2010 NEH Conferences
 

During 2010, with support from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) the Museum presented a series of conferences for school teachers and librarians from across the nation.  Two hundred participants from 33 states in the Union came to Newark to take part in this remarkable professional development. The conferences complemented the NEH’s curriculum entitled “Picturing America” (see: http://picturingamerica.neh.gov/)
