SUMMARY:Professional Development Workshop

This workshop includes a guided tour of the Poe Museum\, three focused talks by Poe specialists\, educator resources & more! Lunch and one complimentary drink at our UnHappy Hour social are provided. A detailed schedule of the event can be viewed below.  \n\n\n\nA portion of this event will be hosted outside in the Poe Museum’s Enchanted Garden.
