This half-day professional development retreat featuring Sherry Cook Stanforth at Columbia Tusculum’s historical Carnegie Center offers teachers and community program leaders a creative escape.

We’ll be exploring Cincinnati’s unique territory, flowing with artistic inspiration, Urban Appalachian culture and history, and ecological surprises held in the Ohio River Watershed. We will practice a range of skills (field observation, personal meditation, narrative interpretation, and arts-based invention) to design unique, easy-to-implement classroom and collaborative community projects highlighting the value of creative processes and storytelling techniques. Urban history hiking excursion, local forager & cultural tasting table, guided (creative writing/visual arts) exercises and prompts, interdisciplinary connections, demonstrations and conversations with rising young teaching artists.

A CEU certificate can be provided after the program. You may attend this program and the Summer Teacher Institute for additional CEUs.
