Vermont Humanities sponsors innovative programs for students to further engage young people in their own learning. Whether it’s through intensive summer camps, residencies, after-school programs, or creative classroom programming, these free programs help expand traditional ideas about academics, school, and learning in general.
With funding support from Vermont Humanities, educators around the state develop immersive, collaborative, project-based Humanities Camps that directly meet the needs of young people in their communities. The camps offer non-traditional ways to engage with the humanities as a broad and always-expanding discipline.
This statewide, one-book community reading program offers opportunities for readers of all abilities.
