Join the Alabama Humanities Alliance throughout 2024 as we celebrate a half-century of telling Alabama's stories!
For 50 years, storytelling has remained at the heart of who we are and what we do. When we explore the humanities — our history, literature, culture, art, and more — what we’re really doing is getting to know each other better. We’re sharing, and listening, to each other’s stories. We’re linking the past to the present. And we’re discovering the common ground, and the common humanity, that binds us all.
Check this page often throughout 2024! You’ll find opportunities to celebrate our first 50 years (join us in Huntsville on August 26!), participate in upcoming programs, and discover new storytelling series. We also hope you’ll donate to AHA’s “$500K for 50” campaign and help us tell Alabama’s stories for another 50 years — and beyond.
Come out for our Alabama Colloquium events, attend a workshop, catch our latest Smithsonian traveling exhibit, hear from one of our Road Scholar storytellers, and much more! Check out the rotator here for highlights and bookmark our Events Calendar!
