“Our mission is to Connect our African American Community to their Ancestors through the Tacoma Family History Center.” 

Celebrate Black History Month by learning how to piece together the stories of your

ancestors, and bring them to life.  Tacoma Family History Center is hosting a FREE

genealogy workshop designed specifically for individuals with African American ancestry. This

FREE workshop will be held February 25, 2023, from 9AM to 2PM at the Tacoma Family

History Center, 1102 S Pearl St. in Tacoma Washington. A free lunch will be served to

attendees. 

 Connection with ancestors can come from the stories our families and friends tell.

Come learn how to save special memories.
Genealogy helps build past and present relationships.
