 Michelle Edmonds     2 hrs ago

In celebration of Family History Month during October, the Butler Center for Arkansas Studies is offering a kid-friendly basic genealogy course.

Participants will learn how to use online databases, city directories and how to archive family documents.

Led by local history specialist and Butler Center staffer Rhonda Stewart, the sessions will be a fun and creative way to learn about the past.

The course will be today at the Arkansas Studies Institute Research Room (401 President Clinton Ave) from 11:30 a.m. until 1:30 p.m.
It's open for kids ages 10 and up but a parent must be present. To reserve a seat, call 501.320.5754.
