http://www.lisp.org has links to at least a dozen of them.
also, http://ww.telent.net/cliki/ has some other resources.

This is interesting, but it doesn't teach any modern concepts; reducing
Lisp to a "functional" symbol and list manipulation language.  At least
they admit that what they are teaching is a severely constrained
dialect.  A person who is interested in the practical use of the
language would be better off with a tutorial such as Successful Lisp [1]
or one found on CLiki [2] or ALU's web site [3].
