Revolutionary Ideals

In the summer of 2022, NHD kicked off its programming to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence with a live teacher institute in Providence, Rhode Island. Partnering with the Rhode Island Historical Society, NHD developed this week-long institute, Revolutionary Ideals, engaging 30 teachers. The program focused on Revolutionary ideals, exploring the ideals of the time and considering how they were (or were not) practiced or applied fully.
