Genealogy Fair

Kitchener Public Library is organizing its eighth annual Genealogy Fair on Saturday, November 4, 2023. The event runs from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Central Library. It is open to the public, with no admission charge. No registration is required to attend the Fair or any of the workshops.

This year, we are pleased to announce that Aaron T. Francis, curator of the digital archive, Vintage Black Canada, will be our keynote speaker! Francis will talk about his work documenting his Jamaican family heritage.

We are planning a variety of activities, including free workshops with a vendor marketplace. Our previous Genealogy Fairs were successful beyond expectations! We hosted 8-10 lectures at each event and saw over 300 people throughout the day at each fair. Watch this space for updates on who will be joining us on Saturday November 4 at the Genealogy Fair!
