important memories and historical materials are preserved instead of forgotten. You’ll learn practical strategies for sorting and organizing photographs, documents, letters, and treasured heirlooms while identifying which materials are most important to preserve. The class will introduce simple systems for managing family records, creating inventories of your materials, and keeping your archive organized in a way that works for you. You’ll also explore best practices for protecting fragile items, selecting appropriate storage materials, and preparing collections for future digitization or sharing with family members. By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with a clear plan for organizing your family archive and preserving meaningful pieces of your family history for future generations. Ideal for family historians, retirees, and anyone who wants to protect and organize their family’s memories and historical records.
