Homeschool Days: Roaring Twenties and Turbulent Thirties

Homeschool students and their families are invited to explore the 1920s and 1930s and review the economic and social changes of the era from the post World War I boom years to the economic downturn marked by the Great Depression. Students will meet history player Wanda Gag, whose story of artistic innovation despite tremendous financial hardship reflected the experience of many Americans of the time. Students will participate in one of three lessons and will be able to view "American Spirits: The Rise and Fall of Prohibition," a travelling exhibit created by the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia.
