"A new interactive online exhibit from the California Council for the Humanities (CCH) – We Are California – will explore the history and stories of those who have immigrated or migrated to California. A new partnership between the Council and the California History-Social Science Project (CHSSP) will help to bring this exciting resource to the classroom.

The topics of the workshops will be 'The Sikhs of Yuba City' and 'Sam Brannan and the Mormon Settlements of California.' Both presentations will include classroom ready materials aligned with the California History-Social Science Standards."

Participants in this workshop will learn about the 1890s immigration experience on the Near West Side of Chicago through compelling historical fiction narratives and visits to Hull-House and the Taylor Street and Prairie Avenue neighborhoods. Based on the Museum's collection, these stories form the core of the Great Chicago Stories website, an award-winning educational resource.
