Talk Description:
We preserve landmarks, documents, and artifacts, but often lose the lives behind them.

With a background in archaeology and historic preservation, Killian Wolf approaches personal history as something just as fragile and valuable as any physical artifact. In this talk, she explores how everyday lives shape the historical record, why so many personal stories disappear within a generation or two, and how oral histories can be responsibly documented and preserved.

Drawing connections between community history and individual experience, she invites attendees to consider their own role in preserving the narratives that define families, communities, and places like St. Augustine. Blending historical perspective with practical guidance, this talk offers a meaningful starting point for those who want to ensure their experiences and histories are not lost.
