History comes to life at the Allen Lastinger Center for Florida History ๐Ÿ“œ

We're not just your favorite quiet study space โ€“ we also host classes, workshops, and talks. This spring, we hosted a speaker series with exciting talks about Florida history, culture, and art. Pictured here is Dr. J. Michael Francis (USF) during a lively presentation on Sir Drake's assault on St. Augustine. Keep an eye out for future learning opportunities in our space!
