The Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History
@Gilder_Lehrman
The Institute is a nonprofit organization devoted to the teaching and learning of American history. Home of the Gilder Lehrman Collection and #EduHam.
We hosted our Annual Gala on May 12 and were blown away by the outpouring of support to help promote our mission of American history education. We celebrated the impact & work of @DorisKGoodwin, @RockefellerFdn, and the cast of @HamiltonMusical for 10 years of service to #EduHam.
Congratulations to our newest graduates! 🎓 Yesterday we celebrated the third graduating class of the Gettysburg College– @Gilder_Lehrman MA in American History program! #DoGreatWork
