This event offers middle and high school teachers an opportunity to
meet with over 30 exhibitors who provide free civic education resources
for the classroom and beyond. Multiple organizations, including the
Freedom Museum, will feature election-related materials, as well as
resources designed to inspire youth civic engagement. With Constitution
Day just four days later on September 17, the fair will also be an
terrific place to pick up ideas for classroom- and school-wide
activities.

Attendees will enjoy free parking, a full
breakfast and the chance to network with colleagues from the city and
suburbs. Due to the popularity of this yearly event, you are encouraged
to take advantage of early bird registration.
