ACADEMY OF MAGICAL HISTORY

Mark and Tracey from the Folklore Library and Archive have teamed up with Professor Marion Gibson and Dr Tabitha Stanmore to create the Academy of Magical History, where you can learn about aspects of our magical past via online and in-person courses.
​
To launch this new endeavour, the Academy has organised a two-day online conference with eight world-class speakers. A proportion of the funds raised by this event will support the Folklore Library’s charitable work.
