The Florida Humanities Council invites K- 12 educators from across the U.S. to join distinguished archeologists, historians, and other scholars for a weeklong workshop: "Between Columbus and Jamestown: Spanish St. Augustine." Founded 55 years before the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock, St. Augustine, Florida is the oldest permanent European settlement in the U.S. and the place where most Western institutions first took root in American soil. It offers the perfect vantage point from which to examine another side of America's colonial experience, while placing Spanish Florida into the larger context of American history.
Four consecutive weeklong workshops
June 19-24 / June 26-July 1 / July 3-8 / July 10-15
Location: Flagler College, St. Augustine, Florida
Participants receive stipend
Application deadline: March 15, 2006
