Writing Our LIFE Stories

UCF Celebrates the Arts

In partnership with the University Writing Center and the Department of Writing and Rhetoric, UCF LIFE writers will share their family history writing.

This event showcases Learning Institute For Elders (LIFE) at the University of Central Florida writers and their writing. In partnership with the University Writing Center and the Department of Writing and Rhetoric, LIFE participants have developed and refined writing via writing workshop about their lived experiences, their families and family histories. Writers will share their narratives, information about their writing processes and experiences with family history writing.
