AASLH History Hour | June 2025
June 24, 2025 | 3pm EST
Join other AASLH members and friends for a free and informal conversation and community-building event on June 24 at 3 p.m. Eastern time.
This month's event will feature Dr. Michael Dove of Western University in Ontario and a discussion of walking tours at museums, historic sites, and public spaces. A former museum interpreter, Michael regularly incorporates walking tour assignments and experiences into his courses and collaborates with local community partners to create tours, including the award-winning Labatt Memorial Park walking tour for Tourism London (Ontario). We'll start with a brief presentation on walking tours and then break into small groups to brainstorm about tour content, accessibility, audiences, and more.
Join us to connect to your colleagues from across the country. Everyone is invited to participate!
AASLH History Hour takes place on the fourth Tuesday of each month from 3 – 4 p.m. Eastern Time. While free, registration is required to participate.
