Peel Workshops, September-October 2025

Peel Workshop participants have found it deeply rewarding to work with primary materials, to learn about the history of books and ideas in various disciplines, to hold special rare items in their hands, and to discover what kinds of knowledge can be gleaned from the material objects themselves. 

We are pleased to offer smaller in-person and larger online workshops to members of the U of A community. 

Advance online registration is required, and opens at 8am on September 2nd.
