October is Family History Month, and the Santa Barbara County Genealogical Society invites community members to a free Open House and Student Art Show, 1-4 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 3 at the Sahyun Library, 316 Castillo St., Santa Barbara.

Society volunteers will provide tours of the library, assist visitors with a map and society cousins activity, a craft-your-family-tree station, printing your family tree from FamilySearch.org, and genealogy research help.

The society will display a Family Matters Student Art exhibit featuring artwork created by local students highlighting family members they were unable to see during the pandemic. The society will also display the Santa Barbara African American Live, Culture, and Contributions exhibit, which celebrates the heritage of local African Americans and their contributions to the Santa Barbara community.

Most activities will take place outside; masks will be required inside the library. For more information, visit www.sbgen.org.
