Featured Courses

  • Hot Chocolate & History: "The Kensington Runestone: Is It Real or Is It a Hoax?"

    The controversy is over 100 years old: Did an immigrant Swedish farmer find a buried rock in 1898 that contained an ancient runic message carved by Viking explorers in 1362? Or is the whole thing a hoax, perpetrated by the farmer or someone else? The instructor will present both sides of the controversy and will invite you to join in the discussion. Attend in person or online! If attending in person at the Runestone Museum, you will be welcomed with hot chocolate! If you choose online, you will receive an email from the instructor with the Zoom invitation to access the class.
