The Clemente Course in the Humanities offers free, accredited college course in the humanities to low-income adults. It was founded in 1995 as a pilot project on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. As a community-based program, the course mobilizes social services and community organizations, state humanities councils, and institutions of higher learning. The Clemente Course has been supported in this endeavor by a dynamic partnership with Bard College, which for 20 years has granted academic credits to many of the course’s affiliate programs while also providing key support through academic oversight, collaborative fundraising, professional development, and outreach.
