Vermont Humanities sponsors Humanities Camps — intensive, week-long, summer day camp programs for middle school students — to engage young people with reading and the humanities. Youth are hungry for the opportunity to learn and discuss, and the camps introduce them to the world of literature and ideas, fostering self-expression in a safe, nurturing environment.
Poet Sarah Audsley joined us at the Taconic Mountains Ramble State Park for Words in the Woods.
Humanities Camps are filled with reading and writing projects, field trips, and outdoor activities.
We won a 2020 Schwartz Prize for best public humanities programming in the U.S. for Vermont Reads 2019: “March: Book One.”
We supported Historic New England’s “More than a Market” project that explored the experiences of new Americans through food markets.
Our free public events help bring the power of the humanities to communities across Vermont.
