About the Junior Scholars Program: The Juniors Scholars
Programs Saturday sessions run from 10 am to 3 pm and are designed with an
inquiry-based and project-based approach to teaching about black American
history and the global black experience. Weekly, the Junior Scholars attend
college-style lectures and presentations, engage in dialogue with adult
scholars, participate in guided peer group discussions and activities, generate
individual research projects and portfolios, and create collaborative media and
arts projects that grow from their intensive study based on the Schomburg’s
vast collections, exhibitions, and educational resources.
