The Exciting World and Dynamic Career of Oral History: A Workshop
Anyone with a passion for storytelling will love this workshop! Whether you are a family member wanting to document family history, an educator striving to bring history to life for your students, a professional working on a community project, or if you wish to begin your own business as an oral historian, you will learn all you need to get started. Dignity therapy---where you gather the oral history of someone with a terminal disease---will be covered. Hospice caregivers will receive a substantial discount.
Kelly Sturgeon, the workshop's primary educator, has worked as a professional oral historian for twenty years. She has worked in hospice settings, and she was the Oral History Curator for the Vietnam Veterans of California.
