Peel Workshops, Winter 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 offer smaller in-person and larger online workshops to members of the U of A community. Advance registration is required. Further information and registration here.
Topics include:
Cryptic Mysteries and Literary Hoaxes
Peering into the Bookmaking World of Susan Allix
