Let’s talk about love! From love letters to break up letters, the course of true love never did run smooth. Join us for the 2024-2025 season of First Fridays as we share matters of the heart from collections across Archives and Special Collections. The November program features presentations from the Social Welfare History Archives and the Children’s Literature Research Collections.Light lunch at 11:30 a.m. Presentations begin at noon in person and online. A tour of the archival caverns will take place after the event concludes. ASL interpreters will be present for all First Fridays events.
Save the date! Event registration will open on Sept. 3.
