For schools, district coordinators, and other educator groups: Learn how to make the most of The Huntington’s resources through private sessions with our Educator Programs team.

Get inspired by The Huntington’s resources with a private group educator orientation. Your group will enjoy a one-hour overview of how to take advantage of our school programs, digital classroom resources, and tools for object-based learning. If your group is interested in a specific subject or primary source, a two-hour customized experience is available.

Two-Hour Customized Experience

If your group is interested in a specific subject or primary source, our Educator Programs team can create a tailored two-hour workshop.
