Possible titles for school group:

We’ll also vote on this statement and 3 overarching learning goals for the program:

Statement:
This educational program complements the Heart of the Home exhibit at the Yager Museum of Art and Culture at Hartwick College. Through interactive experiences in the museum, this teacher-led program delves into the home and work life of women in the late 19th century. During their visit students will:

1) Understand the difficulty in making a new life and a living in American during this time period.
2) Learn about how culture influences home and work life.
3) Compare home and work then and today.

The teacher is Sandy Bright and her email is brights@hartwick.edu.
