Calling All Educators: You’re invited to a Virtual Educator Open House!
This
spring students, teachers, and families will embark on the start of immigration
units across New York State. For millions of immigrants, their American
journeys have begun upon their arrival to one of New York’s oldest and storied
neighborhoods, the Lower East Side. Today, neighborhood immigrant heritage
sites Ellis Island, Henry Street Settlement, Museum at
Eldridge Street, Museum of Chinese in America (MOCA), and the Tenement
Museum remain dedicated to the preservation and celebration of the immigrant
experience past and present. Together, these sites explore the aspirations,
challenges, and activism of immigrant and migrant communities across New York
and beyond.
Join us for a special Virtual Educator Open House on Wednesday,
April 21st. During this 90-minute program, you
will have the opportunity to meet fellow colleagues and hear from the museum
education staff from all these sites as they share virtual programming,
activities, and resources that can supplement your immigration unit and much
more.
