Christine Faith, NCPTT Heritage Education Coordinator, visited Alder Gulch and Virginia City, Montana, in March to study heritage education programs in the area and discuss possible collaborations. She observed staff from the Montana Heritage Commission conveying key heritage education concepts to Dr. Linda Reiten’s education students at the University of Montana Western.
Faith was impressed with the quality of Montana's cultural resources and sees great potential for using it in communicating the American West’s educational infrastructure in NCPTT's Heritage Education program.
