Education

The Education Division is committed to increasing access to humanities-based education and educational programming for K-12 students, teachers, and adults throughout Illinois.

Programs are provided for K-12 students and teachers through the Gwendolyn Brooks Youth Poetry Awards, Capitol Forum, and Sojourner Scholars, programs for adults who have historically had limited or no access to higher education through The Odyssey Project, and individual public educational programs for communities throughout the state who want to learn about and continue engaging with the wide-range of humanities topics offered through the Road Scholars Speaker's Bureau.
