Enjoy an entire day of speakers, tours and research, or drop-in as you can. Or join us virtually online, but we'd much rather see you in person!
Featuring an engaging lineup of expert webinar teaching, topics include: Writing Narratives, Court Records, Scandinavian Research, Beginning Genealogy Right, Research Road Trips, New Orleans Area Research, Using AI, Collateral Research and MORE!
Bring your research and explore our genealogy materials upstairs. Local FamilySearch volunteers will be on hand all day for one-on-one research help in the Heritage Expo and upstairs. Look for the Research Help Sign-in and the FamilySearch logo.
Historical and heritage societies, genealogy and library groups, and museums will have displays and information tables at our Heritage Expo in the Community Engagement Area, as well as heritage craft exhibit tables and artifact displays. Visit over 15 table exhibits from genealogy and history friends here to tell you about their organizations. Learn a bit, get a snack and make new connections! Be sure to visit each table and get a signature to be in the special end of day drawing!
Light snacks provided and vending machines are available all day. Feel free to bring your own lunch or visit the campus cafe (its a Starbucks!).
