Maine

Historic New England’s school and youth programs earn national attention for the innovative ways in which they use historical resources to reinforce and enrich student learning. Programs are fun, multi-disciplinary, and suited to a variety of learning styles. At Historic New England, I created new partnerships in order to drive innovation; resulting in a series of learning experiences to connect the collections of four historic house museums with K-12 classroom curriculum, to translate into a digital platform the stories of objects telling maritime history of Maine, and to bring interactive, self guided tours to the Isles of Shoals to explore the subject of creative life of 19th century. I was responsible for creating community partnerships by developing and implementing education programs at four Maine historic house museums, and developing classroom resources for schools and youth organizations throughout the state of Maine.
