COURSE OVERVIEW
Everyone enjoyed Shear Madness. The Show was interactive and it was lots of fun how they brought us into the show. Best Birthday ever.
From The Crucible to The Hate U Give, the U.S. has inspired some of the world’s most thought-provoking literature. We will learn about strength and resilience in D.C. with visits to the Holocaust Memorial Museum and the National Museum of African American History & Culture.
In New York, we will celebrate the Harlem Renaissance’s lasting influence on literature before taking in a show at the legendary Apollo Theatre. We will explore the best of New York with visits to Times Square, the MOMA, Chelsea and Greenwich Village!
