SUMMARY:2026 Teachers Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Riotous Assemblies: From Resistance to Revolution \nWe are pleased to announce that applications are now open for the 2026 Stratford Hall Teachers Seminar.\n\n\nHosted by Stratford Hall in partnership with Preservation Virginia from July 9–12\, 2026\, “Riotous Assemblies” will explore how enslaved\, ordinary\, and elite people contested imperial power.\n\n\nMoving beyond simple narratives of the founders\, this seminar examines the diverse mechanisms of popular dissent that shaped the path to independence—from boycotts and petitions to crowd actions\, clandestine networks\, and material sabotage. Participants will not only investigate the history of the 18th century but also discuss the continuing relevance of these tactics in free societies today.\n\nAPPLY NOW\nWhy Apply?\n\n\nBroaden the Narrative: Investigate how resistance was forged across class and racial lines.\n\n\nPlace-Based Inquiry: Walk the landscape where the Lees and the enslaved community navigated the shifting tides of revolution. Travel-study destination TBA.\n\n\nPedagogy Focus: Work with master teachers to translate these complex themes of power and protest into dynamic classroom lessons.\n\nWhat does the Seminar include? Onsite presentations from leading scholars\, an immersive travel-study excursion (stay tuned for location announcement!)\, and dedicated K–12 workshops translating historical insights into dynamic classroom lessons. \n  \nWhat’s covered? Meals\, excursion costs\, and single-room accommodations onsite at Stratford Hall are provided at no charge. We do request a $50 nonrefundable deposit to reserve your space upon acceptance to the Seminar. \n  \nAPPLICATIONS OPEN FEBRUARY 1\nAPPLICATIONS DUE MARCH 31\nINVITATIONS TO PARTICIPATE APRIL 5\nDEADLINE TO ACCEPT APRIL 10 (with $50 nonrefundable deposit)\nADMISSIONS FROM WAITLIST APRIL 15\nADMISSIONS CLOSED APRIL 20
