Fall 2022 - Second Thursdays (roughly)

From the grant:
"These workshops will bring digital humanities practitioners to teach skills, tools, software, and other technology that will enhance our lab members’, students’, and community partners’ ability to engage each other and their research. The CKL will offer four virtual workshops a year on platforms such as Scalar, Jekyll, StoryMaps, ArcGIS, Twine, Wax, and Palladio, which will offer our students the opportunity to learn these skills and to apply them to the DSL lab projects."
