Joining host Bob Mann are Dr. John “Jack” Pesda, Director of The Center at Camden County College, and Maisy Card, Teen Services Librarian of the Newark Public Library.
The Incubation and Action Grant program at NJCH provides funding for public humanities projects through a competitive grant process. The Newark Public Library received an Action Grant to host a summer poetry workshop for teens and young adults, resulting in a published anthology of the work of the poet participants. Camden County College also received an Action Grant to examine the impact and lasting legacy of 1968, a year of intense social and political events and movements.
