  • 2008 Annual Report of the National Endowment for the Humanities
    200808 ANNUAL REPORT NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR THE HUMANITIES CHAIRMAN’S LETTER The President The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Mr. President: It is my privilege to present to you the 2008 annual report of the National Endowment for the Humanities. At the White House in February, I joined President Bush and Mrs. Bush to launch the largest and most ambitious nationwide initiative in NEH’s history: Picturing America, the newest element of our We the People program. Through Picturing America, NEH is distributing forty reproductions of American art masterpieces to schools and public libraries nationwide—where they will help stu- dents of all ages connect with the people, places, events, and ideas that have shaped our country. The selected works of art represent a broad range of American history and artistic achieve- ment, including Emanuel Leutze’s painting of Washington Crossing the Delaware; Mary Cassatt’s The Boating Party; the Chrysler Building in New York City; Norman Rockwell’s iconic Freedom of Speech; and James Karales’s stunning photo of the Selma-to-Montgomery March for Voting Rights in 1965. Accompanying the reproductions are a teacher’s guide and a dynamic website with ideas for using the images in the study of American history, literature, civics, and other subjects. During the first round of applications for Picturing America awards in the spring of 2008, nearly one-fifth of all the schools and public libraries in America applied for the program. In the fall, the first Picturing America sets arrived at more than 26,000 institutions nationwide, and we opened a second application window for Picturing America awards that will be distributed in 2009.

The Historic New Orleans Collection, home to a vast array of historical decorative arts and situated in the Vieux Carré, is an ideal loca- tion for the exploration and examination of antiques. We look forward to hosting the New Orleans Antiques Forum for years to come, with new topics and speakers at each forum. This event has been in the works for several years, and we would not be here today were it not for the dedication and tireless efforts of many people, especially our generous sponsors. I wish to extend special thanks to L’Hermitage, Evergreen, and Whitney plantations for opening their doors for our pre-forum plantation tour, and to Eugene Cizek and Lloyd Sensat for providing history along the way. The tour sold out very quickly, so register early for next year’s optional trip. I am also grateful to our speakers and the institutions they represent; their support of this event is sincerely appreciated. In addition, I thank the antique shops who will stay open late on a Friday in August for our French Quarter Antiques Stroll, as well as those individuals who will open their homes to attendees on Saturday.

  • A Feminist Perspective on New Orleans Jazzwomen
    A FEMINIST PERSPECTIVE ON NEW ORLEANS JAZZWOMEN Sherrie Tucker Principal Investigator Submitted by Center for Research University of Kansas 2385 Irving Hill Road Lawrence, KS 66045-7563 September 30, 2004 In Partial Fulfillment of #P5705010381 Submitted to New Orleans Jazz National Historical Park National Park Service 419 Rue Decatur New Orleans, LA 70130 This is a study of women in New Orleans jazz, contracted by the National Park Service, completed between 2001 and 2004. Women have participated in numerous ways, and in a variety of complex cultural contexts, throughout the history of jazz in New Orleans. While we do see traces of women’s participation in extant New Orleans jazz histories, we seldom see women presented as central to jazz culture. Therefore, they tend to appear to occupy minor or supporting roles, if they appear at all. This Research Study uses a feminist perspective to increase our knowledge of women and gender in New Orleans jazz history, roughly between 1880 and 1980, with an emphasis on the earlier years.

  • Cultural Vistas 2016 Annual Report
    STRENGTHENING THE TIES THAT UNITE US ANNUAL REPORT 2016 A MESSAGE FROM OUR EXECUTIVE TEAM At Cultural Vistas, ‘learning-by-doing’ is an essential institutional value. We believe that education is not complete without the opportunity to make connections and apply knowledge in a professional setting. When this experiential approach involves sustained immersion in another culture and language, the results are often transformative. For more than 50 years, Cultural Vistas has cultivated informed, skilled, empathetic, and engaged citizens and leaders at all levels of society with this belief as the foundation of our work. After five-plus decades of developing and implementing cultural exchange programs, we have come to understand these benefits extend well beyond any one individual. Exchanges provide our institutions and communities with an unrivaled understanding of other cultures and deep, durable connections. These connections allow for stronger partnerships, economic growth, and sustained dialogue needed to maintain peace and address the complex challenges we continue to face in our increasingly interdependent and complicated world. Annually, we serve and support over 1,000 businesses and organizations, and close to 6,000 individuals from 130 countries. We are grateful to our many partners, host institutions, friends, and supporters around the world who help us make these meaningful connections possible. It is humbling to work with thousands of students, professionals, educators, policy makers, journalists, governments, and NGOs whose lives and work are touched by our programs. Their stories affirm our mission and are shared throughout these pages. As we grow, we continue to invest in building new means for intercultural collaboration and shared learning.
