This $180,256 federal Project Grant award from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Promotion of the Humanities Professional Development program (CFDA 45.163) will support two week-long workshops for 70 grades 5-12 educators, librarians, curriculum consultants, museum educators, and administrators. The workshops, led by Rutgers University, the Ramapough Culture and Land Foundation, and Liberty State Park, will explore the histories, cultures, and science of the coastal and land areas surrounding Liberty State Park. The workshops will leverage the park itself as a classroom, with visits to coastal landmarks, historic waterfront areas, and significant regional sites to support the development of lesson plans on these themes. This project aims to enrich humanities education and curriculum development related to the foundations of the nation, with a focus on the past, present, and future of Liberty State Park and the surrounding Hudson Bay area.
