SUMMARY:Teaching the American Revolution
DESCRIPTION:How did Connecticut contribute to the American Revolution? As the 250th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence approaches\, this teacher workshop will provide teachers with content and tools to use their classrooms as we explore Connecticut’s role in the American Revolution. This workshop will share teaching activities that highlight Connecticut’s role as the provisions state\, the experiences of Connecticut officers and regular soldiers who fought in the Continental Army\, the battles against Connecticut shore towns and conflict between Connecticans who remained loyal to Britain and those seeking independence. Workshop participants will receive ‘ready-to-use’ inquiry-based teaching activities; from close reading to student research and local primary sources\, on Connecticut’s role during the American Revolution. Participants will also have the opportunity to see documents and artifacts from the Connecticut Museum of Culture and History’s vast collection. \nQuestions? Contact Natalie Belanger\, Public Programs Manager\, at nbelanger@connecticutmuseum.org. \n$5 per person. Light refreshments will be served. \nREGISTER

SUMMARY:Common Ground: Growers of Color Talkback
DESCRIPTION:Where do we find common ground? Cultural heritage art forms create and reflect meaning\, identity\, and community\, but we can become overly focused on cultural differences\, or else assume that there is a universal artistic language. But what if we can dig into—and challenge—both perspectives? In Common Ground\, we bring together traditional artists and cultural practitioners who are rooted in different cultural traditions to demonstrate their work\, share with one another\, and discuss their similarities and differences. \nIn this conversation\, we will hold a discussion with the featured artists from the Growers of Color video series! Growers of Color addresses the experiences of people at the intersections of agriculture\, culture\, and community. Through the lens of folklife\, we can see how growing food is rooted in local history and contemporary contexts\, and how these growers evolve and adapt to meet their communities’ needs and build community with one another. \nThis conversation will feature: \n\n Azeem Kareem and Sarah Rose Kareem of Samad Gardens Initiative\nKhmer farmer Vicheth Im\nRobert Peck of Hemp Milk and Honey\nTravis Stewart of Farm with Me LLC\n\nThe panel will be moderated by Mike Keo\, a Senior Communication Officer at the Hartford Foundation for Public Giving. Previously\, he worked at the Connecticut Museum of Culture and History\, served as Storyteller for UConn’s Boys and Men of Color Summit\, and was Activist-in-Residence at UConn AAASI.
