The City of Raleigh and the South Park – East Raleigh Neighborhood Association (SPERNA), are offering free workshops to help the community find their African American roots.

The two workshops will be a series of classes held on Tuesdays and Saturdays in September by instructors who will teach residents basic genealogy skills while exploring online resources such as Ancestry and Freedmen's Bureau records.

No experience is necessary. Ten residents who complete the four sessions will be awarded a donated refurbished chrome book. Workshop registration is limited and registration is required. For more information contact the City of Raleigh Museum at 919-996-2220.
