Description

The lewis h. Latimer house museum will continue to expand its school programming in response to a need for affordable educational resources in queens and nearby boroughs in new york city, while building its capacity to conduct public cultural programs for adult audiences. A newly hired educational coordinator will book school trips, lead the regular tour program, organize after-school educational programs, expand outreach, assist the executive director with developing new educational initiatives, and collect data and feedback on these programs. The new staff position will attend professional development sessions and will also help refine the curricula of existing programs and develop a new program for high school students. The addition of the new position will enable the executive director to focus on development and strengthening the board. With expanded capacity, the museum expects to build broader partnerships and reach a larger audience as IT helps to strengthen the appreciation of african american history and culture in the region.
