Lively "Hands-On" Workshops
Half the fun should be in the journey and The Lasting Legacy Series is designed to transform an overwhelming and isolating task into a joyful experience of shared memories and quick progress.

Workshop participants are able to explore and share family history in a warm and structured setting at affordable group rates.  Our unique approach is systematic, simple and fun, and gives participants a quick and exhilarating "win" with their very first step.

Even the sobering prospect of organizing one's important documents and contemplating one's final wishes takes on a fresh and manageable feel when handled in small bites in a group setting.

Over the course of just a matter of weeks, each participant will create a body of work that will be appreciated and treasured for generations to come.
