The Morgan Library & Museum is an accredited sponsor for CTLE requirements. Teachers may credit these courses towards the New York State (NYS) 100 hours of Continuing Teacher and Leader Education (CTLE) requirement.
Join us for one of our Educator Professional Development workshops! Museum educators will share standards-aligned lesson plans and participants will leave each session with practical strategies for incorporating the Morgan’s permanent collection and rotating exhibition content into classroom lessons to support and supplement their curriculum.
Upcoming Workshops:
Colors of the World: Professional Development Workshop for Educators
4:30 – 6:30 PM
Thursday, March 27, 2025
Join us on site for an evening of history, art-making, and one of kind hands-on experiences.
Discover some of the Morgan’s finest medieval and Renaissance manuscripts and explore how books were made before the printing press. You will use traditional materials to grind natural materials into pigments, mix watercolor paints, apply 22-karat gold leaf, and create an original painted initial inspired by the Morgan’s manuscript collection.
Participants are also invited to apply early for the 25-26 Morgan Book Project, a free extended learning program for your students. Classes accepted to the Morgan Book Project will enjoy two free field trips, complementary pigments and artmaking materials, and learn how to write, illustrate, and build their own original accordion books.
This workshop is intended only for NYC Title 1 and D75 teachers and administrators of grades 3–12. This event is eligible for 2 CTLE credits. Participation is free but requires registration.
