Write This Down: Historical Journaling
June 28 @ 9:30 am - 11:30 pm

What if your grocery lists, doodles, love notes, and late-night rants became the stuff of legend? While you’re busy living an “ordinary” life, future historians might be dying to read all about it.
Join the Cortland County Historical Society and Laurie Seamans for a hands-on workshop that will turn your everyday into a future artifact. Learn how to journal in ways that are deeply personal, wildly creative, and—dare we say—historically intriguing. We’ll dive into themes and writing prompts, then get crafty with collage, altered books, and other techniques to turn your journal into a true relic-in-the-making.
You’ve wandered the Cortland Curiosities trail and uncovered the stories of long-lost souls. Now it’s your turn to leave a trail of breadcrumbs for the curious minds of tomorrow.
Bring your scraps, secrets, and snapshots—we’ll provide the rest.
