Ignite your curiosity about genealogy with Jennifer Toro, founder of Curiosity Heals TM. Discovering how uncovering lost ancestor stories transforms our understanding of history and ourselves.
If you have ever asked yourself these questions, The Bridgeport History Center invites you to join Curiosity Heals, a new genealogy workshop series starting May 2026. Sessions guide participants through the healing process of researching, relating to, documenting, and honoring their ancestors.
Over four, ninety-minute weekly sessions learn how to construct a family tree along with research techniques utilizing digital archives, how to conduct an intergenerational oral history and apply their family legacy within a historical context.
Research fuels storytelling. To bring family history to life, participants will document their findings by crafting short family history narrative. In class time is provided for writing, and optional sharing.
