Gilder Lehrman Institute's Saturday Academies Program a Winner!

History Education Hawaii sends its congratulations to the The Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History.

We've received word that its Saturday Academies Program has been awarded one of the highest honors for youth programs in the United States. "We have been chosen as one of twelve winners of the 2011 National Arts and Humanities Youth Program Award (NAHYP) by the President’s Committee on the Arts and the Humanities and its partner agencies: the Institute of Museum and Library Services, the National Endowment for the Arts, and the National Endowment for the Humanities."

"The award recognizes outstanding after-school and out-of-school programs that transform the lives of young people. Award recipients exemplify how extracurricular arts and humanities programs enrich the lives of young people throughout the country by teaching new skills, nurturing creativity, and building self-confidence."

Yesterday, First Lady Michelle Obama presented the NAHYP award at the White House to the Gilder Lehrman Saturday Academies Program on November 2, 2011.

Gilder Lehrman President James G. Basker and student representative Robert Sandoval accepted the award.

The Gilder Lehrman Saturday Academies Program was selected as one of twelve winners from 470 nominations.
