AASLH is offering workshops to help smaller history organizations prepare for the U.S. 250th anniversary. We are now pleased to host a free training webinar, paired with workshop templates, to organizations to learn how to adapt and deliver this 250th planning workshop to stakeholders.
Training Webinar Description
The U.S. 250th anniversary is an opportunity to share history that tells everyone’s story and to strengthen the history field—but many smaller history organizations lack the resources, confidence, or awareness to make plans for this once-in-a-generation event. AASLH has developed workshop templates that field service providers can use to help practitioners both conceptually and concretely prepare for the 250th anniversary. Attend this training webinar with consultant Melissa Prycer to understand how to use new AASLH resources and plan 250th workshops that will serve small history organizations of all types, sizes, and locations. You will learn how AASLH's workshop templates can help your stakeholders use our Making History at 250 field guide, our new handbook of low-resource programming ideas, and how to effectively apply these tools to their history organizations.
The training webinar is scheduled for 3:00 to 4:00pm ET on Mon., December 9. Pre-registration is required (CLICK HERE TO REGISTER).
We look forward to seeing you there!
Best,
