Few things are more precious than hearing a loved one share the stories that matter most to them.
In this beginner-friendly workshop, experienced podcaster Nina Fromhold guides participants through the art of capturing life stories. Attendees will learn how to ask engaging interview questions, navigate the basics of audio recording and preserve personal histories with care.
Through a supportive process, clear structure and an interactive format with interview tools, you will gain the confidence to start recording and saving your family's history and those special life moments.
Bring pen and paper or a fully charged device to participate in the writing exercises.
