Intergenerational narrative theory suggests that sharing family stories with our children across generations and family impacts our character and well-being as adults. Children who know about roots develop a strong identity, making them more resilient with a higher sense of self-esteem and emotional stability. Preserving our family history (photographs, stories, journeys, and ancestry) in a beautifully crafted coffee table book is a tangible piece of heirloom that can be shared and passed on to future generations

The workshop I’m conducting is a step-by-step guide on how to start your Family Heritage coffee table book. This is a hands-on session (3 hours with a 30” break) where participants can bring their photos and any memorabilia (ticket stubs, invites, newspaper clippings). At the end of the workshop, participants would have the tools, resources, and inspiration to print their own books.
