History education is a key theme for Brown 2026, scheduled to host National History Day for Rhode Island middle school and high school students in March 2026. During the Society for Historians of the Early American Republic (SHEAR) annual meeting held this year in Providence, historians presented “Ten Things” about the American Revolution for local educators and partnered on a professional development workshop with Rhode Island Historical Society. More Brown 2026 courses and events are under way. On Friday and  Saturday, September 26-27, Brown 2026 will be collaborating with the English Department on “Fictions of the American Revolution,” a conference at the John Nicholas Brown Center for Advanced Study. Brown 2026 also welcomes three senior fellows at the JNB Center for the upcoming academic year: Joseph M. Adelman, Professor of History at Framingham State University; Katherine Jewell, Professor of Economics, History and Political Science at Fitchburg State University; and Irene Peirano Garrison, Director of Graduate Studies and Pope Professor of the Latin Language and Literature at Harvard University. Additionally, Katy Telling joined the John Carter Brown Library as Postdoctoral 2026 Coordinator.
