It's tomorrow!


Join us for the opening of the Humanities Institute's new mini-exhibition of material culture tomorrow (September 7) at 4pm. Daisy Ahlstone will present their personal collection of thylacine artifacts and discuss the debate on whether the thylacine is extinct or in hiding.

We'll have light refreshments and artmaking stations to make cryptid crafts, greeting cards, zines and more.

This event is free and open to the public.

Co-sponsored by the Humanities Institute and the Center for Folklore Studies.
