NEH Landmarks of American History Workshops

The Division of Education Programs of the National Endowment for the
Humanities seeks applications for Landmarks of American History:
Workshops for School Teachers and the new Landmarks of American History:
Workshops for Community College Faculty. These grant opportunities are
part of the "We the People" initiative, which is designed to enhance the
teaching, study, and understanding of American history and culture.
Landmarks of American History workshops bring groups of K-12 teachers or
community college faculty together for intensive, one-week,
residence-based workshops at or near significant American historical
sites. Eligible applicants include museums, libraries, cultural and
learned societies, state humanities councils, colleges and universities,
schools and school districts. Collaborative programs are encouraged.

For details about the program, some sample projects, and application
guidelines, go to http://www.neh.gov/grants/guidelines/landmarks.html
(Workshops for School Teachers) or
http://www.neh.gov/grants/guidelines/landmarkscc.html (Workshops for
Community College Faculty). Current Landmarks of American History:
Workshops for School Teachers are described at
http://www.neh.gov/projects/landmarks.html.
Note that the deadline is fast approaching: August 6th!

As always, Division of Education program officers are available to help
out, whether it's to discuss your ideas or to read a draft proposal.
