NEH Landmarks of American History Workshops

The Division of Education Programs of the National Endowment for the
Humanities is pleased  to announce that NEH has a new funding opportunity.
We have recently posted on the NEH website a Request for Proposals (RFP) for
Landmarks of American History: Workshops for Teachers, housed in the
Division of Education Programs. This is part of the "We the People"
initiative which we just launched to encourage teaching, studying, and
understanding of American history and culture. In the Landmarks of American
History workshops, we envision a series of intensive, one-week,
residence-based workshops for groups of 50 or more school teachers that
would take place 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 .

Note that the deadline is fast approaching: August 15th!

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. Here are
