Back-to-School Educator Evening with MOCA, Museum at Eldridge Street, and Henry Street Settlement
September 25, 2024, 4:00 pm – 5:30 pm
Join the Museum at Eldridge Street, Museum of Chinese in America (MOCA), and Henry Street Settlement for a special educator evening to learn about our tours, programs, and educational offerings for students of all ages.
Since New York City’s earliest days, the Lower East Side has been a focal point for immigration. As each new wave of immigrants reached our shores, it was on the Lower East Side where they would start their lives anew.
Each of our institutions explores a different facet of this history. We preserve stories, educate the public about immigration and migrant experiences past and present, and explore how these communities helped shape our national history.
Come down to Eldridge Street and meet educators from our respective institutions, and learn about the programming, trips, activities, and resources that can supplement your immigration units and enrich your students’ learning experience. You will also receive a mini tour of the Museum at Eldridge Street and 1 Continuing Teacher & Leader Education (CTLE) hour. A light snack will be served.
Note: This program will be held at the Museum at Eldridge Street, located at 12 Eldridge Street, New York, NY, 10002.
If you cannot make it in-person, an encore event will be offered virtually on 10/21/2024 at 6pm ET. To register for the virtual program, click HERE.
