Are you close to the East Coast and looking for a great local digital humanities training opportunity? Dream Lab <https://web.sas.upenn.edu/dream-lab/> is a week-long digital humanities training opportunity hosted by the University of Pennsylvania (*Philadelphia, June 5-8*) and designed to help humanists become more confident and thoughtful users, creators, and critics of digital technology. There are several courses to choose from <https://web.sas.upenn.edu/dream-lab/courses-2023/>, each of which combines technology instruction with practical application. Dream Lab is open to everyone but has been designed especially to serve graduate students and early-stage scholars aspiring to be teaching faculty, research librarians, museum professionals, and archivists. Dream Lab is open to all, and is especially accessible to those within the New England and Mid-Atlantic regions. My colleague Lauren Cooper (Center for Black Digital Research, PSU) and I will again be teaching our course, Nuts and Bolts of DH Project Development <https://web.sas.upenn.edu/dream-lab/nuts-and-bolts-of-dh-project-development-2023/>. This course is specifically geared towards librarians and consultants who support DH projects. Other courses at Dream Lab <https://web.sas.upenn.edu/dream-lab/courses-2023/> include text analysis, digital surrogates, humanities mapping, and other topics of interest to library workers. Please let me know if you have any questions about Dream Lab or our course. Early bird (and cheapest registration) is open until *May 19, 2023*.
