The Abenaki Educational Posters
                       "This poster series is an incredible resource for             teaching about Abenaki past and present in current-day New Hampshire. The text captures some of the most essential learning from Dr. Robert Goodby's archaeological work and distills it down to student-friendly language, thereby making some of the most important knowledge about this region accessible and meaningful to its youngest inhabitants. As he has remarked, this learning doesn't often extend beyond the world of scholarly journals, yet it has so much to teach us about the ground beneath our feet and the ways that humans have thrived here for thousands of years.
This series also serves to literally make more visible the original and ongoing caretakers of this land. The beautiful artwork helps make what can feel like distant history feel much more real to children and adults alike. Seeing the Abenaki community so lovingly portrayed helps humanize and legitimize a group that has too often been intentionally erased. The power of this artwork also lies in its incredible details, which invite the viewer to linger--I notice something new on each poster each time I revisit it. The photographs of artifacts from Dr. Goodby's archaeological work complement the paintings well by providing additional evidence for the very real community life portrayed in the paintings. 
I hope that these can be proudly displayed and utilized in all local schools to help our communities better understand, appreciate, and care for this land that has been home to humans for thousands of years."
