Hosted in collaboration with the Center for Interactive Learning and Collaboration’s Community of Learning.

People have been telling stories of heroes going on incredible adventures, facing impossible odds, and overcoming challenges for thousands of years. Students will hear epic tales of heroes from around the world as told through artifacts in the Penn Museum collection. They will then use these tales as inspiration to create their own legendary heroes.
