Program Description

Event Details

Camcorder tapes, VHS, VHS-C, 8 mm film - the opportunities to make home movies in the 20th century seem endless. Now, it ends up being hard to find the equipment to view your forgotten treasures and harder still to digitize it for free. Join Genealogy & History Manager Stephanie Bennett to learn about the ins and outs of family movie digitization and how the Heritage Lab located on the 8th floor of the J. Erik Jonsson Central Library can help you make your precious family memories easier to share with loved ones.

After the program, in person attendees will get a tour of the Creative Spaces: Heritage Lab, a place to digitize irreplaceable family memories and create new ways to celebrate them. It is generously supported by the Dallas Genealogical Society, the Friends of the Dallas Public Library and the General Levi Casey Chapter, NSDAR.

This program is available both in-person at the J. Erik Jonsson Central Library, 8th floor AND online via Zoom. Register below for either option!
