Windows to A Multicultural World modules for K-12 field trips
Our set of educational enrichment modules are delivered on-site at the Clemmons Family Farm and offer a range of content covering African-American and African diaspora history, art, culture and geography content. |
Our "Windows to A Multicultural World" educational enrichment programs provide a unique opportunity for school field trips to the historic Clemmons Family Farm in Charlotte, Vermont.
We offer six separate modules with a range of age-appropriate place-based learning activities grounded in African-American history and African diaspora art, culture and geography. Many of the field trip modules offered at the Clemmons Family Farm are facilitated by artists, culture bearers and scholars of African descent. Our arts programs engage students in experiences that foster the development of their positive identities and empathy as members of a multicultural world. Our collaborating artists are Vermont residents and include dancers and choreographers, film makers and photographers, musicians and singers, poets, playwrights and actors, storytellers and spoken word artists, costume designers, painters, weavers, culinary artists, makers and more!

Each module is developed to meet specific place-based learning objectives and to address selected Core Curriculum Standards for the State of Vermont.
Helping All Children Become World Citizens
H.3, the Ethnic and Social Equity in Schools bill, is a new law in Vermont that ushers ethnic studies into our statewide educational standards along with policies that promote ethnic and social equity in schools. Our "Windows to A Multicultural World" field trips are designed to help schools to get a head start on meeting these emerging standards and to support the efforts that many schools are already making to help their students acquire the skills, attitudes and exposure to multicultural settings that they need to reach their full potential as citizens of the world.
