TO THE CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES: 

It is my special pleasure to transmit herewith the Annual Report of the 

National Endowment for the Arts for the fiscal year 1993. 

The National Endowment for the Arts has awarded over 100,000 grants 

since 1965 for arts projects that touch every community in the Nation. 

Through its grants to individual artists, the agency has helped to launch and 

sustain the voice and grace of a generation--such as the brilliance of Rita 

Dove, now the U.S. Poet Laureate, or the daring of dancer Arthur Mitchell. 

Through its grants to art organizations, it has helped invigorate community 

arts centers and museums, preserve our folk heritage, and advance the performing, literary, and visual arts. 

Since its inception, the Arts Endowment has believed that all children 

should have an education in the arts. Over the past few years, the agency has 

worked hard to include the arts in our national education reform movement. 

Today, the arts are helping to lead the way in renewing American schools. 

I have seen first-hand the success story of this small agency. In my home 

State of Arkansas, the National Endowment for the Arts worked in partnership 

with the State arts agency and the private sector to bring artists into our 

schools, to help cities revive downtown centers, and to support opera and jazz, 

literature and music. All across the United States, the Endowment invests in 

our cultural institutions and artists. People in communities small and large in 

every State have greater opportunities to participate and enjoy the arts. We all 

benefit from this increased arts presence, and yet the cost is just 65 cents per 

American. The payback in economic terms has always been several-fold. The 

payback in human benefit is incalculable.

Dear Mr. President: 

I have the honor to submit to you the Annual Report of the 

National Endowment for the Arts for the fiscal year ended 

September 30, 1993. 

Respectfully, 

Jane Alexander 

Chairman 

The President 

The White House 

Washington, D.C. 

August 1994 

 TATEMENT
 

was a year of transition and attainment at the 

National Endowment for the Arts. Transition was, of 

course, prompted by the election of President Clinton 

and his vision of new directions for both government 

and nation. Attainment lay in the remarkable manner 

that the Endowment carried on its work during Fiscal 

Year 1993--from October 1, 1992 to September 30, 

1993--during which time the agency operated without 

a chairman who had been appointed by a president and 

confirmed by the Senate. 

Fiscal Year ’93 brought, for example, the transformation 

of the old Office of International Activities as the fullfledged International Program. This change signalled to 

applicants and potential funding partners alike the 

Endowment’s long-term commitment to grant-making 

in the international arena. One of the new program’s 

first concrete achievements was creation of the United 

States/Canada/Mexico Creative Artists’ Residencies, the 

first trilateral exchange program of its kind. The year 

also saw expansion of ArtsLink, which fosters exchanges 

by U.S. artists and arts administrators with their counterparts in Eastern and Central Europe and the former 

Soviet Union. (For more details on these and other grant 

categories, see the relevant chapters below.) 

Another culmination came in the Endowment’s publication of Dancemakers, a research study which demonstrated conclusively what insiders have argued for years: that 

the very creators of America’s great cultural export, 

dance, are an economically endangered species. Given 

the economic facts of their lives, it is remarkable that 

choreographers continue to create new dances. Yet continue they do, collectively demonstrating one of the definitive traits of the artist suigenerir, to be is to create. 

Like many Americans, I tend to regard museums, foundations and conservatories as institutions of admirable 
stability. Yet the Endowment helped growth and innovation occur in these institutions as well. For example, 

Museum Program funds in FY ’93 helped the University 

of Wyoming open its new American Heritage Center 

and Art Museum in Laramie. Our Challenge Program 

helped the decades-old Carter G. Woodson Foundation 

expand its Black Culture on Tour in America project to 

establish a Mid-Atlantic/New England touring circuit, 

and thus extend its scope and serve vastly increased audiences. The Challenge Program also helped the North 

Carolina School of the Arts establish a filmmaking 

academy this year. 

In the realm of music, FY ’93 saw a da capo and crescendo. The Chamber Music Rural Residencies, an innovation just a year ago, brought ensembles of chamber and 

jazz players to establish residencies in Georgia, Iowa and 

Kansas. The communities that welcomed them have 

generally lacked live classical music in the past; this initiative brought the living presence of professional musicians to perform in schools and church halls, to provide 

instruction, and in general to encourage the growth of a 

new cultural resource in rural places. In addition, music 

found new listeners through the Media Arts Program, 

which helped a remarkable 26-program series, "Wade in 

the Water: African-American Sacred Music Traditions," 

reach the national airwaves via public broadcasting. 

These projects are a few of those supported by the 4,096 

grants detailed in this report for Fiscal Year 1993. These in 

turn represented some 16,259 applications for assistance 

which the Endowment received from every corner of the 

nation. Discipline by discipline, program by program and 

category by category, these applications were reviewed by 

1,005 professionally qualified individuals and lay persons 

who served on 138 separate panels during the year. These 

panels’ recommendations were in turn forwarded to the 

National Council on the Arts for its review and endorsement for approval by the acting chairman. 

The few thousand grants described in this Annual Report 

testify to the Endowment’s fidelity to its mission: to stimulate all the arts throughout the land; to support excellence in the arts; to offer opportunities for the American 

people to participate in the arts as creators and performers (whether, for instance, as painters on new canvas or 

singers of old songs) and as consumers of the arts, namely 

as members of living audiences. 

It is all the more notable that these grants were awarded 

during a year that was intrinsically transitional for the 

nation. FY ’93 was barely six weeks old when the people 

of the United States went to the polls and elected a new 

president. After Mr. Clinton was inaugurated the following January, he nominated the sixth chairman of the 

National Endowment for the Arts. The Senate confirmed the appointment and my swearing-in occurred 

a few days after the new fiscal year began. So it was that 

the Endowment had operated without a presidentiallyappointed executive for the entire Fiscal Year 1993. 

During much of this period the power of the chairman 

resided in Madeleine Kunin who had been confirmed as 

Deputy Secretary of Education by the Senate. She in 

turn conferred practical, day-to-day authority to Ana M. 

Steele, as the Endowment’s Acting Senior Deputy 

Chairman. Ms. Steele had been Acting Chairman briefly, 

after the previous administration’s acting chairman resigned, and she would become de facto Senior Deputy 

Chairman in time. 

The fact remains that during Fiscal Year 1993, the work 

of the National Endowment for the Arts continued, 

thanks to the stewardship of Ms. Steele and to the work 

of barely 250 dedicated civil servants. This is a credit to 

our democracy, the very soul of continuity in government that is the strength of this republic. 

Having joined the task after the dose of FY ’93, I am 

proud to endorse this Annual Report which covers the 

previous period. In so doing, I extend America’s thanks to 

those who kept alight the embers of Federal support for 

the arts. Now let us fan the flames of new creativity in our 

writers, composers and painters from Maine to Guam. Let 

us find comfort and inspiration in the cultural endeavors 

of this land. Let us find new laughter and wisdom alike on 

stages and screens and pages from Anchorage to the 

Virgin Islands. Let us encourage children and young 

adults from the Upper Peninsula to the Outer Banks and 

the High Desert to discover the arts as vehicles for their 

own creative energies and as hopeful mirrors of their 

dreams. Let us listen to scientists and bend new technologies into the service of the arts, which means to the service 

of humankind. Let this agency continue the work it began 

more than a generation ago, and may our age come to be 

remembered as the time of an American Renaissance.

Arts 

Endowment 

The Arts Endowment serves as a catalyst to increase opportunities for artists and resources for arts organizations. It also spurs involvement in the arts by citizens, 

public and private organizations, and the states and local 

communities. The agency awards grants to nonprofit 

arts organizations to help support outstanding performances, exhibitions, projects and programs. It provides 

fellowships to American artists of exceptional talent in 

order to stimulate creation of new works of art, expand 

the nation’s artistic resources and promote preservation 

of diverse cultural legacies. It funds projects whose goal 

is to educate (formally or informally) children and adults 

in the arts. It works in partnership with state and local 

arts agencies and regional organizations in order to promote mutual goals for the arts and our citizens across the 

United States. 
panel discusses applications and support materials in 

light of the review criteria in the existing guidelines, and 

makes recommendations for funding. 

Twenty-six distinguished citizens, appointed by the 

President and confirmed by the Senate, plus the 

Chairman of the Endowment, constitute the National 

Council on the Arts. These citizens have broad experience in the various arts disciplines and in the major aspects of artistic enterprise such as creation, performance, 

presentation, preservation, administration and patronage. Representing the variety of artistic disciplines and 

genres in America, collectively the Council transcends 

single artistic interests as well as narrow geographic, 

ethnic and philosophical bounds. 

The Council advises the Chairman on policies, programs and procedures. It also reviews and makes recommendations on grant applications. Council members 

serve six-year terms, staggered so that roughly one-third 

of the Council membership rotates every two years. 

The Advisory Panels 

Panels composed of private citizens advise the Endowment’s individual programs. They review applications, 

identify issues of artistic concern to the field and the 

American public, and help inform the policies and programs through which the Endowment pursues its mission. 

1993 Annual Report 13 
Nominations for panelists can come from any source including the public at large; from artists, organizations, and 

leaders in the arts field; from members of Congress; from 

Endowment staffand Council members. Membership on 

the panels rotates regularly; no member may serve on a 

panel more than three consecutive years. No individual 

may serve on a panel who has a pending application before it or who is an employee or agent of an organization 

with a pending application before that panel. 

Methods of Funding 

Grant money authorized by Congress comes to the 

Endowment as Program Funds, Treasury Funds and 

Challenge Grant funds. Most direct grants to organizations and individuals come from Program funds. Most 

grants to organizations must be matched at least dollarfor-dollar with funds from other sources. Grants to individuals do not require matching funds. Treasury Fund 

grants, awards designed to help applicants increase or 

sustain non-Federal contributions, generally must be 

matched with at least three non-Federal dollars for each 

Federal dollar. 

Grants from the Challenge Program, which must be 

matched at least three-to-one, stimulate support for significant long-term endeavors. Ranging up to $1 million, 

Challenge Grants this year assisted projects that promote 

expanded artistry, enhance access and art appreciation, 

and strengthen arts support systems. 

(In addition to program funds, Congress appropriates 

administrative money that enables the Endowment to 

perform its work. This year administrative costs used 

barely 14 percent of appropriated funds. 
the recipient. This year more than 8 percent of the 

Endowment’s grant dollars support projects whose benefits extend to the region of the grantee. With even broader effect, more than 22 percent of Endowment grant 

funds support projects of national impact. Many of these 

attract audiences nationwide through radio or TV broad[ 

casting, publications or recordings. Others reach wide 

audiences through touring--of a dance company or a 

sculpture exhibition, for example. Still other grants have 

a national impact on their arts field by providing management or technical assistance, professional training, career development, research or information. Because of 

their importance, grants having national impact are 

flagged throughout this report with a star. 

Financial summaries conclude the book. The first part of

1993 Annual Report 17 
American dance is internationally renowned for its pathbreaking creativity and the breadth of its development 

across an incomparable profusion of forms and traditions. 

For nearly three decades, Arts Endowment assistance has 

been a major force in fostering excellence, vitality and diversiry in dance nationwide, and in expanding its availability and appreciation. 

Though this country’s historic choreographic achievements are recognized around the world--dance is 

among our finest exports--choreographers are virtually 

second class citizens. Dancemakers, a report published 

by the Endowment in FY 93, describes the woefully inadequate conditions in which choreographers carry on 

their work and their lives. Financial rewards are meager, 

especially when compared with other professionals of 

commensurate educational levels and age. 

The history of dance in the United States has been 

marked by prodigious invention and brilliant new forms 

forged out of the convergence of many cultural traditions and expressions and an American tradition of artis18 National Endowment for the Arts 
tic independence and innovation. This year the Dance 

Program continued to invest in the creativity of the field 

through grants to choreographers and dance companies 

working in a wide array of idioms and aesthetic choices. 

Since the Endowment’s beginnings, the agency has recognized the need to help the individual choreographer as a keystone of U.S. artistic advancement. This year the Program provided 

fellowship support to 46 professional choreographers ranging in age from 19 to 79. 

The work of these artists has attained a 

level of national excellence in a variety 

of idioms including African American, 

Asian American, ballet, classical Asian 

Indian, clogging, hip-hop, ice dancing, jazz, modern, post-modern, 

Spanish, social, tap, and others. 

These grants--ranging from one 

to three years in duration-- enable artists to pay dancers, rent 

space for rehearsals and performance, rework materials,
 

preserve their work and teach it to
 

others, and prepare new choreography.
 

Side by side in this year’s applicant pool were numbers 

of active master choreographers and the younger artists 

they have nurtured or inspired. Among the recipients 

continue in the repertory for the future. Ulysses Dove of 

NY, a free-lance choreographer, received a three-year fellowship in recognition of his innovative choreography 

for both ballet and modern dance companies. He has 

won commissions from American Ballet Theatre, the 

Alvin Alley American Dance Theatre, Dayton Contemporary Dance Company and the Swedish National 

Ballet, among others. 

To recognize the critical off-stage role 

that individual teachers and 

mentors have played 

in inspiring choreographic development, 

the Program initiated 

Master Teachers/Mentors 

Fellowship Grants in collaboration with the Arts in 

Education Program. Selected 

from nominations by the field, 

four distinguished individuals 

received the first grants: Talley 

Beatty of New York, Katherine 

Dunham of East St. Louis, Illinois, 

Daniel Nagrin of Tempe, Arizona, 

and Bessie Schonberg of New York. 

Through their teaching over many 

decades, they have influenced the development of American choreographers and the art form in 

was the youngest artist to receive a dance fellowship frommajor ways. Each continues to work with students and 

the Arts Endowment. At age 19, Savion Glover has been professional artists in many parts of the country. 

acclaimed by his mentors as perhaps the most prodigiously talented and promising creative jazz tap dancer ofThe year’s Dance Company Grants went to 108 profesall time. Best known for his performances on Broadway 

and as a featured cast member on Sesame Street, he has 

been making dances and will use his grant to continue 

creating and teaching younger tap dancers in Boston, 

Washington and New York. 

Cholly Atkins, formerly of the legendary tap team Coles 

& Atkins and a towering figure in Motown music, was 

awarded a rare three-year fellowship for his continued 

work in "vocal choreography." (He has directed the 

movements of The Temptations, Gladys Knight and the 

Pips, the O’Jays and many others). Mr. Atkins recently 

began to teach master classes and plans to continue his 

teaching activities at major tap and jazz festivals and in 

high schools and colleges. 

The venerable dance artist Jose Greco will use his fellowsional dance companies in 19 states, the District of 

Columbia, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. These 

grants provide assistance for a variety of activities including the creation and production of new work, educational 

projects, touring and home seasons. 

The San Francisco Ballet’s season of some 60 repertory 

performances will include a new production of Romeo 

and Juliet by company director Helgi Tomasson. The 

premiere has occasioned a major conference sponsored 

by the Dance Critics Association to examine the history 

of ballets on this subject. Ballet Hispanico of New York 

used part of its company grant to support the "Primeros 

Pasos" educational program which introduces public 

school children to dance and Hispanic culture. The 

Eugene Ballet of Eugene, Oregon planned one of the 

most ambitious touring seasons in its history--travelling 

ship to ensure that his choreographies (and the tradition-to over 40 sites in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, 

al Spanish dance forms that he performed worldwide) Montana, Wyoming, Arizona, New Mexico and

California--bringing performances and educational 

activities to rural communities that have little exposure 

to professional dance.

The Grants to Dance Presenters category helped assure 

programming and residency activities of the highest level 

for artists, companies and host communities. Among the 

50 grantees, the American Dance Festival in Durham, 

North Carolina, celebrating its 60th Anniversary, commissioned new work from American modern masters 

Paul Taylor and Merce Cunningham, among others. The 

festival is an international crucible and training ground 

for choreographic exploration and educational programs. 

Columbia College, continuing its active engagement 

with artists and communities in Chicago, plans to present a major tap festival curated by Chicago resident 

artist Sarah Petronio. And Byrne Miller Dance Theater 

in Beaufort, South Carolina, a first-time applicant, received a grant to help bring to its community four dance 

companies from other parts of the country. 

In the Services to the Field category, grants helped address crucial artistic and professional needs, including 

performance and rehearsal space and opportunities, assistance with financial and management matters, communication within the dance world, promotion of public 

awareness of dance, and documentation services. Dallas 

Black Dance Theatre’s grant offset the costs of hosting

2,000 persons, including students of all ages. Preserve, 

Inc. in Lee, Massachusetts is using its grant to develop, 

produce and distribute a comprehensive manual providing dance companies and artists technical assistance to 

help them document and preserve materials. In celebration of its tenth year as the first year-round dance theater 

in the country, the Joyce Theatre in New York used its 

grant to reduce rental fees to dance companies by rolling 

back these fees to 1983 levels. 

In the Special Projects category, the Program continued 

its support of the dance residencies component of the 

National Performance Network, helping 21 artists and 

companies conduct one- and two-week residencies 

through 51 performing arts organizations and community centers in 26 cities. The Dance Program’s collaboration with Dance on Tour, to help strengthen dance touring throughout the United States, provided partial 

support through the Western States Arts Federation to 

29 presenters and 29 dance artists and companies to 

offset costs of these engagements in 11 western states. 

In the spring and summer of 1993, the Endowment-supported "America Dancing" effort inspired 62 projects in 

59 locations and 29 states plus the District of Columbia 

to highlight the rich diversity of dance in their communities. This was a public participation project created in 

conjunction with the Endowment-supported major public television series "Dancing."

1993 Annual Report 29 
Much of the Design Arts Program’s activity in FY 93 was 

prompted by a position paper written by our Presidential 

Design Awards jury the previous year: 

The federal government shall provide leadership in 

promoting excellence in design. Federal agencies 

shall use and encourage the highest standards of 

design in their direct and assisted activities. 

Our success in revitalizing the economy and our 

ability to compete effectively in international markets depends greatly on design quality. Good design combines problem solving with cost-effectiveness and performance with beauty. The federal 

government, as the nation’s single largest builder, 

printer and user of design services, can have a significant influence on design. Federal agencies shall 

exercise that influence in a coherent and responsible way for the benefit of our citizens so that federal spending on design becomes an investment in 

enriching the quality of American life and the 

beauty of the natural and built environment, in 

promoting efficiency in government, and in helping to meet pressing national challenges, such as 

national and international competition, environmental quality and energy conservation. 

Early in the fiscal year, a Presidential Transition Round 

Table in Little Rock considered the role of design in the 

country’s economic recovery. Conference participants 

30 National Endowment for the Arts 
came at the invitation of a task force appointed by 

President-elect Clinton to discuss the potential of the design professions to further stimulate 

America’s economy. The discussion 

prompted a white paper addressing 

three areas of importance, which 

were organized into ideas for design 

initiatives. These priority areas highlight and affirm both the recent 

jury’s position quoted above and the 

Design Arts Program’s long standing 

mandate. The white paper’s proposed initiatives were: 

innovation in order to return American business to the 

forefront of economic competitiveness. 

 ̄ An Urban Design Initiative to restore 

our cities and towns and to create new 

and sustainable communities for the 

21 st century. 

 ̄ An Inclusive Design Initiative to develop design standards that remove 

barriers to participation in government 

and access to the public realm. 

 ̄ A Strategic Design Initiative to foster collaboration byTwenty additional initiatives were recommended by the designers, manufacturers and investors in key areas of presidential round table, fourteen of them either identi1993 Annual Report 31 
ing in elementary and secondary schools. The project cal or closely related to the Design Arts Program’s grant will focus on techniques of the design process that can categories and/or leadership initiatives. be used to motivate students, to hone their creative and 

critical skills, and to promote collaborative learning. Related to the strategic design initiative, are the 

;I

Presidential Design Awards, a two-tier program that recognizes design excellence in federally funded projects. The 

Design Arts Program selects winners of Federal Design 

Achievement Awards through a juried process; winners of 

<~ the Presidential Awards for Design Excellence are then 

chosen from among the Achievement Award winners by 

another independent jury. 

The program also sponsored two national design conferences this year on: "The Merits ofa U.S. Design 

Council and Office of Federal Design Quality" and 

"Public Service Design Abroad." The first investigated design councils in five countries and fostered debate 

on their relative merits by practicing designers, business and industry representatives, design and business 

management educators, and federal officials. The second brought together federal design managers and designers to look at successful design models, technologies and processes from Europe and Japan. Both efforts 

related to the nation’s position in the global market 

place, with. respect to competitiveness and design quality in government. 

The call for an urban design initiative is also being 

met by this program, as demonstrated in three continuing leadership initiatives: The Mayors Institute on 

City Design, Design For Housing, and Your TownDesigning Its Future. They all attempt to deliver the 

principles of good design to communities in need. 

These programs are participatory and encourage the 

dissemination of good design practice to larger audiences on an ongoing basis. 

Education has always been a mainstay of the Design 

Arts Program, with emphasis placed on a broad-based 

effort to raise public awareness of the importance of 

good design. The program is also taking a more active 

roll in educational reform efforts. Through a cooperative agreement with the Organization & Management 

Group, Inc., Learning Through Design seeks to illuminate the potential of using design as a catalyst for learnThe Little Rock round table called for an inclusive design initiative for the development and promotion of 

universal design efforts to revolutionize the govern° 

ment’s tools for participation, simplifying the procurement process and building monuments to inclusion. 

The Design Arts Program has been active in encouraging the design of products, buildings and public spaces 

for people of all ages and abilities both through its grant 

categories and through promotion of a video, "Toward 

Universal Design." 

Through inter-agency agreements, the program has 

been involved in enhancing procurement procedures at 

the General Services Administration. In collaboration 

with the Department of Agriculture’s Soil Conserva 

tion Service, we supported a rural design demonstration project. The Department of Education is involved 

in the development of a graphic identification and 

marketing program. 

In addition, the program has been instrumental in administering design competitions, awards programs and 

design seminars for agencies like the Department of 

Transportation, Department of the Navy, and the Postal 

Service. These efforts have given federal agencies a better 

understanding of and commitment to design quality. 

Design Arts is uniquely situated to act as a catalyst in 

bringing together all federal entities that are involved in 

the design process. As the nation’s largest design client, 

the federal government has the ability and the responsibility not only to demand quality but to create projects 

and products that exemplify and set standards for others to match. 

The Design Arts Program will strive to knit together 

all aspects of government’s involvement in fulfillment 

of its mandate to promote design excellence, raise design awareness and guarantee accessibility to good de° 

sign at all levels.

The Expansion Arts Organizations category supports 

the production, the presentation of art, and the training 

of gifted individuals who have the potential to be career 

artists. This training is valuable in communities where 

there are few opportunities for talented individuals, particularly the young, to receive vigorous, disciplined instruction. This category supports a range of disciplinebased projects in such fields as the visual arts, media, 

design, literature, dance, music and theater. 

The program is particularly proud of the range of community-based arts organizations it supports throughout 

the nation. For example, this year the program awarded 

a grant to the Boys Choir of Harlem to continue its professionally directed music training program for over 300 

inner-city youth and to provide performances throughout the nation by its Concert Choir, which presents the 

works of American master composers such as Ellington, 

Gershwin and 

Joplin. In June 

1993, the 

Concert Choir 

performed as 

the intermission 

guest for the 

television special, Pavarotti in the Park, which reached an 

estimated domestic audience of 250 million and was 

broadcast in 48 countries. 

In White River Junction, Vermont, funds were provided to River City Arts Forum to defray costs for an audience development project. This will allow the organization to better serve its community through increasing 

public visibility of its folk concerts, resident theater, 

jazz events and cultural festivals. Another Organizations grant, to the Lira Singers of Chicago, helped this 

twelve-woman choral group meet expenses for its artistic staff as well as promote the presentation of classical 

and contemporary Polish music. In addition to offering 

a full concert season with featured musicians and compositions, the ensemble performs in old inner-city, 

Polish neighborhoods where professional concerts 

are rare, 

The Services to the Field category supports projects 

that are regional and national in scope and that offer 

technical assistance and services to Expansion Arts constituents. The Institute of Alaska Native Arts in 

Fairbanks, whose programs preserve and promote indigenous traditional and contemporary genres, is supported under this category. Funding will support the 

Institute’s Information Center, which publishes the 

1993 Annual Report 41 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

quarterly Journal of Alaska Native Arw, its international 

circulation of 3,200 includes libraries, museums, artists 

and arts organizations. 

The Pilot Projects category has provided proving 

grounds for several Endowment initiatives, such as the 

CityArts Program, which anticipated the current Local 

Arts Agencies program, and the recently completed 

Community Foundation Initiative, which forged partnerships with private sector foundations in 27 states. FY 

’93 marked the second year of the pilot Arts Education 

Initiative, which is designed to provide arts appreciation 

and exposure for K through 12 students in weekend, 

after-school and summer programs. An extremely competitive category, the Pilot has supported many nationally significant projects. For example, Working Classroom 

in Albuquerque received funds to support its bilingual 

arts education and artist mentoring project. This project 

is targeted to benefit low-income youth and advocates 

arts education as a tool for literacy, cultural understanding, and personal growth.

The Rural Arts Initiative helps geographically and culturally isolated arts organizations become more stable 

through projects which Expansion Arts operates in partnership with the State & Regional Program. A 1993 

grant to the Montana Arts Council supported the third 

and final year of a project through which the Council 

regranted funds to five arts organizations. These included the Custer County Arts Center (Miles City), which 

serves a nine-county, largely agricultural community 

from unusual quarters in a renovated underground 

water-treatment facility. As of last year, some fifteen 

states had participated in the Rural Arts Initiative project and four more were included this year. 

The pilot Capstone Project, a new three-year initiative, 

addresses the problem of over-reliance by some nonprofit 

organizations on public sector funds. Only multi-disciplinary organizations over ten years old with budgets in excess of $300,000 were eligible to apply. Of 33 applicant 

organizations, six community-based organizations from 

throughout the country have been selected to participate.

1993 Annual Report 69 
 

devoted to broadening the scope of American artists’ 

experience in ways that will enrich the art they create. In addition, the program supports innovative international endeavors that increase arts audiences and deepen public understanding of the cultural influences from abroad that invigorate American society. Its activities help 

increase worldwide recognition of the excellence, diversity and vitality of 

the arts of the United States. Through all its work, the program 

helps American artists and arts organizations develop inter~~l~ 

national ties that strengthen the many art forms ~ 

ofvthe United States. ~ 

70 National Endowment for the Arts 
Through its partnerships as well as direct grants, the 

International Program provided funding for 185 projects 

in 1993. These involved artists and arts organizations in 

43 states and reached urban, rural and suburban communities throughout the country. With very little seed 

money, the fruits of the program’s activities touched the 

lives of artists and audiences in every part of the United 

States and around the world. 

Recognizing the great interest in expanded interchange 

with Canada, the program added Canada to its U.S.! 

Mexico Artists’ Residencies subcategory. In 1994 the 

three governments will begin accepting applications 

from artists for this landmark trinational program, U.S.! 

Canada/Mexico Creative Artists’ Residencies. Through
 

this partnership with our Mexican and Canadian colleagues, a total of 60 artists from the three countries will
 

be in residence abroad each year.
 

The U.S.lMexico program, model for the trinational 

venture, has enabled arts organizations in both countries 

to host a broad 

range of artists in 

two-month residencies. The 

artists participate 

in activities that 

.provide in-depth 

~nteraction with 

the host culture 

and allow them to create new work that draws inspiration from what they experience abroad. Integral to the 

residency experience are public activities such as master 

classes, workshops, in-school residencies, collaborations 

with civic organizations and lectureldemonstrations that 

take place in the host community. 

For example, ceramist Ann Agee left a Sheboygan, 

Wisconsin plumbing fixture factory for a residency in 

established in 1978, provide six-month fellowships in 

Japan for individual creative artists in any discipline to 

create new work and pursue artistic goals. A reciprocal 

arrangement allows Japanese artists to engage in similar 

activities in the United States. 

The International Projects Initiative (IPI) offers project
 

grants to U.S. cultural organizations to support sustained collaborations and exchange with arts organizations abroad. The projects have taken place in all
 

parts of the world and involve a broad range of
 

artistic disciplines. Many integrate arts education into international presentations; others increase recognition in this country
 

and abroad of the manifold richness of
 

America’s diverse cultural traditions;
 

others bring international presentations of the highest quality to underserved communities in the
 

United States.
 

For example, IPI enabled the 

Honolulu Academy of Arts 

in Hawaii to bring five Japanese artisans to their Japanese New Year exhibition 

and festival to demonstrate 

their crafts and work alongside Japanese-Hawaiian artisans of similar traditions. It 

also allowed the Tamarind 

Institute in Albuquerque, New 

Mexico to sponsor their master 

printer Jeffrey Sippel and renowned artist and educator 

Roberto Juarez to work with leading printmakers in India on collaborative lithographic techniques. 

Guanajuato, Mexico where she created a public mural of One of the Endowment’s great successes in hand-painted ceramic tiles. Ms. Agee worked in collabo­ the international arena has been its ability to at- ration with a renowned Mexican traditional ceramic artist 

and with local craftspeople. Also under this exchange, 

Mexican photographer Humberto Chavez was in residence at Alternative Worksite/Bemis Foundation, an 

artists’ community in Omaha. Through Bemis’ 

"Encounters Program," Mr. Chavez provided hands-on 

arts training in photography to junior high students in 

rural Red Oak, Nebraska. The Omaha Children’s 

Museum plans an August 1994 exhibition of the photract new funding sources as partners. (Given their 

importance in the International Program’s agenda, the 

fruits of all these partnership grants are listed below.) In 

1993, seven new funders joined forces with the 

International Program. ArtsLink, the newest partnership, 

involves the Open Society FundlSoros Centers for 

Contemporary Arts, The Trust for Mutual 

Understanding, The Starr Foundation and Citizen 

Exchange Council. It encourages artistic interchange tographs he and the children created during his residency.with the newly independent states of Central and The United States/Japan Creative Artists’ Fellowships, Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. ArtsLink 

1993 Annual Report 71 
 

offers two types of support: ArtsLink Collaborative 

Projects and ArtsLink Residencies. 

ArtsLink Collaborative Projects provide funding for U.S. 

artists to work on mutually beneficial projects with colleagues abroad. It enabled composer George 

Arasimowicz to create new works in collaboration with 

Polish composer Wlodzimierz Kotonski, and perform
 

them in the old town squares of Warsaw, Krakow and
 

Gdansk. ArtsLink Residencies supports U.S. arts organizations wishing to host a visiting artist or arts manager
 

for five-week residencies. It allowed The Madison (South 

Dakota) Area Arts Council to host Macedonian performing artist Iskra Dimitrova and Ukrainian arts manager 

Tatiana Tumasian so that they could participate in workshops and classes with area artists and students, as well as 

pursue their own projects. 

Through the Travel Grants Fund for Artists (TGF), another partnership with The Pew Charitable Trusts and 

Arts International, U.S. artists undertake international 

projects designed to enhance their creative development 

and professional growth, as well as to stimulate interaction with the host community. The fund supports artistic collaborations, creation of new work and exploration 

of a particular contemporary or traditional art form related to the artist’s work. TGF was established in 1992 to 

enable U.S. artists to work with colleagues abroad, with a 

special focus on Africa, Latin America, the Caribbean 

and Asian/Pacific countries. 

The Travel Grant Fund for Artists enabled the Esterhazy 

Quartet of Columbia, Missouri to send its members to 

Chile, Paraguay, Argentina and Venezuela, where they 

collaborated with South American composers interested 

in creating works for the quartet’s repertoire. 

The Fund for U.S. Artists at International Festivals and 

Exhibitions, the International Program’s oldest public/ 

private partnership, links the U.S. Information Agency, 

The Rockefeller Foundation, The Pew Charitable Trusts 

and the Endowment. This agency’s $235,000 contribuIndicates national impact.	 To support U.S. arts organizations collaborating 

with counterparts abroad 

to develop new work 

and/or to promote U.S. 

audience access to, and 

understanding of, littleknown art forms from 

abroad. 

tion to this $172-million fund made it possible for 

artists throughout the U.S. to participate in international festivals and exhibitions worldwide. Recipients of 

Fund support include well-known artists such as the 

Trisha Brown Company, Philip Glass, the Kronos 

Quartet, Twyla Tharp Dance Company, and the Miami 

City Ballet. The Fund imprimatur is invaluable to them 

in private sector fund-raising. 

Other artists of great merit who do not tour regularly received Fund support in 1993. These include the Capital 

Klezmers of North Potomac, Maryland; Ann Hankinson 

of Salt Lake City; the Solaris Quintet of Akron, Ohio; 

Stewed Mulligan of West Union, West Virginia; William 

Taylor of Bennington, Vermont, and Voices of Change 

from Dallas. 

Involvement in these prestigious international events 

creates employment for U.S. artists, increases their 

national and international recognition and contributes 

to their creative growth by exposing them to new artists, 

art forms and audiences. Artists report that they receive 

a wealth of insight and greater cultural understanding 

that inspires their own work as a result of interaction 

with colleagues from other parts of the world at international festivals. For example, Muntu Dance Theatre of 

Chicago reported that this was an important aspect of 

their participation in Ghana’s Panafest. Other artists tell 

us how Fund support generated other performance offers. For example, the Jose Limon Dance Company’s 

participation in the 1993 Brighton Festival led to engagements for them at Posthof in Linz, Austria and the 

famous Sadlers Wells Theater in London. 

In the visual arts in 1993, the Fund supported a prizewinning exhibition of the work of Louise Bourgeois at 

the prestigious Venice Biennale. It also provided funding 

for U.S. representation at the 1994 exhibition in Sao 

Paulo--a group show that includes the work of Freddy 

Rodriguez, Philemona Williamson, Jorge Tacla, 

Whitfield Lovell, Emilio Cruz, Jaune Quick-to-See 

Smith and Donald Locke.

1993Annual Report 83 
 ̄ 

The of all Americans are affected by language and literature; words are 

the vehicle for human thought and the currency of communication. The Ltature 

Program promotes the rich fabric of American culture thFugh direct grants to individual writers, through independent presses a d magazines that publish exceptional creative writing, through assistance for literary organizations l~at link writers with readers, 

and throU;h grants to develop audiences eager to hear the unique voices that compose 

contemporary literatuFin the United states. 

84 National Endowment for the Arts 
 

 

Almost half of the Literature Program’s annual budget 

goes to Fellowships for Creative Writers and Translation projects. Fellowships enable exceptionally talented, published writers of poetry and creative prose to set 

aside time for writing and research. They also assist expert literary translators to undertake specific projects, 

especially in languages insufficiently available in 

English. Over the years, literature fellowship recipients 

have won an impressive array of major awards including 22 Pulitzer Prizes, 19 MacArthur Fellowships and 

25 National Book Awards. 

This year the program received 2,370 eligible applications for creative writing fellowships and 61 applications for transla- ~ 

tion projects. Using a "blind" review 

process in which panelists did not know 

the identities of the applicants, the program recommended the award of $20,000 fellowships to 

89 writers: 47 in poetry, 37 in fiction, 5 in creative nonfiction. In addition, 10 literary translators each received 

$10,000 grants to translate into English works written in 

Burmese, Portuguese, Armenian, Spanish, Polish, French 

and Hungarian. 

Diana Der Hovanessian of Cambridge, Massachusetts, 

received a translation project grant to travel to war-torn 

Armenia to discover new writers and collect their works. 

The new work will serve as a sequel to her earlier Anthology of Armenian Poetry, which opened up Armenian writing to a new generation of American readers. 

The Literary Publishing grants category assists independent small presses and literary magazines in communities 

all across America to publish outstanding contemporary 

creative writing not available through commercial venues. Grants are also available for distribution projects 

that increase public access to contemporary creative writing of the highest caliber. This year more than $1 million (about one-quarter of the program’s 

budget) was awarded to 69 grantees. 

Reader’s International in Columbia, 

Louisiana received a grant to publish 

..... ~ contemporary world literature by authors from Poland, India and Vietnam 

.......... who have suffered political censorship or 

who write in exile. Other presses receiving grants include 

Milkweed Editions in Minneapolis and Tia Chucha in 

Chicago, publisher of multicultural writing of the mainland U.S., Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. Magazines 

funded include Bamboo Ridge Press in Honolulu, River 

Styx in St. Louis and Hanging Loose in Brooklyn, New 

York, which devotes part of each issue to work by high 

school writers. 

Arizona State University in Tempe was awarded $34,000 

to support Bilingual Review Press’s distribution of small

press books and literary magazines focusing on Hispanic 

creative literature. Founded in 1976, Bilingual Review 

Press is expanding its sales representation in urban markets, establishing a new in-store promotional campaign 

during Hispanic Heritage Month and sponsoring national tours for its authors. 

Audience Development grants help build audiences 

for contemporary creative writing by sponsoring readings, workshops and residencies by writers at schools, 

universities, community centers and other venues. This 

catagory also supports literary centers that bring together 

writers and readers in their communities, and offers 

grants to organizations that develop audiences through 

innovative projects, such as those employing the technologies of radio or computers to spread the written 

word. This year, 45 grants for $490,000 were awarded 

in Audience Development’s three subcategories. 

A grant of $5,490 to the Friends of the Library of 

Colorado Springs supported the First Annual Rocky 

Mountain Book Festival under the auspices of the 

Colorado Center for the Book, one of 28 such centers affiliated with the Library of Congress. The two-day festival attracted over 37,000 people in the Rocky Mountain 

region to its book fair, panel discussions and public readings by writers Barbara Kingsolver, Simon Ortiz and 

BeBe Moore Campbell. On the festival’s first day, 5,000 

local school children participated in a special program 

that included storytelling and costumed readings by "literary impersonators" ofWilla Cather, James Joyce and 

Emily Dickinson.

exchange of ideas among literary professionals and service organizations to promote conferences, workshops 

and book fairs; to establish archives, databanks and other 

information services for employment and publishing; to 

develop services for writers. 

A $70,000 grant to the Associated Writing Programs 

(AWP) supported the first segment of a three-phase 

program designed to develop creative writing programs 

at historically black colleges and universities (HBCU). 

As a result, six of these institutions will inaugurate 

programs that emphasize creative writing in the fall 

of 1994. 

The Special Projects category supports projects and 

initiatives of national significance designed to explore 

new models for the field. Unique examples include 

collaborative efforts with state arts agencies, literary 

service organizations, foundations, and other Endowment programs. 

The Literature Program and Arts in Education

The Arts on Radio category remains one of the most effective means of ensuring that the arts in all their variety 

are made available to the broadest possible audience. 

Through the rural radio initiative, small radio stations 

purchase from National Public Radio and American 

Public Radio such Endowment-supported series as 

"St. Paul Sunday Morning" (classical music), ’~kfropop 

Worldwide" (popular music of the African and Caribbean 

diaspora), "Soundprint" (the art of the radio documentary), "Crossroads" (a magazine drawn from America’s 

multi-ethnic communities), "Fresh Air with Terry Gross" 

(daily hour-long interviews with prominent and emerging 

artists), and "JazzSet with Branford Marsalis." 

This year saw the start of a powerful new radio series,
 

"Wade in the Water: African-American Sacred Music
 

Traditions," a 26-part series demonstrating how this
 

rich, complex musical tradition sustains and nurtures
 

the African-American community; and "Up Close and
 

Classical with David Zinman," a 26-week series of commentary and live performances featuring the Baltimore
 

Symphony Orchestra.
 

One of the Media Program’s long-standing priorities has 

been to maintain and extend a support system for artists 

throughout the country, thereby facilitating the production of art-works of excellence, which are then exhibited 

and broadcast. To this end, the program supported 83 

media arts organizations directly in 22 states, and 50 

media organizations indirectly in 25 states. Screenings 

throughout the national network of media arts centers 

draw an annual audience of some two million. Without 

these diverse exhibition programs, many third world films, 

foreign films and American independent films wotdd have 

no organized way of reaching the American public.

The Regional Fellowship program, administered by 

seven media arts centers, is a subgranting activity to support regional media artists. The emphasis is on developing talent wherever the arts of media are practiced. This 

program, initiated by the Endowment in 1981, is also 

supported by the American Film Institute, state arts 

agencies and private foundations, a model partnership. 

The national film/video production fellowship program 

continues to nurture works of distinction. At this year’s 

Sundance Film Festival, two Endowment-supported productions received awards of note. Children of Fate, by 

Andrew Young and Susan Todd, received the Grand Jury 

Prize for Best Documentary, and Leslie Harris’s Just 

Another Girl on the LR. T. received the Special Jury Prize 

for Best First Feature and then went on to a successful 

theatrical release. 

Production programs in film/video and radio provide
 

partial support for works in all genres Of media art: narrative, documentary, experimental and animation.
 

Investment in these categories proves each year to be~
 

uniquely rewarding. The range of subjects, the generational spread, the variety of approaches and aesthetics
 

each year create a vibrant, creative profile of these art
 

forms. Among this year’s grants were production support
 

for an experimental film by Trinh Minh-ha based on the
 

Vietnamese national love poem The Tale of Kieu, and to
 

Errol Morris for a nonfiction feature film about controlling nature and creating forms of artificial life.
 

And, for the third consecutive year, an Endowment-supported project won an Academy Award: Joan Gratz’s animated film Mona Lisa Descending A Staircase. Employing 

remarkable skills in the clay animation technique--50 

paintings by more than 30 artists were modelled by the 

filmmaker--Gratz virtually recapitulated the history of 

20th century painting in six dazzling minutes.

1993 Annual Report 109 
The Museum Program supports projects of artistic significance in the museum field. It 

awards grants to museums, organizations and museum professionals for activities that present art to the public and contribute to the understanding and appreciation of visual art through special exhibitions, educational programs, publications 

and programs devoted to the care and presentation 

of permanent collections. Awards are made to a *Includes $250,000 Committed in FY’92 

but not obligated until FY’93, and 

$275,000 committed but not obligated in broad range of institutions across the country, in­ F~93. 

cluding university museums and regional art centers. 
Art museums and related organizations play an active 

role in the civic and cultural life of the United States. 

The Endowment provides limited yet highly visible 

support to help museums exhibit art, preserve and care 

for art, and present information about art, in both traditional and novel ways to a range of audiences. This 

ongoing effort provides opportunities for art to be part 

of the life of all Americans. 

Exhibitions remain the principal way in which the 

American public comes face-to-face with works of art. 

Among the exhibitions funded this fiscal year were those 

of American artists Louise Bourgeois at the Brooklyn 

Museum, John Biggers at Houston’s Museum of Fine 

Arts, Richard Tuttle at the Indianapolis Museum of Art, 

and Jess at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo. 

The Museum Program also funded surveys including 

"The Age of Rubens" at the Museum of Fine Arts, 

Boston, "Shields of the American Indian’’ at the North 

Dakota Museum of Art in Grand Forks, and "RFD 

Alaska," Native American and Siberian Far East art and 

crafts, at the Alaska State Museum in Juneau. 

Through special exhibitions and other activities, 

museums offer a wide range of educational opportunities 

for their audiences. The Museum Program’s education 

grants help museums work with schools encouraging collaboration among museum staff, teachers and school administrators. The program also helps museums share information with the public through tours, lectures, written 

materials and videos. This year’s grants included one to 

the Columbia Museum of Art in South Carolina, for a 

training program for teachers that assists a statewide effort to integrate the visual arts into the public school curriculum. Another to the Plains Art Museum in Fargo supported a tour of the Museum’s mobile gallery to eight 

1993 Annual Report 111 
 

 

 

 

rural schools in North Dakota and Minnesota. The mobile gallery effectively introduces original art to underserved audiences in both states. A third grant to the 

Huntington Museum of Art supports "Pen and Palette," 

a program for middle-school students which utilizes the 

West Virginia museum’s collections as source material forlogue of the museum’s collection of Mexican folk art, 

creative writing. 

The Museum Program continues to support a wide range 

of internships in curatorial and conservation departments 

in an effort to help graduate students gain a foothold in 

museum careers. It has long been recognized that there is 

a lack of opportunity for members of minorities to enter 

the museum professions. In response, the program has 

stressed the importance of internships for minority students and funded, for example, minority internship programs at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York 

Spanish colonial art and pre-Columbian art. At the 

Frederic Remington Art Museum in Ogdensburg, New 

York, a grant will help publish a catalogue of the work of 

Frederic Remington in the collection. A grant to the 

Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, will help reinstall American decorative arts at its Bayou Bend collection in a way 

that will provide an interpretive survey of American 

craftsmanship, taste and customs. 

Enhancement of the physical environment of museum 

exhibition and storage spaces is essential to the long-term 

City, the Denver Art Museum and Buffalo Bill Historicalsafety and stability of collections in art museums. This 

Museum in Cody, Wyoming. 

The principal assets of museums are their permanent 

collections; public access to them is crucial to their mission. The Museum Program has long supported research and documentation of permanent collections and 

their presentation for the ultimate benefit of the general

1993 Annual Report 133 
The Music Program assists creative and performing musicians 

of exceptional talent; performing and presenting organizations 

of local, regional and national significance; and training and 

service organizations of regional and national importance, 

134 National Endowment for the Arts 
The nearly 700 grants awarded this 

year represent a rich variety of musical 

activities across the country by performing individuals and ensembles, by 

creative individuals such as composers, 

and by the institutions that train our 

future musicians and artists. Yet no list 

of distinguished models in the field begins to describe the far-reaching impact these remarkable projects and 

artists have had on so many people. 

A modest investment in Composers 

Fellowships is creating a significant body of new music 

in the solo instrumental and vocal, orchestral, choral, 

chamber and electronic music repertoires. The influx 

of influences in the past two decades, such as the rapidly coming together of world cultures and inexorable 

technology, would have been unthinkable for a Mozart 

In 1993, eighteen composers were 

awarded grants to create or complete 

new works. Among others, Long 

Zhou of New York City is composing 

for a quartet of Chinese instruments 

and Western orchestra; Charles N. 

Mason of Birmingham, Alabama, is 

writing one work for mixed chamber 

ensemble and tape, another for guitar 

and tape, and a third for clarinet and 

electronics; William Scott Wheeler of 

North Reading, Massachusetts, is 

writing a composition for chorus, 

soloists and orchestra based on various folk-poetic versions of the Celtic legend known as Tam Lin. 

Forty-seven other fellowships were awarded to jazz 

artists. Recognized by Congress as a national treasure, 

jazz is one of the nation’s priceless cultural exports. Jazz or Wagner. fellowships afford professional performers and composers the time to create new works and perform. They Today, compositional styles are evolving, some taking on also allow emerging performers and composers to study coloristic attributes of rock, jazz, Middle Eastern or with recognized professional artists-teacher~. Individuals Asian musics. Others are experiments with electronics to also have the opportunity to develop special projects that create personal musical expressions. Much of what is benefit the jazz field and have national or regional signif­ being created is thus entirely original rather than a adap­ icance. For example, Andrew N. White III of Washing­ tive experience. ton, D.C. is transcribing solos of John Coltrane and 

1993 Annual Report 135 
preparing text on the distinctiveness of the "Coltrane 

style" with the support of a Jazz Fellowships Special 

Projects grant. 

The Music Program continues to honor jazz luminaries 

for their enduring contributions to the evolution of 

jazz in this country. The 1993 American Jazz Masters 

Fellowships were awarded to singer Joe Williams, bassist 

Milt Hinton and singer/lyricist Jon Hendricks. 

While jazz has done much to bridge our cultural and
 

ethnic differences, other musical genres find increasing
 

resonance in culturally diverse programming. A Special
 

Projects grant to the Children’s Festival Chorus of
 

Pittsburgh supports the music component of a half-


hour television production of the work W~ Return 

Thanks by American composer Scott Cohen. The commissioned work features adaptations of Seneca and 

Iroquois prayers and poetry, and portrays a harvest 

theme from the perspective of Native Americans. Under 

the Chamber/Jazz Ensembles category, Relache, Inc. of 

Philadelphia will present concerts with collaborating organizations in six regions of the country to increase 

awareness of contemporary music. Relache is working 

with local Latino, Asian and Jewish musicians to involve 

newly arrived immigrants in the music culture of the 

United States. 

Vibrant work is being accomplished by music presenters. 

A grant to Alaska’s Juneau Jazz & Classics will support a 

festival that includes concerts of chamber and new 

music, jazz and solo recitalists. In addition to regularly 

scheduled concerts, the festival is performing aboard the 

Alaska Marine Highway, ferrying concertgoers between 

Juneau and two neighboring Native villages. [Inasmuch 

as 1993 is the final year of support under the Music 

Program, these organizations will be assisted in the 

future through the Presenting & Commissioning 

Program. Music Festivals that primarily are producers 

rather than presenters will continue to receive Music 

Program support.] 

Under the Music Professional Training category, 37 independent conservatories, music schools and departments of music receive assistance. Many of these establishments have become internationally known for 

advanced musical studies. Programs such as those offered 

in the summer at The Yellow Barn in Putney, Vermont; 

Snowbird Institute in Snowbird, Utah; and the Eastern 

Music Festival in Greensboro, North Carolina, encourage talented youth to develop as complete musicians. 

In alarming numbers, public schools have discontinued 

music programs, including band, orchestra and choral 

activities. While the Arts Endowment and the arts community cannot solve this crisis overnight, many of the 

grants awarded in 1993 demonstrate the music community’s awareness and commitment to taking a more active 

role in the creation and continuation of music education 

programs across the country. 

More than 40 percent of the grants under the Orchestra 

category have educational components. For example, the 

North Carolina Symphony received support for educational concerts and performances of new American 

music. This education program is the hallmark of the 

Symphony, which performs more than 65 concerts 

across the state to nearly 100,000 school children each 

year. These events play an integral role in the music curriculum in public schools as they include materials for
 

the classroom and provide teacher workshops.
 

In Indiana, the Fort Wayne Philharmonic’s program uses a 

string quartet and percussionist to act out in skit format 

the negative effects of drugs, showing how they can affect 

performance and attitude. Additionally, the ensembles perform 450 demonstration concerts in Indiana public
 

schools. Under the Jazz Ensembles category, Rebirth, Inc.
 

of Detroit is presenting workshops and a concert by the
 

Wendell Harrison Clarinet Ensemble. Workshop participants include middle and high school students from 

African-American and Hispanic communities throughout 

Detroit. Under the Chorus category, San Francisco 

Chantideer is developing a music education program 

which, in addition to mini-concerts and multi-day residencies with students in grades K-12, involves master classes 

and the polSular "Singing-in-the-Schools" workshops. 

Now in its second year, the Chamber Music Rural 

Residencies pilot places emerging chamber music ensembles in rural communities for a full academic year. In 

each of three states--Georgia, Iowa and Kansas--three 

ensembles work in towns within easy driving distance of 

one another, enabling the musicians to work together or 

separately, to teach children and adults in areas where 

music teachers are scarce, and to perform in a variety of 

formal and informal settings. In March 1993,"CBS 

Sunday Morning" featured the Ying Quartet’s residency 

in Jesup, Iowa, and in May Peter Jennings’ "World News 

Tonight" closed with a piece on the Georgia residencies. 

Large sales are not expected for recordings such as that of 

Wyoming pianist Helen Walker-Hill, playing the music

Undine Smith Moore, Margaret Bonds and Valerie

current American musical activity. Each tangible product of a Music Recording category grant exposes more

Application Review (BAR) 

grantee. Some applications 

in three categories--Music 

Professional Training, 

Choruses and Orchestras-­

are reviewed on an everyother-year basis. Grants in 

effect cover two years unless 

significant change occurs. 

Thus, when a BAR grantee 

reapplies for a second year, 

its application is reviewed by 

the Council and Chairman 

(not by a panel); if approved, the application is 

funded at an amount based 

on the previous year’s grant 

and adjusted by a fixed factor. A form of multi-year 

grant-making approved by 

the National Council and 

Chairman, BAR has proven 

to be an efficient funding 

method.

schools. Intended to supplement the existing vocal music 

curriculum, Artists-in-Training offers qualified students 

individual instruction, positive role models and encouragement to pursue further study and possible careers in 

opera-musical theater. 

In Wisconsin this year an award of $5,000 went to the 

Madison Civic Music Association to support the Madison 

Opera’s 1993-94 production season, which saw the world 

premiere of Shining Brow. Based on the life of the architect Frank Lloyd Wright, the production attracted a 

record audience of nearly 7,000 and proved that a small 

opera company can achieve critical and financial success
 

with new American works.
 

The Madison Opera’s outreach efforts this year included the highly successful Ambassadors program, which 

involves representatives of some 40 rural communities 

within 60 miles of Madison. The program has increased 

access to opera in the region by challenging some preconceptions that people have regarding opera per se. 

The Minneapolis Opera received $7,500 to support a 

tour of Mozart’s Don Giovanni. Composer Evan Chen 

was commissioned to prepare the arrangement of 

Mozart’s score for a sophisticated array of five electronic

30,000 people to 33 performances and 45 residency activities in eleven states. 

Another grantee was the National Opera Association, 

a service organization for teachers, singers, directors, 

composers and academic institutions engaged in professional opera training. Through its chamber opera, vocal 

and opera production competitions, it has raised the 

artistic level in college opera activities, which involve 

music departments and other specialties. NOA’s activities influence opera pedagogy as well as future opera audiences of diverse ethnic and social backgrounds
 

around the nation.
 

Meet the Composer, Inc. received $20,000 for its 

New Residencies Program. Companies apply to New 

Residencies in partnership with a second arts organization and a civic group, e.g. community center, school, 

church, radio station or benevolent society, that can put a 

composer in touch with the community. This year David 

Felder was chosen to work with the Greater Buffalo 

Opera Company, the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra 

and WBFO-FM. It is hoped that Mr. Felder’s integrated 

use of video and electronic media in his composition 

may lead the company to new kinds of expression.

1993 Annual Report 179 
This program encourages creation and presentation of the performing arts 

in two ways. It supports presenting organizations that offer performing arts 

events to broad audiences, and it assists the development of projects by 

artists who work in interdisciplinary or experimental formats. The program 

also provides funding for artists’ communities that offer resources and 

space for professional artists to develop their work free from distractions. 
FY ’93 grantees offered a diverse range of performing 

arts activity -- over 8,000 performances to more than 5 

million people throughout the nation. For example, an 

award to the Taos Art Association in New Mexico supported "Collaborations," a project that linked arts events 

with community activities. Under this umbrella, the 

Dayton Contemporary Dance Company performed in 

cooperation with a consortium of presenters throughout 

New Mexico and the Taos public schools. Also, an interdisciplinary performing arts project designed by playwright David Nichols was developed in collaboration 

with musicians, actors, choreographers, dancers, storytellers and farmers from the community. The Art Association also sponsors "ProjecTaos," a bilingual performing arts camp for over 200 children that offers classes in 

music, visual arts, drama, body movement, all taught by 

Taos artists alongside visiting professionals. 

Recently arts presenters have made arts education a particular emphasis. The Painted Bride Art Center’s work 

with the Meredith School is a model of involvement 

with community. Located in South Philadelphia where 

it draws students from throughout the city, Meredith 

~

Elementary 

has been "adopted" by 

Painted Bride, a contemporary art 

center/presenter that has had tremendous success 

in bringing together children, parents, teachers and 

older adults. 

In some regions, Endowment grantees provide the only 

professional arts performances. Alabama’s Selma and 

Dallas County Council on the Arts operates in the heart 

of the Black Belt (whose name alludes to the dark soil of 

this farming region). The area has a per capita income of 

$6,834; nearly half of Dallas County’s children live in 

poverty. In the face of such massive need, the Council 

focuses on programming that will build community togetherness, pride and self-reliance. With Presenting & 

Commissioning support, community members and 

guest artists are collaborating to create performances reflecting the unique history and culture of the community. Similarly, in Fallon, Nevada a grant was awarded to 

the Churchill Arts Council, the only organization in the 

region that presents performances in various disciplines 

1993 Annual Report 181 
from outside the community on an ongoing basis. Artist 

residencies sponsored by the Council directly involve 

local arts groups and people from a small Indian reservation, a Naval Air Station, and a community college. 

Yet another grant supported the Kodiak Arts Council in 

Alaska. This grant enabled the Council to work with the 

Anchorage and Fairbanks Concert Associations to present 

a two-week residency by the AMAN Folk Ensemble from 

Los Angeles. The residency targeted the Alaska Native, 

Filipino and Latino communities on Kodiak Island and 

included a range of educational activities including classroom instruction, community activities with local performers, and the development of written curricula, as 

well as community and school performances. 

The program’s Rural/Inner City Arts Presenting Regrant 

Initiative provides funding (often in cooperation with a 

local foundation or corporation) to organizations who 

subgrant to community presenting efforts. An award of 

$1,500 will help the County School District support the 

Missoula (Montana) Children’s Theatre for a one-week 

residency to work with elementary students from these 

13 schools. 

This year $20,000 was awarded to South Dakotans for 

the Arts to support the Rural Arts Presenting Program 

(RAPP), a regrant program designed to support presenting activity in small rural communities and Indian 

reservations. During the first year of this initiative, 

awards went to 15 communities of less than 10,000 

people--one, Castlewood, has a population of 549. 

Of the 15 communities funded, nine had never received any arts funding and have no existing arts delivery systems, Meade County, one of the nation’s largest 

counties at approximately 1,700 square miles, has 13 

rural schools, several of them one-room school houses. 

Many students cannot experience the benefits of dance, 

drama and other performing arts because of the great distances between population bases scattered across the vast 

prairie ranges. Isolated areas like Meade County need to 

present artists who will introduce children to performing 

arts. Through this unique public/private partnership initiative, South Dakotans for the Arts received a matching 

grant for this project from the Bush Foundation. 

Providing support for the creation of new work is the 

focus of the program’s commissioning area. This year’s 

grants in the commissioning categories assisted over 

1,000 artists in more than 40 states. (Note too that 

artists and presenting organizations often collaborate on 

developing new work; this encourages partnerships between notable artists and the cultural resources based in 

a local community.) The program also supports artists’ 

communities that provide fellowships, resources and 

creative time for professional artists. The work developed at these communities provides new resources for 

arts presenters. 

An Interdisciplinary Projects award supported "The 

Human Bridge," a new performance work by Oakland’s 

AXIS Dance Troupe, a company whose choreography 

integrates performers in wheelchairs with able-bodied 

counterparts. The piece, designed to abet disabled 

Americans’ integration into the larger society, was a collaboration by AXIS, performance artist Neil Marcus, 

composer Susan Alexander and multimedia artist 

Brenda Prager. 

The Program’s Artists’ Projects Regional Initiative provides another example of public/private partnerships. 

In conjunction with the Rockefeller and Andy Warhol 

Foundations, this initiative supports new artistic work 

through regranting sites. Data received in FY ’93 show 

that nationwide this category supported 173 projects 

in response to over 1,800 applications the previous 

year. Subgrants were distributed to artists in 42 states, 

the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. For instance; an award to the Contemporary Arts Center in 

New Orleans was matched with funds from the 

Rockefeller and Andy Warhol Foundations. The grant 

made project fellowships available to artists in Arkansas, Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi. In one project, artists worked with a group of young people from 

a community in Louisiana to transform an existing traditional flame house. They turned it into a non-traditional sculpted structure that will serve as an ongoing 

working studio and exhibition space for children’s art 

works as well as for the creation of an exhibit and installation by members of the Koasati, a Native American tribe. They will utilize audio, natural elements 

used by the Koasati, slides, and fans to recreate the experience of a tribal dance. 

Also this year, Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions 

(LACE) received an award of $19,330, matched by the 

Rockefeller and Warhol Foundations, to support a regrant program for artists in Southern California and 

Hawaii. A grant through this program supported artist 

Pat Taylor of Los Angeles in a collaboration with jazz 

dancers and musicians based on the collage style and images of the late African American artist Romare Beardon 

and the musical and literary influences of the Harlem 

182 National Endowment for the Arts 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Renaissance. The project will involve original music and 

choreography and will be developed into a thirty-minute 

concert piece. 

Finally, through the Artists’ Communities area, the 

Headlands Center for the Arts in Sausalito, California 

received support for its Residency Program. This internationally-known program invites as many as 30 eminent artists from all disciplines, and from a variety of 

aesthetic, cultural and ethnic backgrounds to pursue 

their work within the context of the Marin Headlands, 

Indicates national impact. 

Grants are awarded in two 

subcategories: Grants to 

Presenting Organizations 

are designed to improve 

the ability of professional 

organizations to present 

diverse arts programming 

for audiences in their communities and provide significant performance opportunities for artists 

presented throughout the 

nation. Services to Presenting Organizations 

grants assist exemplary 

projects of national service 

organizations and regional 

or national consortia of 

presenting organizations 

that help presenters improve their ability to present high quality performing arts programming.

The Residency Program supports the Center’s goal of 

extending artists’ roles into a broader context. It provides artists and professionals from many disciplines 

with time and space for open-ended research and the 

generation of new ideas; it offers opportunities for interaction and collaboration between artists; and it provides 

opportunities for informal presentations of works in 

progress to the public.

1993 Annual Report 195 
Serving audiences and artists nationwide, 

the Theater Program encourages the advancement and excellence of theater arts. 

Supporting performances of quality and 

distinction, the program assists professional theater companies by providing 

aid for innovative single projects and for 

entire production seasons. It also supports individual artists including playwrights, designers and performers. 

Finally, the program assists service 

organizations that provide support in such 

essentials as publications, 

conservatory training and 

management resources. 

This year priority was given to providing seasonal support grants to artists working in a company structure; 

and to supporting individual artists through fellowships. 

This program remains one of the last sources for unrestricted seasonal grants in the nation. Also, fewer sources 

provide direct support to artists. 

Grants were awarded to 231 theater companies through 

the program’s largest category, support to Professional 

Theater Companies. The companies funded represent an 

amazing, explosive growth in theater around the nation. 

They also represent great diversity in both aesthetic and 

geographic terms as well as in age. They perform the classics, mount adaptations, create new work and are movement based; they are grounded in rural communities and 

rooted in urban neighborhoods. However, they all have 

in common a commitment to their communities and to 

an uncompromising standard of artistic excellence. 

The San Francisco Mime Troupe is one example of an 

older first-generation theater company. Founded in 

1959, the company’s body of work spans almost 35 

years. Grounded in an aesthetic ofcommedia dell’arte, 

physical theater and clowning; using original text, music 

and lyrics, the Mime Troupe has been recognized around 

the world as a master of political theater. After receiving 

a Tony Award for best regional theater in 1988, the 

Mime Troupe won Obie Awards for The Dragon Lady’s 

Revenge and Seeing Double. Critical acclaim over the
 

years has helped the company to build loyal audiences
 

wherever it plays. Fans in the San Francisco Bay area look for the Mime
 

Troupe to signal the start of summer with its tradition of performing free shows in public parks. 

The company’s core fans 

have grown up with 

the Mime 

196 National Endowment for the Arts 
Troupe, and now bring their children to the shows. The audience
 

grows as the Troupe’s touring schedule brings its work to communities
 

like Manhattan, Kansas and Bradley
 

University in Peoria, Illinois; to the
 

University of South Florida in Tampa, and to the city of Tucson, Arizona. The company’s production of
 

Off Share, which was assisted by the
 

Theater Program, premiered on
 

July 4, 1993 to kick offthe summer 

season; it will travel through Asia on an eight-week tour 

in 1994. 

Pregones Theater Company, based in New York City’s 

South Bronx for fifteen years, is a relatively young company. Pregones received Mayor Dinkins’ Award of 

Honor for Arts and Culture for outstanding achievement 

in the arts in recognition of its artistry, commitment, 

leadership, and for the service it provides as an artistic 

and cultural resource in its community. 

Pregones centers its dramaturgy in the poems, stories, 

novels and plays of Puerto Rican writers. Adaptations 

are written by the artistic leaders of the company and 

always use Latin music rooted in Puerto Rican traditions. Pregones produced significant work like Silent 

Dancing by Judith Ortiz Corer and The Night We 

Became Peaple Again by Jose Luis Gonzalez. In July of 

1993, Pregones hosted Teatro Festivale, an international theater festival that highlighted companies 

from Mexico, Puerto Rico, 

Peru, San Antonio, 

Texas, Los 

Angeles, Denver and New York. 

Additionally, Pregones tours throughout the Northeast and recently has 

toured the Midwest as well. 

The Alabama Shakespeare Festival, 

located in Montgomery, is an example of a company that performs both 

contemporary and classical work. It 

has become known, however, for its 

commitment to the classics. It is the 

artistic director’s ambition to have 

his company perform William Shakespeare’s history 

cycle in the next five years, presenting the bard’s eight 

plays about the kings in their historical sequence. A second goal for the company is to complete production of 

the entire Shakespeare canon by the year 2000. The 

company has also embarked upon a project to develop 

the voice of southern playwrights, and tell stories unique 

to people in the south. The Southern Writers Project was 

created for this purpose, enabling the company to work 

with five southern writers over a three-year period. 

Imago, the Theater Mask Ensemble, based in Portland, 

Oregon, is a movement/mask company that has fused 

several art forms to create a repertoire of mime, dance 

and acrobatics--performance art that one critic described as "live animation." Formed in 1979, the company has toured 47 states in this nation, Europe and 

Asia. This year, Theater Program 

support helped Imago anchor 

itself in Portland when the 

company purchased a 

building to use as a theater and visual arts cen1993 Annual Report 197 
 

 

 

 

 

 

ter. With the recent premiere of Verdad, inspired by the 

Gabriel Garcia Marquez short story, the company is 

now incorporating elements of film--in miniature, animation and time lapse photography--into its work. 

The Theater Program continued to invest in the development of individual artists through the Support to 

Individuals: Fellowships for Playwrights category. Two 

playwrights who received Playwrights Fellowships last 

year are models in their field. Jo Carson, a playwright 

who works in her native Tennessee, has written a number of plays including Bear Facts, Little Chicago and 

Preacher with a Hone to Ride. Often produced in collaboration with the rural touring Road Company, Carson 

won the Kesselering Award for her play, Daytrips, the 

story of caring for her mother, a victim of Alzheimers’s 

disease. A collection of her monologues and dialogues, 

Stories IAin’t Tald Yet, has been published by Orchard 

Books and the Theater Communications Group.

Cherrie Moraga-Lawrence is a playwright whose use 

of language incorporates English, Spanish and Calo 

(Chicano colloquialisms) into a unique voice that 

springs from her Chicana/Latina heritage. Her early 

plays, Shadow of a Man and Heraes and Saints, reflect 

her experience, as does her new work, Mexican Medea, 

a play based in rural Mexican Texas. 

In addition to its support for playwrights, the Theater 

Program through a cooperative agreement with the 

Theater Communications Group funded Stage Designer 

Fellows in its Support to Individuals category. The program continued its Artistic Advancement: Special Projects/Organizations and Special Projects/Individual 

Theater Artists Collaborations categories this year. It also 

maintained its commitment to supporting its National 

Resources categories of Professional Theater Training
 

and Services to the Field.

1993 Annual Report 209 
The Visual Arts Program funds the creation of new work 

by American artists of proven talent and supports the 

presentation of contemporary art to wider audiences. 

The program focuses on nurturing excellence in the visual arts through fellowships to individuals and through 

grants awarded to organizations for exemplary activities. 

These awards are investments in artistic experimentation 

and in the creation of new art forms by gifted artists 

working in a wide spectrum of styles and media. In addition, the program provides opportunities for the public 

to see new works of art and to encounter the ideas of 

contemporary artists. 

Our first priority is the Visual Artists Fellowships category, vehicle for more than 5,000 awards since its inception in 1967. These fellowships, awarded to professional 

artists of exceptional talent and demonstrated ability, 

support these individuals’ creative development by providing the financial means to pursue their work. This 

year the program received 4,526 applications from across 

the country, and awarded 110 fellowships of $20,000 to 

artists in every geographic region. The fellowships were 

awarded in painting, works on paper and other genres 

(Fellowships are awarded in this repeating two-year 

cycle: in even-numbered years to sculptors, photographers and crafts artists; in odd-numbered years to 

painters, printmakers, drawing artists, conceptual artists 

and visual artists working in video and performance.) 

Regional Fellowships complement the national program. 

In 1993, five regional organizations received grants of 

$50,000 each to amend existing cooperative agreements 

and offer as many as 30 fellowships of $5,000 each to 

artists in painting and works on paper. The Western 

States Arts Federation (WESTAF) received $55,000 to 

amend an existing cooperative agreement and award up 

to 25 fellowships to artists in painting and works on 

paper and to award five additional grants to artists working in other genres. 

Application deadlines for the regional fellowships alternate with those at the national level, enabling artists to 

apply for grants on an annual basis regardless of where 

they live and work. Endowment funds earmarked for regional fellowships are matched one-to-one by each region and are often accompanied by exhibitions. 

Visual artists organizations (VAOs) exhibit new works by 

contemporary American artists, offer them access to 

working facilities, provide equipment for the creation of 

new work, provide a range of artists’ services, and produce publications on contemporary art. These alterna210 National Endowment for the Arts 
tives to museums and commercial galleries were funded 

in 28 major jurisdictions. They can be found in major 

cities such as Washington, D.C. and in mid- and smallsized communities such as Chico, California; Galveston, 

Texas; Grand Rapids, Michigan; Lafayette, Louisiana; 

and Springfield, Massachusetts. Characteristically, these 

organizations were founded and are run by artists with 

strong support from their communities. 

In many cities, VAOs exist as the primary showcase for 

contemporary art. Besides exhibiting current work by 

local artists, many arrange shows with organizations 

from other regions thereby exposing audiences to new 

work from elsewhere. Particularly in crafts, photography, 

video and printmaking, VAOs provide artists with access 

to equipment that is prohibitively expensive for individuals to own. Many organizations also conduct educao 

tional outreach programs with local schools. 

Grants for periodicals were reviewed for the first time 

under the Visual Artists Organizations category (instead of the old Visual Artists Forums category). Thirty 

organizations received support for their publications 

including the Foundation for Advanced Critical Studies 

for Art Issues, the Women’s Studio Workshop for The 

Binnewater Tides, and Forecast for Public Art Review. 

Some 143 different visual artists organizations received 

grants ranging from $5,000 to $50,000. The largest 

grant was awarded to the Visual Studies Workshop in 

Rochester, New York, to support artists’ exhibitions and 

workshops, as well as its monthly journal, Afterimage. 

The Visual Artists Public Projects category was created 

by merging the Art in Public Places and Visual Artists 

Forums categories. Grants in this new category are designed to make exceptional contemporary art accessible 

in public places and to increase opportunities for living 

American artists of exceptional talent and achievement. 

Awards support projects of national or regional significance that offer opportunities for visual artists to create 

and present new work in a context that stimulates public 

discussion about contemporary art or enhances public 

appreciation of it. Works may be permanent or temporary installations in a variety of visual arts media. 

Support is also available for artists-in-residence programs 

and for projects that promote informative dialogue on 

contemporary visual art through visiting artists programs, symposia and conferences. 

Visual Artists Public Projects grants supported efforts 

in a wide range of communities and sites this year.

1993 Annual Report 223 
cHALLENGE
 

Challenge grants provide special opportunities for arts organizations to strengthen long-term institutional capacity 

and to enhance artistic quality and diversity. The Challenge Program offers two forms of support: Institutional 

Stabilization support helps arts institutions reach longterm financial objectives; Project Implementation support 

stimulates new arts programs that strengthen and sustain 

excellence in the arts, improve access to the arts, or deepen 

and broaden appreciation of the arts. 

Challenge Grant applications are subject to a special review protocol that first involves panels in the respective 

Endowment arts discipline programs, then a special review committee. Only then do recommended applications go to the National Council. Grants range in size 

from $75,000 to $1 million, and each dollar must be 

matched with at least three dollars in nonfederal funds. 

This year’s largest Challenge Grant was awarded to 

Atlanta Arts Alliance’s Robert W. WoodruffArts Center. 

224 National Endowment for the Arts 
The $1 million grant will aid the Center’s effort to increase the Alliance Theatre’s endowment and cash reserve 

funds and help reduce its deficit. Grants of $75,000 will 

help the Bay Area Womens Phllharmomc in San Fran­ ’  ̄  ̄

cisco commission work by women composers; broaden 

the financial base for the Springfield (Massachusetts) Symphony; provide financial security for literary publications 

of Milkweed Editions in Minneapolis; and augment the 

Cleveland Music School Settlement’s endowment to provide financial aid for music and dance instruction. 

This year sums totaling $14.5 million in Challenge 

funds went to 60 arts organizations. The new Challenge 

campaigns will help fund a variety of efforts and special 

artistic projects such as the Wheeling Symphony’s plan 

to expand its concert program across West Virginia; an 

initiative by Philadelphia’s American Musical Theater 

Festival to create, produce and market new music theater 

works to attract younger and more ethnically diverse audiences; and the "Learning to Read Through the Arts 

Program" for New York City public schools. 

Over $27.5 million in Challenge Grant and matching 

of cash reserves and endowment funds. Four grants 

were awarded for arts facilities: to expand and renovate 

the San Diego Museum of Contemporary Art; to purchase equipment by the American Conservatory Theater 

Foundation for the Geary Theater in San Francisco after 

the 1989 earthquake; to remodel Hancher Auditorium 

which opened as the performing arts center of the University of Iowa in 1972; and to renovate and preserve the 

MacDowell Colony’s 40 historic buildings in Peterborough, New Hampshire. 

Other grants reflect the great diversity of ideas and plans 

developed by arts organizations in different parts of the 

country. Some examples: 

In Newark, New Jersey, the Carter G. Woodson 

Foundation will expand performance venues for AfricanAmerican theater, dance, music and literary artists 

through its Black Culture on Tour in America program. 

In Winston-Salem, the North Carolina School of the 

Arts will create a school of filmmaking. 

In Santa Monica, the Cornerstone Theater Company 

will produce three theater pieces that incorporate 

elements of California’s diverse communities. Throughout these productions, community participants work 

side-by-side with members of Cornerstone’s pro- funds will be used to create long-term capital in the formfessional ensemble.

To support the Big Apple 

Circus’ campaign to establish endowment and cash reserve funds, and to purchase 

and replace critical equipment. Since 1977 the Big 

Apple Circus’ mission has 

been to present the art of the 

classical one-ring circus. 

Each year the artistic team 

creates a new production
 

built around a specific
 

theme, incorporating all aspects of traditional theater
 

and classical circus. In addition to performing under
 

the Big Top, the Circus 

reaches out to special audiences though its community 

programs--the clown care 

unit, circus arts in education 

programs, and a ticket fund 

which provides free tickets 

to disadvantaged children 

and adults. The Circus must 

establish an endowment to 

provide long-term support 

for artistic initiatives, and 

for the ongoing maintenance 

of vehicles that carry the 

Circus each year on tour. 

The Circus wants to further 

stabilize its operations by establishing a cash reserve. 

The Circus must also replace 

and upgrade its existing 

equipment which is rapidly 

deteriorating, including two 

performance tents, a reception tent, generator and air 

conditioning.

To augment the Saint Louis

Challenge and matching 

funds will be dedicated to a 

conservation endowment 

fund as an integral element 

of a larger endowment campaign. Creating an endowment specifically for conservation will assure that the 

demands of the Museum’s 

earthquake mitigation program, which has stretched 

present conservation department resources, do not detract from other key conservation programs. Based on 

the model of London’s 

Victoria and Albert Museum, the Saint Louis Art 

Museum was established in 

1879 as the first art museum 

west of the Mississippi 

River. The Museum’s comprehensive collection is 

noted for its strong holdings 

of American fine and decorative art, 19th-century 

French paintings, and Asian 

art, as well as its large number of paintings by Max 

Beckmann. In addition, the 

Museum maintains active 

education programs which 

reach a variety of audiences. 

In 1990 the Museum 

charged the conservation department with a new priority of designing and implementing an earthquake 

mitigation program for each 

of the more than 30,000 objects in the collections. The 

Challenge Grant will become part of this conservation effort. [93-4624-0004]

Spanish Theatre Repertory 

Co., Ltd. 

New York, NY $175,000 

To support the campaign of 

the Spanish Theatre Repertory Company (Repertorio 

Espanol) to augment its endowment. Though well-established, the Company sees 

itself as being financially vulnerable due to a variety of 

factors, including declining 

government funding, shifting 

corporate and foundation 

contribution priorities, and 

continued limited access to 

individual support. Repertorio Espanol was founded in 

1968 to introduce the best of 

Latin-American, Spanish and 

Hispanic-American theater in 

rotating repertory; to create a 

professional company to perform in the Spanish language; to bring this theater to 

a broad audience in New 

York and across the country; 

and to serve as a catalyst for 

cultural interchange between 

Spanish and English speaking 

Americans. The existence of 

an endowment fund will help 

to ensure the future financial 

stability of the Company 

which will, in turn, enhance 

its ability to take artistic risks.

employs 80 professional musicians. The Orchestra’s services have expanded from

Vermont Folklife Center 

Middlebury, VT $280,000 

To support the Vermont 

Folklife Center’s campaign to 

establish a cash reserve fund. 

The fund will be used to supplement salaries, to add a 

part-time marketing position, 

to establish a revolving fund 

for program development, to 

diversify its touring program, 

to complete computer cataloging of the collection, and 

to begin acquisitions of contemporary Vermont folk art. 

In the mid-1980’s the 

Vermont Folklife Center 

evolved from a state folk arts 

coordinator program of the 

Vermont Council on the Arts 

to become an independent 

traditional arts organization 

dedicated to collecting, preserving, and presenting the 

traditional arts of Vermont. 

Through exhibits, media productions, publications, and 

school programs, the Center 

takes its outreach and educational programs on regional 

traditional arts and culture to 

audiences throughout the 

1993 Annual Report 233 
 

 

 

 

state and region. Such projects are made possible largely 

because of important collections and research documents 

cared for in the Vermont 

Folklife Center archives. The 

Center plans to launch a 

major fundraising campaign 

to coincide with its 10th anniversary and will use the 

Challenge Grant as a stimulus for gifts to the cash reserve. [93-4624-0015] 

Vivian Beaumont Theater 

at Lincoln Center 

New York, NY $235,000* 

To support Vivian 

Beaumont Theater’s campaign to increase its cash reserve. The Vivian Beaumont 

Theater has presented over 

5,200 performances of 40 

plays and musicals, seen by 

more than 3.5 million people. Ongoing activities include a recently established 

new play workshop and 

reading series, an education 

program operating in cooperation with the New York 

City public schools, and the 

playwrights program, 

signed to give voice to a new 

generation of talent by providing opportunities to those 

writers who reflect the ethnic diversity of New York 

City. Since 1985 financial 

resources were directed toward necessary improvements to the Beaumont 

complex, where productions 

are staged, and to maintaining affordable ticket prices 

to a broad-based audience. 

The Theater now needs to 

solidify its financial foundation, and a Challenge Grant 

for cash reserve funds will be 

a major part of this effort.

West Shore Symphony 

Orchestra 

Muskegon, MI $75,000* 

To augment the West Shore 

Symphony Orchestra’s endowment. West Shore 

Symphony is anticipating 

the erosion of traditional 

sources of funds at a time

augmented to provide required additional income. 

The West Shore Symphony 

Orchestra was established in 

1938 when a group of 40 

members presented its first 

concert. The Orchestra performs an eight-pair subscription series which includes 

both classical and pops concerts and reaches an audience of over 2,400 per concert pair, a music-and-arts 

series, and run-out orchestra

Nutcracker, four young people’s concerts, three free 

summer concerts, second

concerts and a docent program which reaches 6,000 

elementary students annually, the Orchestra is establishing a program to take ensembles into the schools. 

The Challenge Grant will be

1993 Annual Report 239 
The Advancement Program helps small and emerging 

arts organizations of the highest caliber improve their 

managerial performance and financial stabiliW. Since 

1983, the program has made an invaluable investment 

in America’s cultural future by helping more than 400 

organizations from Alaska to the Virgin Islands. These 

emerging groups are important as sources of new creative 

directions, as training grounds for artists, and in some 

instances as foundations from which new institutions may 

grow. Survival and stabilization are perennial challenges 

for small nonprofit arts organizations. For a decade, the 

program has helped such groups develop solid structures 

in order to pursue their artistic visions. 

240 National Endowment for the Arts 

The organizations receiving Advancement assistance range 

across a broad spectrum of institution types and levels of 

development, yet the program’s help is always tailored to 

the unique identity and needs of each group. 

The program offers assistance in two "phases." In Phase I, 

participants explore their futures. With the help of a consultant, the organization develops artistic and management goals, then devises strategies to reach those goals and 

crafts a strategic multiyear plan. In Phase II, the participant receives a grant to implement the plan, a comprehensive blueprint covering three to five years. Phase II grants 

must be matched 3 to 1; for each Endowment dollar the 

grantee must raise three dollars from nonfederal souces. 

For example, Underground Railway Theater (URT), 

of Arlington, Massachusetts, a unique blend of puppets, 

symphonic music and human actors, began its Phase I 

participation in 1993. A national touring theater for 

children and adults, URT creates original works that 

combine puppets and actors, collaborations with symphony orchestras, and original works addressing contemporary social themes such as homelessness. In addition, 

URT is in the fourth year of an innovative interactive 

cable television project involving Massachusetts teachers 

and students. The company has appeared in 30 states as 

well as in Canada, Europe, Central America and the former Soviet Union. URT wants to create a stable ensemble and rethink its fundamental mission whether to 

remain a national touring company or to become a resident company with a home season and stronger local 

presence, a key to long term stabilization.

1993 Annual Report 247 
=!
 
This year the Arts in Education (ALE) Program continued a four-part approach to arts education support. 

Grants in the Arts Education Partnership category supported the programs of state arts agencies (SAAs). While 

diverse in their approaches, all SAAs address the goals of 

the category, which are to provide substantial arts education experiences for students from pre-kindergarten 

through 12th grade, and to make the arts a basic part of 

education at every grade level. 

During the school year, the SAAs’ comprehensive programs employed approximately 11,400 artists in nearly 

8,000 sites in the 50 states and four special jurisdictions. These artists reached almost 3 million students 

and worked with 153,000 teachers and administrators. 

Most states have engaged in state-wide planning to 

make the arts integral to elementary and secondary education. Along with traditional artist residency programs, 

almost half the agencies’ programs include artist-teacher 

institutes, and most SAAs offer grants to schools to integrate the arts into the curricula. The SAAs work in 

partnership with state and local education agencies, arts 

organizations, businesses and others to develop and implement programs tailored to their needs. 

For example, part of the Alabama Arts Council’s program places emphasis on the artist as a trainer of teach1993 Annual Report 249 
 

 

ers and on the development of lesson plans in cooperation with classroom teachers. This cadre of artist-trained 

teachers then served as trainers for other teachers. As a 

result of this program’s demonstration of the value of 

arts education, several school systems have hired full 

time art specialists. 

The South Dakota Arts Council’s partnerships meet 

many needs of the state. The Council sponsored an 

Artists in Schools/Youth at Risk workshop for sponsors 

and artists to discuss residency strategies. Special needs 

education specialists were presenters. And in collaboration with the State Library system and the State 

Department of Education, the Council placed artists in 

rural libraries for summer community residencies. 

The Colorado Council on the Arts offered four schools 

the opportunity to participate in an expanded teacher 

training project within the context of the artist residency. Called AIRlift, four each of classroom teachers, residency artists and teacher consultants from the schools 

worked to expand teacher creativity in the use of the arts 

and artistic process in teaching the schools’ curricula. 

The Arts Plus category supports multi-year partnerships 

between arts organizations and schools to integrate the 

arts into the curricula and to increase the arts organizations’ commitment to education. During FY 1993, Arts 

Plus underwent a formal evaluation. Among the findings were: 1) Arts Plus has transformed how arts organizations approach arts education. Several companies’ 

artistry has been enhanced as a result of their Arts Plus 

work. 2) Arts Plus changes teachers and administrators, 

motivating them to teach the arts and build momentum 

within their schools to make the arts basic. 3) Arts Plus 

partnerships allow educators to add artists’ perspectives 

and foster opportunities for a critical group of teachers 

to be committed to and skilled in the arts. 4) Arts Plus 

can be a model for school/community partnerships.

Schools participating in the evaluation reported that 

they are more likely now to seek out partnerships with 

other community institutions. A full report is available 

from the AIE Program. 

Special Project Initiatives support long-range or nationally significant projects that often involve other 

Federal agencies or organizations. These include leadership initiatives to support a national consensus 

process for the National Assessment of Educational 

Progress (NAEP), and development of voluntary national standards in the arts. The standards project, supported in partnership with the National Endowment 

for the Humanities and the U.S. Department of 

Education, is being coordinated by the Consortium of 

National Arts Education Associations. 

This category also supports summer fellowships for 

teachers of the arts to enhance their knowledge and 

skills, ultimately for the benefit of their students. The 

fellowship program, developed and implemented by 

the Council for Basic Education, awarded 33 fellowships. The diverse projects included: exploration of the 

music of Wisconsin Indians to develop an elementary 

school curriculum; collection of oral histories, photos 

and videos about a Native American child’s lifestyle 

from 1850-1900, which culminated in the creation of 

a series of theater scripts exploring Native American 

culture; development of a plan for a sculpture garden, 

including the use of new materials to produce a large, 

ceramic sculpture; research into indigenous plant fibers 

from the Pennsylvania woods to use in creating pulp 

for handmade paper; creation of dances based on 

Chinese, Indian and African folk tales and music. The 

Program Collaborations category serves as a vehicle to 

support projects in the other Endowment programs 

that address specific arts education needs within their 

artistic disciplines or fields. See relevant program chapters for more about these individual projects.

1993 Annual Report 257 
The Local Arts Agencies Program focuses 

on methods to strengthen a national support system for local cultural development. 

The program helps communities affirm 

authentic and inclusive priorities. Also, 

it seeks to increase citizen involvement in 

the cultural affairs of their communities. 

These tasks must be acomplished if the 

arts are to thrive in this decade. 

As Chambers of Commerce help business 

enterprise, America’s 3,800 local arts agen- A cies advance arts and cultural development 

in communities of every size everywhere. 

We know that at least two-thirds of local arts agencies 

make grants to artists and arts organizations in their 

communities. Local arts agencies also provide services 

to artists and arts organizations, present performances 

and festivals, offer neighborhood outreach programs, 

and manage cultural facilities. Research has shown that 

more than four-flfths of local arts agencies have arts-ineducation programs, and more than half have arts programs that address social issues such as youth-at-risk, 

race relations, substance abuse and crime. 

While grants in the Local Government Incentive 

Category required a two-to-one match by city and/or 

county governments, the projected match was sevento-one million in 1993. Grants in this category serve 

more than 1,100 local arts organizations in hundreds 

of communities, large and small, across America. 

In rural Tifton, a Georgia 

community 200 miles from G 

major cities, the Arts Exper- A iment Station received a 

three-year grant to renovate a historic 

church building to house the Tifron Museum of Arts and 

Heritage. The visual-arts anchor for the cultural district, 

the Museum will become the center for quality art exhibits, performances and literary events that emphasize 

global and multicultural programming. Working in partnership with a network of other local arts agencies established by the Arts Experiment Station to 

form a rural arts consortium, this project 

addresses the need for facilities and programming for the 

visual arts. 

The Westchester Arts Council in White 

Plains, New York received a three-year grant 

for an arts-in-education collaboration involving 21 arts organizations, 65 artists, Manhattanville 

College, the Board of Cooperative Educational Services 

(BOCES) and six school districts serving culturally diverse, inner-city youngsters. This project seeks to create 

lasting, collaborative partnerships between schools and 

local cultural organizations by establishing a sustained, 

sequential, arts-integrated curriculum at the elementary 

level. This project will include the creation of District 

Advisory Committees in each school for planning, 

teacher training, technical assistance and grantmaking for 

arts education programs and materials. An evaluation to 

assess the educational impact of this project will be conducted as well. 

The Local Arts Agency DevelopR ment Category aims to encour-T age planning for community 

cultural development and to improve the quality and caliber of local arts agency administrators and board members through leadership and management training. Funding is available through Planning 

and Professional Staff grants and through Leadership 

Training and Services grants. 

The Planning and Professional Staff category stressed the 

value of access and communication between the local arts 

agency and the community. Business, education, government and community leaders participated in planning 

projects as did artists, patrons and members of arts organizations. By raising community awareness about the 

arts, the projects heightened community support of local 

cultural resources. Twenty-two grants were 

funded in communities from Grand Rapids, ~"

Michigan, to Las Cruces, New Mexico. 

The San Diego Commission for the Arts and E Culture received funding to support a 

Community Cultural Project involving the 

design of a cultural plan with strategies for 

achieving cultural equity and diversity throughout San 

Diego. The Commission plays a special role as the lead 

agency shaping the cultural landscape of the city, home

The College of Creative and CommuniS cation Arts at Northern Arizona University 

in Flagstaffreceived funding to support the 

FlagstaffArts Management Institute, a professional development series for local arts 

agency staff. The Institute offered five one-week concurrent courses in program areas common to local arts agencies including grantsmaking, arts-in-education, arts festivals, public art/community design, financial management 

and board development. 

In Raleigh, North Carolina, the Association of Arts 

Councils received a grant to support training for local 

arts agencies around the state. As the statewide assembly of local arts agencies, the Association provides 

workshops, conferences, publications and information 

services to local arts agencies and other member organizations. This project involves training for participants 

in a peer advisory network, a group of arts administrators able to provide on-site technical assistance. Additionally, the grant supports speakers and panelists with 

an emphasis on leadership development for the Association’s annual conference, specific training programs 

for regional groups of members’ and sch°larship assistance for members to attend 

the 1994 United Arts Fund 

Coalition Conference.

The South Dakota Arts Council reE ceived funding to assist local arts agencies in underserved areas. In collaboration with South Dakotans for the Arts, 

the statewide assembly of local arts agencies, the 

Council will implement the findings of the Native Arts 

Planning Effort, including a grants program to support 

Native American arts projects on reservations and an 

assessment of the needs of Native Americans living in 

urban areas. Additionally, the project will include onsite technical assistance to rural and 

reservation local arts agencies and travel 

assistance for individuals from these ~

1993 Annual Report 263 
 

One of the Arts Endowment’s great successes has been its 

role in the development of active arts agencies in the 

states and special jurisdictions. While the Endowment 

provides important support for state arts agencies Q 

(SAAs), they have grown and found other sources of 

support. Collectively these agencies receive nine times as 

much funding from their state governments as they get 

in the form of Basic State Grants from this program. 

The states also receive grants from other Endowment 

programs for a variety of purposes, including promotion 

of the arts in education, assistance to local arts agencies, 

development of rural arts organizations, support for folk 

arts, and encouragement of dance touring. ~ 

The State & Regional Program awards Basic State 

Grants and Regional Arts Programming Grants. In addition, it helps support collaborative initiatives jointly developed by the Endowment’s discipline programs and 

the state and regional arts agencies. Collaborative initiatives this year included Dance on Tour and the Regional 

Visual Arts Fellowships. 

Project, 

which provides  ̄ 

after-school arts programs at State University under the direction of the Alvin Ailey 

various sites in South Central Los Company and School; and Virginia’s program of assisAngeles; Missouri’s program of direct annual sup- tance to help five rural counties develop volunteer arts orAided by Regional Arts Programming Grants, seven regional arts organizations extend the capacities of both 

the state arts agencies and the Arts Endowment by supporting activities often most effectively administered on 

a multi-state basis, such as fee support to performing arts 

presenters and regional visual arts fellowships. These organizations combine federal funds with state and private 

contributions to support programs that advance the careers of artists and bring touring events to millions of audience members.  ̄ 

This program also administers about half of the 

Endowment program funds set aside by Congress for 

projects in rural, inner-city and other artistically underserved areas. These funds are administered 

through the Arts in Underserved 

Communities category, 

which supports 

port to help 

rural and inner-city 

African American organizations develop and present arts programs; Georgia’s Arts 

in the Atlanta Project, an arts component of a public/private effort to address the city’s social ills; Maryland’s support of dance camps for inner-city youth, held at Morgan 

264 National Endowment for the Arts 
projects developed by state arts agencies in collaboration 

with people in rural and inner city communities. 

 ̄ 

This year the category helped support projects which are 

making a positive difference in the lives of people in underserved areas in 54 states and jurisdictions. They include: Alaska’s program of technical assistance and 

grant support for cultural groups in

~k 

Effective national strategies for support of the arts in underserved areas as well as for arts in education, dance 

touring, the folk arts and more, would be impossible 

without a strong network of state and regional arts agencies. This network exists in part because of the Basic 

State Grants and Regional Arts Programming Grants, 

which constitute a stable, ongoing investment in arts 

programs that respond to local needs. 

@ 

State arts agencies provide a wide range of grants and services to artists, arts organizations and audiences in communities of every size and description. Last year they 

awarded over 26,700 grants to groups in more than 5,500 

tion of a Border Arts Project to promote arts programming in community organizations along the 

border with Mexico; California’s 

Inner City Latchkey 

communities. SAA grants went 

to groups in every Congressional 

District, and approximately one-third of 

the grants went to groups in rural areas. 

SAAs serve as an important source of support for the 

arts in all disciplines. Last year they provided $28 million for projects in music, $25 million for projects in the 

visual arts, $22 million for projects in theater, $12 million for projects in dance, $38 million for projects in 

other disciplines, and more than $53 million for multidisciplinary projects (including support to local arts 

agencies, presenting series, arts centers, etc.). More than 

43 percent of SAA grant funds went for general operating support to arts organizations.

1993 Annual Report 269 
The Arts Endowment’s authorizing statute requires 

the agency to award 7.5 percent of its program funds 

to state arts agencies and regional consortia of SAAs 

for the support of projects that 1) raise the artistic capabilities of developing arts organizations and 2) stimulate artistic activity, awareness and greater public 

access to the arts in rural, inner-city and other artistically underserved areas. Five programs participated in 

the Set-Aside this year, and through their combined 

efforts provided support in every state and several 

special jurisdictions. 

The Expansion Arts Program’s Rural Arts Initiative 

(RAI) identifies rural arts organizations that produce 

work of high artistic caliber but are hampered by lack 

of professional staff. Since 1991 RAI funding has 

helped stabilize some 80 rural arts groups in nineteen 

states. This year four additional projects began, in 

Arkansas, Kentucky, Oklahoma and Nebraska. RAI 

funding has been pivotal in small communities where 

volunteer resources are stretched and part-time staffing 

uncertain. One grantee for example, the Montana Arts 

Council, received help in assisting widespread rural organizations in Anaconda, Fort Peck, Livingston, 

Kalispell and Miles City (whose Custer County Art 

Center, based in a renovated underground space, serves 

nine adjoining agricultural counties). 

The Folk Arts Organizations and State Apprenticeship 

categories are the main Set-Aside vehicles for the Folk 

Arts Program. Working through its national network 

of state folk arts coordinators, this program used SetAside funds to do ground-breaking work with people 

in regions that had been underserved--or not served at 

all--by state arts agencies. For example, the Alabama 

State Council on the Arts identified outstanding folk 

artists representing many traditional genres--among 

them blues, gospel, shape-note singing, string band 

music, basket weaving, quilting--and presented them 

at the state Folklife Festival. 

Funds from the Local Arts Agencies Program are available for various programs and services that benefit local 

arts agencies: salary assistance for a local director or employee of a statewide assembly; assistance to cover travel 

and fees for local arts agency staffto attend professional

consultants to help strengthen local 

arts agency management skills; cultural development planning; innovative 

technical assistance; publications and 

communications; programs and services to address local cultural development. In Texas, for example, the state arts commission 

used Endowment funds to provide educational and technical assistance to I 10 arts agencies in rural and underserved areas. 

The Presenting & Commissioning program helps underserved communities through regional consortia of 

SAAs and through Dance on Tour. Support to the regional groups helps performers tour, increases resources 

for presenting organizations, improves fee support and 

strengthens professional development of the presenting 

field as a whole. Dance on Tour helps outstanding 

dance artists and companies throughout the nation. A 

single grant to one regional arts organization, the MidAmerica Arts Alliance for instance, helped touring 

dancers, choreographers and presenters reach audiences

The State & Regional Program’s 

set-aside grants enable state arts 

agencies to support projects developed with people in communities that lack access to 

arts resources because of such factors as geography, 

economic conditions, cultural background and disability. Community-based arts organizations, workshops, 

artist residencies, arts presenting, festivals, traditional 

arts and arts education have all benefitted from State 

& Regional grants. Assistance has gone to all 50 

states and five special jurisdictions since 1991. This 

year one grant helped establish artist residencies in 

housing developments in five Texas cities. Another 

supported after-school arts programs developed ~vith 

Vermont’s Office of Alcohol and Drug Abuse to give 

young Vermonters opportunities to develop their own 

artistic voices. Dozens of other projects help make 

positive differences for people living in rural and 

inner-city communities.

Budget Coordination 

Through its various divisions, the Office of Planning, 

Research and Budget Coordination undertakes research 

and develops information on the condition and needs of 

artists, arts organizations, audiences and arts support systems. These activities assist policy development and planning within the agency; and help to inform both policymakers and the public about issues concerning the arts. 

The efforts of the office are focused primarily on longrange planning, policy development and analysis, research 

and the provision of services to the field. In keeping with 

this focus, the biennial report to Congress and the 

President, The Arts in America, 1992, was completed during this year and released to the nation. The report provided a detailed analysis of the impact that the National 

Endowment for the Arts has had on the health and economic well-being of the nation and the artistic community. 

Among other things, The Arts in America, 1992 identified the impact of the creative arts industry on the ha280 National Endowment for the Arts 
tion’s economy, citing a contribution of over 6 percent 

to the Gross National Product during 1989. Further, the 

report described the role of the Arts Endowment in enriching the cultural life of the nation, particularly 

through its support of individual artists. For instance, 

the Endowment provided support for a range of American playwrights, including David Henry Hwang, who 

received a Tony award for his famous work, M. Butterfly, 

and playwright Eduardo Machado, who received grants 

from the Endowment in 1981, 1983, and 1986. Mr. 

Machado’s plays The Modern Ladies of Guanabacoa, 

Once Removed, and Broken Eggs have been performed at 

major theaters throughout the country, including the 

Mark Taper Forum, Long Wharf Theater, Repertorio 

Espanol, and the American Place Theater. 

The Arts in America found that on average during the 

1980s some 60 percent of all writers who won major 

national awards, such as the Pulitzer Prize and the 

National Book Critics Circle Awards, received grants 

from the Endowment early in their careers. Seventy 

percent of the Pulitzer Prize winners in poetry during 

this period also received Endowment support, as did 

two-thirds of the recipients of the PEN Faulkner Award 

for Fiction. 

The Arts in America reported on the challenge facing the 

Endowment in s6mulating organizational development and 

public access during a period of economic and cultural uncertaint~ For example, it was found that almost half of all operamusical theater organizations and professional dance companies 

experienced operating defidts during FY 1991. A s’urfil~ number of nonprofit professional theater groups also faced operational defidts, which translated into a 33.5 percent decline in 

their touring activig". 

The need for leadership and funding support by the 

Endowment to help stem this decline in public access 

and organizational viability was underscored in Dance/ 

USA’s dance touring survey which declared, "the Federal 

government’s presence in dance touring is vital." The 

Dance/USA report went on to state that the National 

Endowment for the Arts "has had the most influence in 

shaping the country’s dance touring system," and that 

the agency "is an irreplaceable partner in any effort to 

build a reliable base of support." Researching and documenting this type of information for the agency and the 

field are the key roles of the Office of Planning, Research 

and Budget Coordination. 

As part of its operation in FY ’93, three sections functioned under this office: the Research Division, the 

Arts Administration Fellows Program, and the Office 

of Special Constituencies. These units are responsible 

for special activities which impact strategic planning 

and policy development within the agency, as follows: 

The Research Division gathers data and information on 

the condition of the arts and artists in America, public 

participation in the arts, and arts and the economy, as well 

as other areas as identified by the agency. The division undertakes these projects in collaboration with private researchers, nonprofit organizations, and other federal agencies. The analysis and dissemination of this information 

are accomplished through the publication of research reports and notes, and through periodic conferences and the 

services of the Arts Endowment’s library. 

The Arts Administration Fellows Program supports the 

professional development of arts managers. This is accomplished through their placement in eleven-week 

residencies in Endowment programs and offices. These 

residencies are designed to provide a national overview 

of the arts, the Endowment and its roles and processes 

in supporting the arts. 

The Special Constituencies Office works to increase access 

to the arts for older and disabled people, as well as individuals living in institutions including hospitals, prisons, 

and nursing homes. This is done by providing education 

and technical assistance to organizations, and also by 

funding efforts that promote and assist access.

Congress, the executive branch and private 

cultural interests depend on reliable data 

for the formulation and assessment of cultural policies. The Research Division helps 

develop the information necessary to inform cultural policy processes by examining the cultural 

needs of the public, identifying ways to enhance access to 

cultural opportunities, studying the effects of the economy on cultural activities, and documenting the value of 

arts education to the nation’s educational system. 

This year the Division funded fifteen research monographs that provide detailed analyses of the results from 

the 1982, 1985, and 1992 Surveys of Public Participation 

in the Arts. These monographs include extensive investigations of how arts participation varies across age groups,

and 1990, as well as additional data sources available on

SPECIAL CONSTiTUENCiES
 

The Office for Special Constituencies is 

charged with educating the public and 

raising awareness in matters involving 

accessible arts programming for people 

who are older, disabled, or living in institutions. This office works with Endowment staff, grantees and other federal agencies to educate artists and arts administrators on how to make the 

arts more available to these underserved Americans. The 

focus is on inclusion: opening up existing programs, 

and on outreach: taking the arts to people who would 

not otherwise have these opportunities. 

This year the Special Constituencies Office commissioned the "Disabilities Access Symbols Project: 

Promoting Accessible Places and Programs." This is a 

graphics package designed to help arts organizations 

better advertise their accessible programs and facilities. 

It features twelve access symbols on camera-ready 

glossy paper and on computer disks, which are accompanied by explanatory text concerning the appropriate 

use of each symbol. This project appears to have been 

the first attempt to standardize, collect and create a 

graphic vocabulary of the major access symbols on 

computer disk. 

need for the major accessibility symbols 

to be organized and made computer-accessible. Graphic Artists Guild Foundation in New York City was selected 

to conduct research on existing symbols, 

create a new symbol for audio description and improve the design of existing symbols. For example, the widely used assistive listening symbol (which 

depicted an ear with a line through it) was changed to 

show an ear cupped with waves to indicate amplification. 

Seventeen representatives of disability and aging groups 

served as reviewers for the project, including the American Association of Retired Persons and the American 

Foundation for the Blind. 

The symbols may be used by museums, state arts agencies, performing arts facilities and other groups in advertisements, press releases, brochures, signage and floor 

plans. This office distributed 500 copies to state and regional arts agencies, and other arts service groups. The 

Graphic Artists Guild is marketing the disks which may 

be reproduced to encourage wide distribution. 

A second regional conference, "Arts Accessibility: The 

Challenge is Ours," was convened by the Southern Arts 

Federation (SAF) in October 1992 in Atlanta. Its purpose

ties and programs fully accessible. This conference 

brought together 180 arts administrators from SAF’s 

nine-state region and featured presentations by more 

than 40 leaders in the arts and accessibility communities. 

It included seminars on accessible visual and performing arts programs, staff training, design solutions and 

new technologies. Presenters included Nina Brock, a 

member of the National Council on the Arts; Sharon 

Herr, Director of Center Stage Theater in Raleigh; 

Cheryl Palmer, Director of Education for the Mint 

Museum in Charlotte; and Kitty Lunn, Chair of 

Actors, Equity-Performers with Disabilities Committee, who discussed the importance of full access and 

non-traditional casting in terms of actors with disabilities. Most important, each state is convening similar 

meetings for arts groups using the Atlanta conference 

as a model. 

The joint Universal Design Leadership Initiative, involving this office and the Design Arts Program, continues to 

expand. Universal Design addresses design of spaces, 

products and programs that makes access features an inteo 

gral part of design --to accommodate people throughout 

their lives. The Design Arts Program is supporting advertising and distribution of a new video, Taward Universal

The office continues to organize meetings of the Working Group on Older and Disabled Americans to better 

coordinate the Endowment’s access issues. Discussions 

and actions have included developing increased access 

language in the Endowment’s funding guidelines to help 

grantees better understand accessibility. Responding to 

the need for more Endowment panelists’ with disability 

expertise, the office identified and added over 100 qualified artists and administrators to the Endowment’s new 

Automated Panel Bank System. 

Other efforts to educate arts administrators included 

presentations and seminars at fourteen meetings sponsored by grantees. They include keynote addresses and 

access seminars for the West Virginia Museum Association Conference in Lewisburg; the Broward Cultural 

Affairs Councils’ "Arts Accessibility" conference in Ft. 

Lauderdale; and at the Texas Arts Councils’ "Breaking
