Landmarks of American History and Culture Workshops are offered
by the National Endowment for the Humanities to provide K-12
educators with the opportunity to engage in intensive study and
discussion of important topics and issues in American history
and culture, while providing them with direct experiences in the
interpretation of significant historical sites and the use of
archival and other primary evidence. Prior to completing an
application to a specific workshop, please review the "Dear
Colleague Letter" from the project director (available on the
project’s web site, or as an e-mail attachment) and consider
carefully what is expected in terms of residence and attendance,
reading and writing requirements, and participation in the work
of the project. NEH Landmarks Workshops will allow 40 teachers
at a time to collaborate with core faculty and visiting
scholars. The Workshops are designed to present the best
available scholarship on a specific landmark or related cluster
of landmarks. Participants benefit
