Saturday May 4th – 9:30 AM to 5:00 PM TAG Education for Liberation Curriculum Fair and Citywide Summit Folk Arts and Cultural Treasures School, 1023 Callowhill Street
The morning Curriculum Fair will feature workshops, unit and lesson plans, projects, resources, and best practices for social justice education. This will be a space for educators to connect and exchange, learn from each other, and take new ideas back to their own classrooms. The afternoon Summit will be a space for building stronger community alliances for education justice, as parents, students, community members, and educators. Our public schools are under attack, and it will take a movement to fight back. Come learn from people who have organized together to save and transform their schools, and figure out how to take the lessons back to your school community.
The fair will also be featuring sessions hosted by The Attic Youth Center, Philadelphia Youth Poetry Movement, Decarcerate PA, and more!
