NGS and Vivid-Pix are Celebrating Family History Month
The National Genealogical Society (NGS) and Vivid-Pix are embarking on a nationwide tour for Family History Month in October. They are inviting family storytellers and historians of all levels to participate in in-person and online events. These events aim to celebrate family heritage and enable individuals to share their life stories and ancestral memories through the NGS/Vivid-Pix Family Matters Program. The tour begins in South Carolina and includes stops in Texas, Arizona, Utah, Missouri, Wisconsin, Indiana, and Kentucky.
The Family Matters Program, announced during the NGS National Conference in June, is targeted at Societies, Libraries, Archives, Museums (SLAMs) to help communities explore their family history. It provides access to the Vivid-Pix Memory Station™ scanner hardware and software, educational courses in genealogy and photography, and an Outreach Toolkit to attract new audiences. The Memory Station software allows users to scan, restore, and record voice memories, making archiving photos, documents, and memorabilia easy. This product will be available in October.
