The MHAHP and Historic Hudson Valley \u2013 which runs several historic sites in Westchester County \u2013 will lead a workshop for teachers at the upcoming annual conference of the National Council for History Education. Exploring Runaway Art: New Strategies for Teaching About Enslavement<\/em><\/strong>, addresses the need for more teaching and learning about enslavement in American history. Workshop participants will explore 18th<\/sup>-century runaway slave advertisements, primary-source documents which indicate the size and scope of enslavement in the North \u2013 and also serve as documentation of acts of resistance taken by individuals in response to enslavement. Through Document analysis, critical thinking, and creative response, participants will gain confidence in engaging with this difficult but critical content.<\/p>\n The Runaway Art<\/em>curriculum was developed by HHV and the Center for Arts Education and has been used in dozens of New York City schools, reaching over 10,000 students. Margaret Hughes, HHV\u2019s Associate Director of Education, and Peter Bunten of MHAHP will lead the workshop. The Annual Conference of NCHE takes place March 14-16 in Washington, DC.
