Picturing America for Homeschoolers April 27, 2010

Picturing America is a program from the National Endowment for the Humanities in cooperation with the American Library Association; the program uses great works of art as a means for studying America’s history and culture. During this Picturing America session, we will be using the work of photographer Dorothea Lange. We’ll focus on her piece Migrant Mother and talk about experiences of Americans during the Dust Bowl and the Great Depression. This program is intended for home educated youth ages 12 and older. Registration is encouraged; for more information, or to register, please call the Library’s Youth Services Department at 607-778-6456.
