Join us for a tour of the exhibition ¡Presente!  A Latino History of the United States, providing educators with a comprehensive understanding of the contributions and experiences of Latino communities in American history. Engage in a hands-on activity at the GM Learning Lounge. Inspired by the museum's collaboration with family literacy programs, attendees will learn best practices for museum-community art projects and gain insights into working with adult English language learners. Participants will learn how to replicate similar projects in their own learning contexts by using the museum's online resources.
