Kwentuhan/Storytime: Intergenerational Community Building
Saturday, October 25, 1:00-3:30 PM | FREE (Donations welcome)
Presented by: Filipino Community of Seattle (FCS), Filipinotown Seattle, and Wing Luke Museum
Come celebrate Filipino American History Month at Wing Luke Museum on Saturday, October 25. Event doors open at 1:00 pm, and the speaking program begins at 1:30 pm. Filipiné vendors will be featured. The speaking program's focus will be on best practices for intergenerational story gathering/interviewing techniques as a way to preserve family and American history.
We will get a chance to hear from community members who will participate in a simulated interview. Community members to be interviewed include Rhandell Saya, Manang Cora Rocco, Manang Virgie Palisoc, and Manong Norman David.
Bring a friend or family member to interview, as this event will include time to practice your history/story gathering skills!
ASL interpretation will be available.
