Preserving Family Stories

GHAMIZI helps youth and communities collect, share, and safeguard memories across generations through photos, interviews, and digital collections.

About GHAMIZI

A cluster of overlapping photo albums in bright, playful fabric covers—turquoise, mustard yellow, and coral—spread out on a clean white table. Each album is slightly open, revealing glimpses of blank photo sleeves and decorative patterned pages, with a few vintage-style photo corners and stickers scattered nearby. A small chalkboard-style label reading “Memories” lies at the center. Natural morning light pours in from the right, creating soft highlights on the glossy plastic sleeves and subtle shadows between the books. Photographic realism, shot from a slightly elevated angle, with sharp focus across the scene to convey an organized, cheerful workspace ready for youth to fill with family stories.
A modern corkboard mounted on a pale teal wall, covered with a playful mosaic of blank Polaroid-style frames, colored sticky notes, and string-tied paper tags. Small wooden clothespins clip the frames to a zigzag of white string, hinting at future stories to be added. At the bottom edge, a few gel pens and a roll of patterned tape rest on a narrow white shelf. Warm, diffused indoor lighting softly illuminates the cork texture and note edges, casting tiny, friendly shadows. Captured straight-on in photographic realism with crisp focus, the composition uses the rule of thirds, creating an energetic, optimistic mood that invites youth and families to imagine their memories pinned here.
An open, colorful scrapbook lying on a light birch table, its pages thoughtfully arranged with blank pastel frames, decorative borders, and hand-drawn doodle-style arrows guiding where stories will go. Beside it, a small stack of illustrated prompt cards reads phrases like “Favorite celebration” and “A story from home,” though the card text itself is intentionally unreadable. A playful mix of markers, stickers, and paper shapes fans out around the book. Gentle golden-hour light from a nearby window bathes the scene in a warm glow, emphasizing the textures of paper and ink. Photographic realism, shot from a three-quarter overhead angle, evokes a cozy, creative space where youth can preserve and share family memories.
A sleek laptop with a bright, playful interface displaying a stylized digital memory timeline made of colorful dots and floating blank photo frames, all intentionally free of recognizable images or text. The laptop sits on a tidy white desk beside a small stack of patterned notebooks and a ceramic cup filled with vibrant pens. In the background, a softly blurred bookshelf holds labeled boxes and albums, suggesting organized archives. Soft, cool daylight from a nearby window reflects subtly on the laptop screen, while gentle shadows add depth. Photographic realism, captured at an eye-level angle with shallow depth of field, creates a modern, upbeat atmosphere emphasizing digital storytelling and preserving family memories online.

Upcoming Family Events

A sturdy, portable audio recorder with large, clearly marked buttons and a fuzzy windscreen, resting on a colorful woven table runner patterned with playful geometric shapes. Next to it lies an open notebook with wide, blank lines and a friendly, rounded font title that is intentionally unreadable, along with a highlighter and sticky tabs. Warm pendant lighting from above creates soft reflections on the recorder’s metallic surface and rich shadows in the fabric’s texture. Photographic realism, shot from a close-up, slightly tilted angle, focuses sharply on the recorder while the background fades gently, suggesting an inviting, creative setup for capturing and preserving spoken family stories for the community.

Family Heritage Fair

Join us on June 15, 2026 to celebrate our town’s memories with stories, photos, and hands-on history activities for all ages.

A small, vibrant community memory corner arranged on a low wooden bench: a clear glass jar labeled with an unreadable, hand-drawn tag, half-filled with folded, colorful paper slips; a stack of mini notebooks with playful covers; and a simple wooden crate holding empty, kraft-colored envelopes. The bench sits against a soft yellow wall adorned with a few blank, hanging frames. Diffused afternoon light from an unseen window brightens the scene, creating gentle, welcoming shadows. Photographic realism, captured at a slightly elevated angle with moderate depth of field, conveys an approachable, communal space where youth and neighbors can contribute and share their family memories together.

Autumn Family Reunion

The event runs Sunday, July 12, 2026, featuring photo displays from grandparents, a kids corner, and a short film screening.

A whimsical “memory map” laid out on a large sheet of kraft paper spread across a tabletop, with a playful hand-drawn path weaving between illustrated icons of a house, a tree, a book, and a star, all intentionally simplified and text-free. Colorful string links some of the icons to blank tags and empty photo frames taped lightly to the paper. A small tin of pushpins, scissors, and rolls of patterned tape clusters in one corner. Soft overcast daylight from above creates even, gentle illumination with minimal shadows. Photographic realism, shot from a bird’s-eye view, gives the scene a creative, exploratory mood, perfect for guiding youth through mapping their family memories.
