About Weekend & Summer Seminars

Each Weekend and Summer Seminar runs for three days, often from Friday evening to Sunday afternoon. During those three days, a small group of teachers are immersed in learning and discussion of primary sources. Between discussion sessions, shared meals, and a visit to a local historical site, participants build connections with colleagues from around the country that last far beyond the seminar experience itself.
