Discovering Community Summer Institute for Educators

Over the next few weeks Gregory Sharrow and Andy Kolovos will transition into a co-directors role at the Vermont Folklife Center, which will necessitate a re-allocation of work responsibilities and a re-prioritization of staff time. Andy and I want to embrace the full opportunity of this transitional time by gathering our energies to conduct a thorough evaluation of our summer institute and school outreach programs, which were first established in 2005. Therefore we have concluded that it is prudent to re-schedule this year’s Discovering Community Summer Institute for June 2013 so that we have the entire summer to focus on evaluation and assessment.

If you have previously taken part in some aspect of our education program, in the next few weeks you’ll be hearing from us about participating in this evaluation process. If you haven’t, we look forward to having the opportunity to get to know you and work with you in the near future. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
