The William Morris Society invites members of ARLIS/NA to consider joining efforts to promote its new "Teaching Morris" initiative.

Governing board members Jane Carlin and Jason Martinek are spearheading this effort. We're looking not only to provide a clearinghouse for teaching materials already available about William Morris and his circle, but also to encourage the preparation of new materials. Our goal is to have resources for K-12 teachers as well as college and university professors. We also want to find a conference venue to share and showcase innovative approaches to teaching Morris that will engage and help foster a new generation of Morris scholars.  As part of this effort, the governing body of the WMS has approved the creation of a "Teaching Morris" advisory board.

 

We are looking for nominations for the advisory board. If you are interested in self-nominating please email Jason at [log in to unmask] or Jane at [log in to unmask]. As part of the self-nomination please include a short paragraph introducing yourself and another expressing an idea or two about promoting Morris's life and legacy.
