Join us for:

  • An evening of community with educators from around the world. You’ll leave feeling connected to colleagues you never knew you had. 
  • Stories about life-changing teachers and amazing students. A true mix of the funny, insightful, poignant, and unforgettable. 
  • And of course, some Folger Method fun in the spirit of the season. We’ll dig into some choral reading so you’ll leave with a lesson you can use in December. 

This session will be led by Chanti Burnette, English teacher at Animo South Los Angeles Charter High School in Los Angeles, California and Liam Dempsey, Associate Director of Education at the Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington, DC.
