About

Begin the process of creating a memoir using a combination of research skills, writing, and integrating visuals from family possessions. The goal is not to tell an entire life story but to pick a meaningful event and write it as a non-fiction short story. The memoir can take several forms. These include:

  • A written account of the lifetime experience you want to share.
  • An audio recording of an event.
  • A podcast.
  • A short video, including an interview with accompanying home movies, still images, and any other visuals that help enhance the story.

The instructors will work with each student to pick the story, construct it, and complete it over the course of the class.

Details

Bring a laptop and camera or recording device of choice.
