This class has to be one of my favorite classes from this semester. I loved being able to take trips to different places and learn about Hartford writers. The professor was amazing when it came to making learning the topic, he made it enjoyable.

Hartford Heritage Project

HHP is a place-based education initiative of CT State Capital that incorporates our community into the curriculum. Museums, historical societies, parks, community centers, care facilities, local businesses, government agencies, and other valuable local resources become an extension of our classroom. 

Created in 1965 as an independent federal agency, the National Endowment for the Humanities supports research and learning in history, literature, philosophy, and other areas of the humanities by funding selected, peer-reviewed proposals from around the nation. Additional information about the National Endowment for the Humanities and its grant programs is available at: www.neh.gov.

HHP is a program of CT State Capital and has been made possible by support of the National Endowment for the Humanities.
