Oral histories are crucial to understanding the history of Brazoria County. In this presentation and workshop, you will hear first-hand accounts from those who lived on these plantation sites over the past centuries. Site Educators will then teach visitors how to record quality oral histories of their own and demonstrate how to us the online platform, Storycorps. Bring someone along whose story you want to save or just take notes to bring on your next visit to Grandma's house.
This program is included with site admission.
