Castle Arts
Enriching area schools with a partnership between ethics and education
The Prindle Institute for Ethics regularly partners with The Castle, a local Putnam County organization that works to invigorate the curriculum of area schools through arts integration and project-based learning. The Prindle Institute and The Castle typically collaborate on three to four workshops a semester with the help of a dedicated Hillman intern, and together they reach hundreds of local students a year with lessons incorporating moral reasoning and ethical thought.
Previous modules produced by the Prindle Institute in collaboration with The Castle include an ethics of photography unit, a geologic timeline debate, and others. Former Graduate Fellow Conner Gordon explains his Civil War photography unit here.
