All Schools: Native New York: American Indians and Early New Amsterdam – Two-Day Workshop at the Museum of the City of New York and the National Museum of the American Indian

This workshop is having two-session, in-depth learning opportunity. Become conversant in elements of the art and culture of Native Americans, discover how the geography and natural environs of Mannahatta in the 1600s impacted the city’s growth and population, and compare and contrast the natural landscape and ecology of Mannahatta in 1609 to the island of Manhattan today. Educators will leave with resources to use in the classroom.

There is a $150 per person fee for the two sessions; participants may also register for 1 P Credit through the ASPDP. These programs are made possible by a grant from the Netherlands Consulate General in New York.
