- **Event Name**: Tongue & Tree: Finding Your Roots in the Language That Spoke To You 
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 13 Aug, 2026 at 06:00 pm – Thu, 13 Aug, 2026 at 08:00 pm
- **Event Description**: What your family called things matters. How your people prayed, argued, joked, and grieved — the slang that only made sense on your block, the names that got changed at borders and courthouses, the phrases your grandmother repeated until they became prophecy — all of it is genealogy. This six-week writing series explores the deep connection between language and lineage, using storytelling, oral history, and personal narrative to trace where we come from and what we carry. Whether you're new to writing or have been telling stories your whole life, come ready to excavate the words that raised you and discover that your voice is the most vital document in your family's archive. By the end of six weeks, every participant will leave with a personal portfolio of short writings — a collection that is part family history, part creative work, and entirely your own.
