The NEH-funded Landmarks of American History and Culture program gives K-12 educators the opportunity to engage with projects that situate the study of topics and themes in K-12 humanities within sites, areas, or regions of historic and cultural significance. A landmark may be a recognized historical monument, marker, or memorial or group of monuments or markers. Physical, natural, and cultural landscapes, as well as a historical district or a collection of thematically related structures and sites within a local region could also qualify. Each Landmarks program is offered twice in one summer and accommodates 36 educators in each one-week session. Prior to completing an application to a specific workshop, please review the project website and consider carefully what is expected in terms of residence and attendance, reading and writing requirements, and general participation in the work of the project.
