This month we're very pleased to have the September feature over on the #ArchivesHub monthly blog.

Our blog explores the background of Classical Greek Dance, a fascinating early 20th Century dance movement, using items from two of our dance collections.

A group of students and staff in a research room stand and raise their hands in the air (like they just don't care, but the vibe in the room was full of laughter).

A group of five students sit around a table looking at a mixture of archive materials.

Dancing in the research room! 💃
We welcomed a group from ‪‬Grinnell College, Iowa to our Research Room to investigate the links between dance, and language using our #rudolflaban archive, and in particular, the Czech dancer Milca Mayerova.
