National Endowment for the Humanities "Picturing America" project.
The Newark Museum hosted professional development workshops for 200 school teachers from across the United States. The workshops focused on ways to use American art to connect with the study of American history and culture. Featured was the curriculum set developed by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) called "Picturing America". The Newark Museum enhanced the NEH's set with examples of American art from its own collection. The workshops also featured prominent American scholars and specialists ("Visual Thinking Strategies" and new media).
