After two years of COVID disruptions we are excited to announce that our annual AP Human Geography Academy is returning this fall. The theme of this year’s academy is Spacemaking and Placemaking in the 21st Century: A Field Study of Geographic Intersectionality and is being held on October 7-9, 2022 in Richmond, Virginia.
Academy activities include an augmented reality tour of Monument Avenue and walking tour of the Canal Walk through downtown Richmond, a visit to the newly renovated Virginia Museum of History and Culture, and a film screening of the documentary “How the Monuments Came Down”. In addition, we have booked speakers from the Center for European Union, Transatlantic, and Trans-European Space Studies, the University of Richmond, and the Valentine Museum.
If you would like to attend this year’s academy, complete the registration form at bit.ly/Landscapes2022 no later than September 26, 2022. Please share the attached academy flyer with colleagues as teachers from all curriculum areas are always welcome to attend.
If you have any questions please reach out to Stephen Chamberlin at chambsti@gmail.com or Shannon Castelo at shannon.castelo@gmail.com. We look forward to seeing you in the fall and hope you have a great summer break!
