Virtual Sundays: Something Old, Something New
Sunday, February 16
1:00 pm to 2:30 pm
Speakers: Heather Nickerson and Ellen Goodwin
We all collect, accumulate, and inherit a lot of ‘stuff’ in our daily lives. Artifcts helps you keep track of what it is, why it matters, and what to do with it next, so you can declutter and organize the ‘stuff’ and the memories.
Artifcts has evolved to become more than just a place to document the who, what, when, where, and why behind the objects in our lives. We’ve created and enabled a variety of features that allow our community members to capture small (and big) moments in time, connect with loved ones, and preserve the meaning behind the objects that speak to who we are and where we’ve been.
After registering, you will be able to join the meeting immediately from the registration window. If you register in advance, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.
We invite all SGS community members to (1) share their research results, successes, or strategies with others or (2) practice a presentation in front of a friendly audience. Contact Programs@seagensoc.org to save a date.
