Picturing America's Changing Landscapes
A five-day Picturing America conference for fifty Indiana and Kentucky high school teachers on the place of landscapes and rivers in American history and culture.
The Rivers Institute at Hanover College will host a week long workshop to help fifty high school teachers integrate Picturing America landscapes into the core subjects of fine arts, American history and government, social studies, and English/language arts, employing images, primary, and secondary documents in their classrooms to see how artists have responded to changing American landscapes—physical, social, and political.
