The American Association for State and Local History “Not Your Ordinary Workshop Series” Begins in February 2001

This new workshop series is the result of a year-long planning process involving teams of renowned professionals from the field who collectively make this series the best in the country.  These workshops include a carefully designed two-and-a-half day schedule of interactive sessions, a team of experienced faculty, and a notebook of curriculum materials that will assist your learning for many months following the workshop or institute.  Our host sites offer both warm hospitality and stimulating learning environments that are often used as case studies or learning laboratories.

So check the listings below and find the topic and location best for you. To register or receive a workshop brochure by mail, contact Tara White at AASLH by email: [log in to unmask] or call (615) 320-3203.  The workshop information, agendas, and registration information also appear on our website at www.aaslh.org. Register early as space is limited to provide a quality learning experience!
