Project Grant BH30152824

The Wing Luke Memorial Foundation, doing business as the Wing Luke Asian Museum, received a $190,000 project grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Promotion of the Humanities Professional Development program (CFDA 45.163). The grant will support two, one-week workshops in July 2025 titled "In Our Own Voices: Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders in the Pacific Northwest". Led by the museum's education staff in partnership with scholars and veteran K-12 educators, the workshops will provide professional development for teachers focused on curriculum and instructional strategies related to Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander art, history, and culture in the Pacific Northwest region. The project builds on the museum's successful workshop series from 2014 to 2023 and will deliver humanities-based educational resources and training to enhance K-12 teaching and learning.
