“Treat all men alike.... Give them all an even chance to live and grow. All men were made by the same Great Spirit. They are brothers.” Chief Joseph

t the foot of the U.S. Capitol, flanked by neoclassical icons, the oldest American culture gains a presence with the newest structure to be erected on the National Mall. A On September 21, the Smithsonian opened the National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI). Nearly 25,000 Native Americans in traditional regalia joined in an opening day procession down the Mall. At its core, the NMAI recognizes American Indians for their contributions not only to history but also to modern America. Native American voices helped shape the content and look of every exhibition, consulting on which stories to tell and how best to tell them. In all, 24 tribal communities worked with the Smithsonian to design the museum’s permanent exhibitions.

NMAI Honors the Past, Highlights the Present The museum immerses visitors in a tactile, colorful world of real people. In addition to a rich collection of historical objects, revolving exhibitions highlight Native American contemporary arts. The building itself makes a strong architectural statement; the warm Kasota limestone of its curvilinear façade recalls an American landscape buffeted by centuries of wind and water. Thousands of trees, shrubs, and plants around the museum recall the site’s original landscape and mark the importance of the Native peoples’ relationship with the environment. A virtual, as well as physical, museum, the NMAI shares its treasures through publications, CDs, and a curriculum guide already in the hands of thousands of schools nationwide. The museum is equipped with the technology to bring most of its collection online within five years. For all visitors, the NMAI illuminates a unique strand in America’s continuing story. For Native Americans, it is a joyous homecoming.

presenting treasures 5 Share: Service and Sacrifice

“Democracy is worth saving. Freedom is worth saving. This country is worth saving. That’s what I brought back with me.” Arnold Ropeik, World War II veteran

merica was born through war, and wars have established our borders, protected our freedom, and defined our place in history. The outcomes of wars are part of the American legend, but we are less familiar A with the price we pay — as a society and as individuals — for our land and our liberty. On Veterans Day, the National Museum of American History opened The Price of Freedom: Americans at War, the most comprehensive exhibition on military conflicts ever mounted. Supported by Kenneth E. Behring, the exhibition moves chronologically from the French and Indian War to the recent conflict in . An interactive Web site and detailed teachers’ manual extend its reach beyond the National Mall. While military history provides the framework, the exhibition’s power derives from tales of breathtaking heroism and personal sacrifice. Visitors learn how wars affect society long after formal hostilities end. For example, the Civil War and Vietnam War etched deep divisions in the national psyche, while World War II united Americans in a common cause and established America as a world power.

Objects and Voices Tell America’s Story The exhibition blends artifacts with voices and interpretations to paint an indelible picture. A Vietnam veteran tells how the distinctive sound of Huey helicopters signaled salvation to critically wounded soldiers. A 22-inch section of bullet-scarred tree trunk, a mute witness to the toll of war, is all that remains of a grand oak after fierce gunfire felled 2,000 Americans in a single day during the Civil War. Dozens of treasured items donated by Americans, including Medals of Honor, the highest award America bestows for valor in action, make the price of freedom personal. Interspersed with icons from our military past, such as George Washington’s sword and scabbard and General Sheridan’s horse Winchester, these precious possessions help form the mosaic that is America’s story.

presenting treasures 7 Share: Celebrating Half a Century

“We do not attempt to be prophets...only history can sort out from the activity of today what will endure....” Edgar P. Richardson, one of the founders, Archives of American Art

hat do letters, ledgers, and bills of sale tell us about the passion behind great art? Now celebrating its 50th anniversary, the Smithsonian’s Archives of American Art uses the mundane records of everyday life to Willuminate the most individual of human creations. Researchers using the Archives examine how existing conditions affected artists and their art. In 1954, when the Archives was founded, not a single professor of American art history existed. Valuable records that provided context to the story of American art were scattered in every city and town where artists lived. The Archives’ founders set about assembling what became the pre-eminent collection in the field, encompassing more than 15 million original items.

Documents Provide Insights into the Creative Process Letters, diaries, and journals offer insights into the creator’s state of mind, providing tantalizing glimpses of what lies behind the art. Sketches and drawings can serve as snapshots, capturing a moment of inspiration. Art dealers’ papers, price lists, and correspondence establish provenance or mark financial successes or failures. Records from the historic 1913 Armory Show, America’s first exhibition of European modern art, show how the public was slow to accept these new forms of expression. Often, the collection sheds light on broader American history. Records from the Depression-era Works Progress Administration, which employed many out-of-work artists, tell us as much about America’s hopes and fears as they do about the art. Through a remarkable oral history program, the Archives has interviewed hundreds of artists; these first-person narratives preserve the accents and inflections that add power to individual stories. For half a century, the Archives of American Art has preserved the past in a tangible way. It greets the next half century with a multi-million dollar grant from the Terra Foundation for American Art to digitize primary source material, making its treasures even more accessible to scholars and historians.

guiding discovery 11 Explore: A Rare Discovery

“You will never guess what you have.” Dr. Meave Leakey, paleontologist

ur prehistoric ancestors left plenty of clues about their existence. For more than 60 years, scientists digging at the Olorgesailie site in Kenya have discovered thousands of their stone tools; but Ountil recently, they could find no human fossils. Where — and who — were the early humans who made those tools? Then a research team, led by the Smithsonian’s Human Origins Program Director Dr. Richard Potts, unearthed fragments of an early human skull dated to about 900,000 years old. Reported in the July 2004 issue of the journal Science, the discovery fills in a 400,000-year gap in the human fossil record in Africa.

Understanding the Foundations of Human Life The Human Origins Program works in the National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C., and in laboratories and sites around the world to better understand the biological and cultural foundations of human life and the environments in which it thrived. Often, the research takes scientists to Africa, where we know that early humans lived as long as 6 million years ago. Until recently though, the fossil record went blank between 1 million and 600,000 years ago. The team’s recent discovery of fragments — brow ridge, left ear, and brain case — of a tiny, possibly female skull changes all that.

“For many of our visitors, domestic animals are as exotic as the rain forest monkey.” Bob King, Kids’ Farm curator

t the turn of the century, approximately 60 percent of Americans lived on a farm. Today, that figure has dropped below 2 percent. Our every meal depends on food grown on the nation’s farms, A but most Americans have never set foot on one. To acquaint America’s children with their agrarian roots, the National Zoo opened Kids’ Farm, an exhibition that links the food we eat to the farm, introduces youngsters to farm animals, and teaches them about their care. Young vis- itors help wash cows and groom donkeys in animal care modeled after the daily prac- tices of 4-H Club members. The exhibition breaks new ground for the National Zoo, marking its first program where children can actually touch the animals. Volunteers and staff help introduce youngsters to the farm’s cows, goats, ducks, and a variety of chickens.

Linking Food to the Farm The Zoo teaches children that their favorite foods, such as pizza, don’t just magically appear. Visitors learn how everything, from the wheat in its crust to the cheese in its toppings, comes from the farm. They spend time in a fragrant garden that supplies tomatoes and basil, and to combine learning with fun, they can crawl through the giant olive on a larger-than-life pizza play area. Rep. Ralph Regula (R-Ohio), himself a farmer, introduced the legislation that provided the $5 million appropriation from Congress that launched Kids’ Farm. The exhibition covers nearly two acres of Zoo ground and boasts a chicken coop and a light and airy old-fashioned barn that shelters animals from the elements — and is the envy of cows and farmers nationwide.

reaching americans 17 Connect: America Singing

“La música es mi bandera — the music is my flag.” Expression of Latino musicians

usic is a primal force in every culture. We express history in bal- lads, patriotism in anthems, and joy through song. Music is also an integral part of everyday life in America. From the syncopated Mrhythms of ragtime to the urban strains of hip-hop, music has always reflected our diversity. To recognize the important and growing presence of Latino culture in America, the Smithsonian’s Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage has developed the Latino Music Initiative. This multi-pronged program showcases the broad musical heritage of the more than 40 million Latinos living in the United States.

Bridging Culture Through Music Sometimes, a title says it all. Nuestra Música, beginning its first of four years as part of the Smithsonian Folklife Festival in 2004, makes the clear statement that Latino music is our music, the music of America. The very site of the Festival, the National Mall, provides a prominent stage for Latino musicians to gather and for thousands of visitors to hear their musical exchange. Each year, the program will explore different aspects of music from various Latino communities. To reach the many people who cannot attend the Festival, Smithsonian Folkways Recordings has started Tradiciones, a collection of CDs representing more than 20 Latino musical traditions, and a Web site offering bilingual materials. A good read accompanies a good listen; the CD notes about the musicians and music are so thor- ough that some school districts use them to develop curricula. The Latino Music Initiative introduces people worldwide to a rich segment of America’s musical past and present and, in so doing, invites them to learn more about themselves.

18 connect Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage

At a Glance The Latino Music Initiative showcases the musical heritage of Latinos, the fastest growing segment of America’s population. • One in every eight Americans is of Latino descent; Latino music is American music. • Folkways’ Tradiciones will produce a total of 25 CDs of Latino music. • To date, the CDs received four Grammy nominations and aired on 500 radio stations. • The Smithsonian Folklife Festival pre- sented Latino music to nearly 1 million visitors in 2004. • One hundred Latino musicians and dancers, representing 10 Latino musical traditions, shared the Festival stage.

“As the most visible women in America, first ladies have evolved from the presidents’ social and ceremonial partners to advocates of social causes and political allies in their own right.” Edith Mayo, curator emeritus, National Museum of American History

he 143.7 million objects in the Smithsonian collections are held in trust for the American people. Millions visit our museums each year, but to provide even greater access for the rightful owners, the T Smithsonian organizes traveling exhibitions that take our treasures, artifacts, and research to hundreds of American communities annually. Every year, the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service (SITES) circulates between 50 and 60 exhibitions on art, history, science, and popular culture and has 10 more in production. A special initiative, Museum on Main Street, partners with state humanities councils nationwide to share Smithsonian collections with Americans in remote, rural locations. Going where people live, work, and spend their leisure time, SITES sends exhibi- tions to local museums and libraries, community centers and historical societies, municipal buildings and schools, shopping malls, and train depots.

Celebrating the American Experience The Smithsonian staff shapes the scope and content of SITES exhibitions, many of which explore the vitality of the American experience. Highlights from 2004 include exhibitions that celebrate the nation’s history, its ingenuity, and its traditions. First Ladies: Political Role and Public Image presents more than 150 objects from the National Museum of American History’s rarely traveled First Ladies Collection and illustrates how the role has evolved from ceremonial partner to one of recognized political partner and international celebrity. Sports: Breaking Records, Breaking Barriers portrays notable athletes from more than a dozen sports who energized and transformed American society, featuring artifacts that emphasize issues such as women’s changing roles and racial and ethnic integration. Doodles, Drafts, and Designs features 74 original sketches and drawings that showcase 200 years of American ingenuity and include some of the world’s best-known products — from turbines to Tupperware — as well as ideas that never got off the drawing board.
