If you have lived in Grand Rapids city limits, then it is quite possible that you have resided in a place that has a rich history of individual lives who have passed through your doorways.
But what about the home? What is the history that eludes your wandering eyes as you scan the room asking what is the history of this particular space you call home?
Lucky for you, on Saturday there is a chance to don your metaphorical Sherlock Holmes cape, hat and pipe as you join others on a search for your home’s hidden history at a special workshop designed to answer many of your questions.
In partnership with the Grand Rapids Main Library, our local
Heritage Hill Association invites the public to join them on April 8th to learn how to conduct historical research on your home and its history.
Formatted for the beginner, the event kicks off with an informative one hour presentation followed by a Q & A session. Immediately after you are invited to begin your research with assistance provided by the library.
If you have any questions, please contact Heritage Hill Association’s Tansy Harris at 616-459-8950 or at
[email protected] with any advance questions.
