Personal History in the Making

Join Personal Historian Elizabeth Alex for an interactive three hour workshop at the Courtenay and District Museum on Saturday, April 21, from 1-4pm.

While the idea of writing a complete history can be overwhelming, focusing on one story at a time paints a richer, more colourful picture of who we are. Bring a notebook and come prepared to create a short story inspired by a single event in your life or that of a family member. Bring a friend and write for each other!

As a writer with a lifelong interest in history and genealogy, Elizabeth brings a refreshing point of view to enthusiasts in the Comox Valley. Before moving northward, Elizabeth owned a small business, Spinning Family Tales, in Victoria.

Please pre-register by calling the museum at 250-334-0686. The cost is $10 for museum members and $12 for non-members (plus taxes). Light refreshments will be served.
