The program benefits Berkshire County teachers to gain credit points toward their professional licensure. Katherine Vause, MSEd., Ventfort Hall’s education director, is facilitating the program.Ventfort Hall has secured a grant from the Housatonic Heritage Foundation that allows the organization to offer the free Learning from the Past series to teachers in K-12 classrooms for the history and social studies core curriculum. $16 non-member; $14 member
