*The Worlds Between: An Exploration of Magic, Folklore, and the Occult* is currently on display on the sixth floor of Van Pelt-Dietrich Library in the Snyder-Granader Alcove. This exhibition showcases a range of items from across the Kislak Center collections, including recent acquisitions like the Charles Rainsford Collection of Alchemical and Occult Manuscripts as well as herbal and alchemical treasures. *The Worlds Between* explores connections between the history of science and the occult, traditional folk magic, and mystical knowledge traditions. Join us next Friday, October 27th at 6:30pm for the show’s reception, featuring a talk by scholar and folklorist Cory Thomas Hutcheson.
