Workshop Overview
Deepen your knowledge and understanding of civic virtue, engage with the Center’s nonpartisan educational resources, and collaborate with your peers from around the country during a Weekend Workshop this spring! Weekend Workshops are held at the National Constitution Center, and take advantage of the Center’s exhibits and the surrounding history in Old City, Philadelphia.
Each month, participants will take a closer look at the civic virtues highlighted in the Center's civic virtue course. Specific readings and materials used in the workshop can be found in the course, What the Founders Meant by Happiness: A Journey Through Virtue and Character.
The Center covers the costs of all travel, lodging, and meals for those selected to participate, but space is limited to 18 educators. After the workshop, participants have the opportunity to schedule professional learning sessions for their school or district during the 2027-2028 school year at no cost to them.
These workshops are open exclusively to middle and high school teachers from across the nation; however, special consideration will be given to teachers who work in rural and underserved communities.
