ASHBROOK MASTERCLASSES

Ashbrook’s free online MasterClasses are based on the two pillars of our approach to education: original documents and thoughtful conversation. Each course explores important ideas, individuals, and moments in time through the words of those who lived and shaped our history. 

STUDY AT YOUR OWN PACE

Ashbrook MasterClasses consist of documents, videos, readings and quizzes that can be taken at your pace and over time. Each course includes a free, downloadable PDF reader, and you’ll receive a certificate for each course you complete.

Once you register for one, you will have access to all current and future classes, too.
