STABHSHED BY CONGRESS IN 1965, THE 

National Endowment for the Arts is the federal agency that supports the visual, literary 

and performing arts to benefit all Americans. 

Its mission is to serve the American people -­

by fostering artistic excellence and helping to 

develop the nation’s finest creative talent; by preserving and 

transmitting our diverse cultural 

heritage; by making the arts more 

accessible to all Americans, young, 

old, or disabled, living in rural 

towns or major cities; by promoting the vitality of arts institutions; 

and by helping to make the arts intrinsic to education. 

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.
 

How the Agency Functions 

THE ENDOWMENT SERVES THE
 

American public by providing financial assistance to artists and
 

nonprofit arts organizations. The .....
 

"~ agency also awards grants to other ~ 

grams’ guidelines for the following year. During application 

review, the panel discusses applications and support materials 

in light of the review criteria in the existing guidelines, and 

makes recommendations for funding. 

The panels’ recommendations are forwarded to the 

National Council on the Arts for its review in open meeting 

at which individual grant applications and supporting materials may be discussed. The 

National Council makes its recommendations to the Chairman of 

the Arts Endowment on applications recommended for funding, 

and makes decisions on those to be 

rejected. 

The Chairman of the Endowment then decides whether or not 

to fund applications recommended 

by the Council 

The Chairman 

APPOINTED BY THE PRESIDENT 

of the United States with the advice and consent of the Senate, the

being processed by the appropriate program staff, applications go through a three-step process: 

First, they are reviewed by an advisory panel, which is a 

continually rotating committee composed of experts from 

the field and a knowledgeable layperson. The panel reviews 

applications in closed session, and then, in open session, provides guidance on general policy, procedures, and the prothe Arts. These citizens have broad experience in the various 

arts disciplines and in the major aspects of artistic enterprise 

such as creation, performance, presentation, 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 

philosophic bounds.

In addition to making funding recommendations, the 

Council advises the Chairman on policies, programs and 

procedures. Council members serve six-year terms, staggered 

so that roughly one-third of the Council membership rotates 

evety two years.

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. Program grants 

to arts organizations must be matched at least dollar-for-dollar with funds received from other sources. Grants to individuals do not require matching funds. 

Treasury Fund grants, 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 on at least a three-toone basis, stimulate support 

for significant projects with 

long-term impact. Ranging up 

to $1 million, Challenge 

grants fund projects that promote expanded artistry, enhanced access and art appreciation, and strengthened arts 

support systems. 

Impact of Endowment Grants 

EVERY GRANT DIRECTLY 

benefits the grantee and thus 

the grantee’s home community and state. On the average, more than a quarter of 

the Endowment’s funding

serve on the advisory peer panels. The panelists represent 

many aesthetic and cultural viewpoints, providing a crosssection of American experience and artistic opinion. Panels 

typically include artists, arts administrators, board members, critics, arts educators and knowledgeable laymen. 

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; and from 

Endowment staffand Council members. Appointments to 

panels are made by the Endowment chairman. Membership 

on the panels rotates regularly, as no member may serve more 

than three years consecutively. Panelists may not serve on a 

panel for program categories in which they have a pending 

application. 

home state of the recipient. 

Typically, about 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 20 percent of Endowment grant 

funds supported projects of national impact. Many of 

these served audiences nationwide through radio or TV 

broadcasting, publications or recordings. Others reached 

wide audiences through touring -- of a dance company 

or a sculpture exhibition, for example. Still other grants 

had 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 this symbol:

8 National Endowment for the Arts 
Annual Report 

THIS REPORT COVERS THE FISCAL YEAR THAT ENDED 

September 30, 1992. During that period the Art Endowment awarded 4,141 grants, entered into 78 cooperative 

agreements, and participated in six interagency agreements. 

As the Financial Summary shows, the agency obligated 

$141,040,581 in Program, Treasury and miscellaneous 

funds, and an additional $13,522,556 in Challenge funds for 

a total of $154,563,137 to gupport artists, cultural organizations and state and local arts agencies in FY ’92. 

The Programs section of this report covers grants 

awarded within specific arts disciplines and for particular 

arts activities, such as the Dance Program and Presenting & 

Commissioning Program. The Public Partnership section 

covers grants awarded primarily to other public agencies, 

especially regional, state and local arts agencies. The Policy, 

Planning, Research & Budget section covers a variety of 

special offices, including those that supported arts administration fellowships, research, special constituencies and 

international activities. 

Within the first three parts of this report, each chapter 

opens with introductory information on the pertinent office 

or Program. Then, typically, the chapter lists all that 

Program’s grants, grouped by category. The grants are 

described individually as are the funding categories. 

Most grants are awarded from Program Funds. In cases 

that include money from Treasury Funds, which generally 

must be matched 3 to 1 with nonfederal funds, the figure 

marked "TF" notes the amount. The number in brackets 

following each description, e.g. [92-5443-0131], is the grant 

identification number. A fraction of the agency’s awards are 

made in the form of cooperative agreements to support projects in which the Endowment has special oversight or involvement, such as the Mayors’ Institute on City Design. 

Cooperative agreements are numbered in a separate series, 

with the prefix "DCA." 

The Endowment Chairman has statutory authority to 

award grants of up to $30,000 in emergency situations or 

cases of unusual opportunity (generally following a panel’s 

recommendation). After the award of these grants, designated 

as Extraordinary Action grants, the Council reviews them. 

Rosters of the panels that reviewed the applications follow 

the grant lists in each chapter. A panel’s name is usually the 

same as the grant category. However, some panels review 

more than one category of applications. In cases where the 

review panel’s name differs from that of the category, the 

panel name is given after the grant description. Panels designated I and II, A and B, etc. occur where pools of panelists 

and applications were split to meet Congressional require0

thousands of performers who enliven the stages of 

America with the help of the Endowment’s grants to nearly 

600 dance, theater and opera companies. 

ments regarding the appearance of conflicts of interest. 

Occasionally, when circumstances dictated the use of a special 

panel to review a small number of applications, this panel’s 

members are listed immediately after the grant description. 

Applications in the Challenge and Advancement Programs 

generally are reviewed first by panels from the appropriate 

Programs. Recommended applications are then forwarded to 

Challenge and Advancement panels composed of representatives from Program panels. In the Challenge and Advancement chapters, these combined panels appear first, since they 

make the final recommendations to the National Council. 

The lists of individual Program panels follow. 

In addition to the panels that review applications, most 

Programs have Overview panels, which consider field-wide 

programs and policy issues and recommend changes in program guidelines. Since these panels generally do not review 

applications, they are listed separately, after the Policy, 

Planning, Research and Budget chapter. 

Financial Summaries conclude the book. The first part of 

this section reviews funds obligated in FY ’92. The section 

also presents a history of authorizations and appropriations 

for the agency since 1966.

The Dance Program supports the highest quali~y and creativi{y 

in dance and helps make a broad range of exemplary dance 

available to audiences nationwide through grants to professional 

companies and to choreographers, as well as to individuals and 

organizations that present or serve dance. 

p

RODIGIOUS CREATIVITY AND BOLD EXPLORAtion mark the history of dance in America. 

American dance has won international acclaim for 

its innovation across an unmatched range of classical and contemporary forms, and for the profusion and vitality of its traditions. New forms and fusions have arisen out 

of the cross-fertilization of concert, folkloric, theatrical and 

vernacular dance. In FY 1992 the Dance Program continued 

to invest in the creativity of the dance field through grants to 

choreographers and dance companies. 

The individual choreographer is central to the development of dance. This year the Program provided support to 

47 professional choreographers whose work has attained 

national excellence in a variety of idioms including African 

American, Asian American, ballet, classical Asian Indian, 

dogging, ice dancing, jazz, modern, post-modern, Spanish, 

social, tap, and others. These grants enabled artists to pay 

dancers, rent space for rehearsals and performance, rework 

materials, and prepare new choreography. 

Among the recipients, Jimmy Gamonet de los Heros, 

resident choreographer with the Miami City Ballet, planned 

to use his three-year fellowship to deepen his knowledge of 

musical styles and to commission scores from composers. 

Sukanya Rahman Wicks of Orr’s Island, ME, who received a 

two-year fellowship in recognition of her mastery of classical 

Asian Indian dance forms, planned to complete a book 

about her dancing family as a first step towards a solo 

narrative program. Dorothy Jungels, a two-year grantee in 

Providence, RI, planned to continue collaborating with her 

company, a composer, and a physics teacher to further develop "The Science Project." This program uses dance to 

teach physics in public schools and combines physics with 

dance in performances. 

The year’s Dance Company Grants ensured seasonal support to 120 outstanding dance companies in 22 states, the 

District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. 

These grants provided support for a variety of activities including the creation of new work, education, touring, and 

home season productions. Artists Eiko and Koma of New 

York received funds m create a new work involving new 

music accompaniment by Native Americans and for touring 

activity, including performances in California, Minnesota 

and Colorado. The African American company Muntu 

received support to produce a work in its home city of 

Chicago and to tour sites in the south, including historically 

black colleges. ODC/San Francisco was awarded support to 

create a new work in collaboration with the musician Bobby 

McFerrin, and for a collaborative presentation with the 

Minnesota Orchestra. 

The Grants to Dance Presenters category assured quality 

programming and residency activities for artists and companies throughout the United States. Some 63 presenting 

organizations across the country received funds to support 

dance presentation, associated outreach and education, and 

the commissioning of new work in the 1992-93 season. 

An array of 33 dance service projects received grants in 

the General Services to the Field category. Recipients included national, regional, and local service organizations, 

performance spaces, and other arts organizations. Funds 

assisted documentation and research services; the provision 

of performance and rehearsal spaces; technical, financial and 

management services; education projects; communication 

within the dance field; and promotion of public appreciation 

of dance. 

Underscoring the importance of dance in early childhood 

development, the Original Ballets Foundation was awarded 

funds to support the activities of the New Ballet School, providing New York City public school children with free ballet 

training and related educational services. These children, 

most of them economically disadvantaged, would otherwise 

not have access to professional dance training. The school, 

a national model, auditions 15,000 students and enrolls 

500 annually. 

Dance/Film/Video grants promoted the use of film and 

video to creatively preserve, enhance, and expand the art of 

dance. Several projects highlighted dance pioneers and mas14 National Endowment for the Arts

ters. Dance Pioneers in Santa Cruz, CA, for example, was 

awarded funds to document the life and work of Donald 

McKayle, a performer and choreographer who has helped 

redefine the role of black artists on the American stage. 

The Special Projects category supported model projects 

that advance the dance art form. The Dance Heritage 

Initiative, a special pilot to support exemplary projects that 

document and preserve America’s dance heritage, awarded a 

grant to the Earth Circle Association in Mt. Shasta, CA. 

One of the first grants, awarded through this initiative, this 

project was designed to support the restoration and documentation of the teaching of five Native American traditional dances from the tribes along the Klamath River in 

Northern California: the Brush Dance, Flower Dance, Jump 

Dance, Protection Dance, and White Deerskin Dance. Over 

a two-year period, teachers and students will learn dances, 

songs and chants, and how to reconstruct regalia. Videotapes of the teaching will then be made available to scholars 

and students. 

The Program continued to invest in ongoing model projects of national and international impact. The Dance 

Theatre Workshop’s National Performance Network helped 

22 dance artists and companies conduct one- and two-week 

residencies through 51 performing arts organizations and 

community centers in 26 cities--more than anticipated. 

"Alive TV," an eight-week public television series produced 

by KTCA in St. Paul, produces and acquires dance programs 

that reach thousands of viewers nationwide. It also offers collaborative opportunities for dance and media artists to enliven dance through the medium of television. 

Dance On Tour is a collaboration with the Presenting 

and Commissioning Program and the State and Regional 

Program in partnership with regional arts organizations and 

state arts agencies to enhance dance touring and presentation 

nationwide. This year the Dance Program s Dance On Tou ’ r 

grant to the Mid-America Arts Alliance included a special 

initiative to offer the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre to 

two target communities in Arkansas and Oklahoma.

The Design Arts .Program supports excellence in the disciplines of 

architecture, landscape architecture, urban and regional planning, historic preservation, interior design, and graphic, industrial, and product design. Working through a combination of 

grants and leadership activities, it strives to make the American 

public more aware of the benefits of good design by promoting 

informed design discussion and criticism. The program also 

links the public with valuable design resources and encourages 

design approaches that stimulate creativity while celebrating design heritage. Generally, the grants program supports the work 

of professional designers seeking to expand or improve design 

practice, while leadership activities emphasize public education 

and the delivery of competent design practice to the public. 

I

NVESTMENT IN THE LONG-TERM HEALTH OF 

American design was the focus of Design Arts initiative 

activity in FY 1992. To help Americans become more 

aware of the importance of the design process and its resots, the program continued to emphasize quality design in 

the public realm. Long-term invest .... 

ments in the education of decisionmakers who influence the public 

spaces in which we all live is a program priority. The Mayors’ Institute 

on City Design, which offers a short 

course on urban design principles for 

elected officials, continues to be held 

yearly. Two national institutes are 

cosponsored in Charlottesville with 

the University of Virginia, while . ­

regional institutes occur at the 

Massachusetts Institute of Technology (for northeastern 

cities), Tulane University (for the South), the University of 

Minnesota (Midwest), and University of California, Berkeley 

(the West). 

Likewise, the Program continues to invest in the Design 

for Housing Forum, a project initiated in 1990 which reveals 

the benefits of good design to developers, bankers, housing officials, and others involved in the affordable housing industry. 

Four regional workshops a year bring representatives of the 

housing community from sixteen different cities to learn 

about quality design and how to achieve it within the context 

of long-range community planning. Another Design Arts initiative that invests in the public realm focuses on rural 

America. "Your Town -- Designing Its Future," a training 

seminar for non-designers making design and planning decisions for rural communities, imparts to participants the fundamentals of design quality and how to achieve it. 

A new initiative in design education launched this year 

will continue for several years. Learning Through Design was 

conceived because the potential of&sign to motivate and empower students -- to hone their creative problem-solving and 

critical thinking skills is often overlooked. This initiative 

aims to increase the awareness of design as a catalyst for learning among education leaders and innovators and to stimulate 

wider integration of design throughout K-12 curricula. Prime 

examples of learning through design in public elementary and 

secondary schools (in whatever subject areas and grade levels 

they occur) will serve as a foundation document for a meeting 

of educators who will be asked to develop strategies for the 

greater integration of design throughout the curriculum. A 

publication summarizing the findings and recommendations 

for a long-term reform agenda will be prepared in 1993 and 

distributed to a variety of educators, 

government officials, corporate 

leaders, and other interested citizens 

across the country. Future investment in design education will be 

charted during this first phase of 

activity. 

Program dollars were also invested in improving Federal design 

in FY 1992, since the Federal government is the nation’s single largest 

builder, printer, and user of designed 

products and design services. Each year, the government 

spends more than $40 billion on design and construction activities ranging from erecting bridges, highways, housing, 

and office buildings to producing stamps, publications and 

exhibitions. The Design Arts Program helps Federal agencies 

meet this public responsibility through its Federal Design 

Improvement Program (FDIP) which was initiated by 

President Nixon in 1972 and has been supported by every administration since. Among FDIP activities this year were 

Round III of the Presidential Design Awards Program which 

recognizes design excellence in projects created or sponsored 

by Federal agencies. "From Mars to Main Street: America 

Designs, 1965-1990," an exhibition intended to help the pubNational Endowment for the Arts 
lic see, evaluate, and more actively shape federal design, 

opened this year at the National Building Museum in 

Washington and will continue there through 1993. In-depth 

presentations of a variety of Federal design projects reveal the 

underlying problem-solving process through a variety of twoand three-dimensional visuals, videos, historical artifacts, and 

contemporary objects. 

In addition to grant dollars invested in industrial design, 

the Program supports the Design Management Institute (DMI) 

as it develops case studies of corporate design management for 

integration into business school curricula following the case 

method developed by the Harvard Business School. DMI engages professors to undertake field-based research, draft cases 

and test them in classrooms, and prepare teaching notes for a 

core collection of case studies for distribution to business and 

engineering schools. Examples of case study topics or. companies 

selected thus far include Bahco Tools, Braun, Canon, Digital, 

Sony, GE Plastics, Steelcase, Miata, Polaroid, and Techscan. 

Design Arts also supports~ Carnegie-Mellon University’s 

Department of Design in the development of a series of video 

tapes and instruction workbooks to help business managers understand product design, its role in competitiveness, and strategies for implementing sound design management practices. 

Aside from grant moneys devoted to professional development, the Program also invests in the field by providing information on design projects, activities, professionals, and organizations throughout America accumulated through program 

initiatives, grants, panelists, staff, and other design organizations. Through its computerized information service and publications, Design Access establishes links among discipline-specific design services and directs users to existing resources. The 

exchange of design information and expertise will be increased 

by improving communications among Federal, state and local 

agencies, and associations and institutions concerned with design issues. Information about these professional design organizations’ activities is made available along with information 

about Endowment leadership activities via this new outreach 

program, which maintains a library of current design literature 

that is available to the public. 

A Heritage ConservaUon grant to the New-York Historical 

Society helps preserve the papers of architect Cass Gilbert, 

including these drawings of two Manhattan landmarks, the 

Custom House (facing page) and Woolworth Tower.

Expansion Arts
 

354 grants; 3 cooperative agreements

Program Funds: $6,052,300 

The Expansion Arts Program supports arts of a high standard 

for and among the ethnic groups that make up the mosaic of 

American culture. The Program does this primarily by aiding 

community-based organizations that encourage professional 

artists in those communities to make, present and teach art. 

These artists, as varied as America itself, represent an array of 

traditionalists and modernists. This not only enhances the quali~y of life in communities that are often economically depressed, 

it also presents the work to growing mainstream audiences. 

T HE EXPANSION ARTS PROGRAM IS ONE OF THE 

Arts Endowment’s most potent means of investing in rural and inner-city communities alike. 

The Program funds arts organizations that stabilize neighborhoods and stimulate economic development. In 

San Antonio, for example, the Guadalupe Cultural Center 

anchors the cultural life of one of the city’s largest and poorest barrios. Since the renovation of the Center in 1984, activity in the arts complex has attracted several businesses to 

the area. This in turn led to a $3 million redevelopment project that currently includes a market, plaza area, literacy center, private pharmacy and several medical offices. 

Bushfire Theatre, located in a depressed area of Philadelphia, had such success with the renovation of an old movie 

theater that the city gave it an entire block of deserted buildings to develop. Bushfire now owns the whole block which, 

in addition to a proscenium theater, houses two 75-seat performing arts spaces, meeting rooms (which are rented out at 

nominal rates to community groups), a row house that provides short-term housing for guest artists, and an arts "mart." 

Not only do some Expansion Arts grantees help stabilize 

communities, but they also preserve traditions and introduce 

the artistic heritage of many cultures to new and varied 

audiences. Houston’s Asian-American Festival, for example, 

features the traditional dance and music of a dozen Asian 

cultures. 

While the creation and presentation of new work is an invaluable cultural stimulus in insulated or isolated communities, Expansion Arts grantees also assist individuals who are 

at-risk because of economic and educational conditions. A 

noteworthy grantee is the St. Francis Music Center in rural 

Minnesota, which offers intensive music instruction to youth 

in a depressed area of the state. Many students go on to 

major in music at distinguished colleges and conservatories. 

Similarly, the Christina Community Center in Wilmington, 

DE operates a successful program to improve the self-esteem 

of poor, single mothers and teenage parents through instruction in the arts. 

In an effort to help organizations to better manage their 

growth, the Program operates the Organizational Development Pilot (ODP). Now in its third and final year, this 

category helped a number of arts presenting organizations 

hire and maintain core artistic and administrative personnel 

in a time when such staffs are difficult to retain. With an 

ODP grant, the Carter G. Woodson Foundation in Newark, 

NJ, which presents artists of color throughout the region, 

was able to hire a marketing director and box office manager 

and to completely modernize box office operations. Not only 

did the foundation increase their artists’ bookings, but the 

grant generated considerable revenue for the organization 

through funds generated by memberships, subscriptions and 

contract fees. 

The Services category responds to organizations of regional or national significance that offer support to expansion arts organizations and to artists. In FY ’92, a $22,000 

grant to ATLATL in Phoenix, AZ supported a conference 

that featured artists’ showcases and workshops on marketing, 

exhibiting and other activities. Over I00 Native American 

artists attended. ATLATL offers a program of technical assistance for Native American artists, publishes a newsletter, 

Native-American Update, and coordinates a cultural exhibition service. 

The Rural Arts Initiative also helps small arts organizations become more stable through a regranting partnership 

with State Arts Agencies. The Maine Arts Commission received a matching grant of $40,000, and plans to regrant

SPECIAL PROJECTS 

For special initiatives that will advance 

expansion art forms, are of national significance, and/or can be used as models 

by the whole field. The Arts Education 

Initiative provides funds for a two-year 

project period to cultivate a general 

knowledge, awareness, and appreciation 

of the arts, generally for children in 

grades K-12. The Community 

Foundation Initiative is a collaborative 

effort with local community foundations designed to secure private money 

on a permanent basis for small and 

medium-sized arts groups, with an emphasis on expansion arts organizations. 

The four-year grants from the 

Expansion Arts Program are used to 

subgrant to local arts groups, and the 

community foundation’s match is deposited in a permanent endowment. 

The Rural Arts Initiative awards 

matching grants of up to $40,000 per 

year, available for up to three years to 

state arts agencies for regranting to rural 

arts organizations within their states. 

(For the list of grants, see Underserved 

Communities Set-Aside chapter.) 

The Organizational Development 

Pilot for Presenters, a joint effort of the 

Expansion Arts and Presenting and 

Commissioning Programs, provides 

matching grants of up to $30,000 for 

up to three years to culturally diverse, 

multidisciplinary presenting organizations for institutional enhancement.

Folk Arts
 

169 grants; 2 cooperative agreements
 

Program Funds: $3,181,800
 

The Folk Arts Program supports the traditional arts practiced by 

groups of people who share an ethnic heritage, occupation, language, religion, or geographic area. Its special responsibility is to 

encourage arts that have endured through several generations, 

that carry a sense of community aesthetic, and that embody 

creative excellence. The Program assists and honors men and 

women who demonstrate the highest traditional artistic knowledge and skills. It supports the cultural activities of traditional 

communities. It helps to make the sophistication, vivacity and 

significance of our multicultural heritage available to wider 

audiences. 

T HE FOLK ARTS ARE PROFOUND EXPRESSIONS 

of the values, way of life, and heritage that each 

of us shares with others. Over time, common interests and aesthetic sensibilities that unite us give 

rise to forms of art that speak to our mutuality and that 

often symbolize the group from which they emerge. Thus 

the major "institutions" that sustain the folk arts are social 

ones: family, ethnicity, occupational group, local community, and the like. Investing human and material resources 

in strengthening the folk arts means supporting those forms 

of artistic expression that spring from our own deepest values; it also means investing in the most fundamental bonds 

that give our society both strength and vitality. 

In FY ’92, this Program supported groups reflecting a 

wide cultural diversity and representing a rich variety of efforts to identify, assist, and present their own traditional 

artists and to affirm the ties between artist and community. 

Grants in the Folk Arts Organizations category supported 

such things as local celebrations, exhibits, training programs, 

and artists’ conferences. 

The Old Lincoln County Cowboy Reunion in Glencoe, 

NM brought southern New Mexicans together to celebrate 

the traditional poetry, music, and crafts of their regional 

ranching life. The exhibit "Basket-Trees/Basket Makers," 

displaying various styles of Native American basketry in 

Maine and discussing environmental threats to the natural 

raw materials used in basketmaking, toured sites in rural 

Maine accessible to tribal people. A conference of Native 

American basketweavers, sponsored by the North Columbia 

Schoolhouse in California’s Humboldt County, was the 

largest gathering in memory of artists from many small tribes 

of the region. Together they identified and took action to 

solve many problems of mutual concern, including access to 

basketmaking materials. The dance presenter Jacob’s Pillow 

in Massachusetts organized a residency by Cambodian 

American dancers and musicians from around the nation for 

a week of intense training, rehearsing, and performing. 

The State Apprenticeship category aims to bolster continuity between generations -- the lifeline of the folk arts. 

This year 28 grants were awarded by the Endowment to 

state-based apprenticeship programs which in turn offer apprenticeship funding opportunities throughout their states. 

From Alaska to Mississippi and from Montana to Texas, 

hundreds of journeyman-level practitioners were given the 

chance to spend a period of time in dose, one-on-one study 

with a master of their traditional art form. 

Another major concern of the Program is to give all 

Americans access to the magnificently varied forms of traditional artistic expression found throughout the United 

States. Discovering each other’s time-honored forms of art 

provides challenging and stimulating experiences that both 

open new avenues of thought and creativity and invite us 

to value our diversity. To invest in opportunities that expand our capacity to understand one another is to invest in 

the social fabric and creative potential of our nation. 

The National Folk Festival in Johnstown, PA continued 

to attract audiences of over 100,000. More than 200,000 

people attended the Lowell (Massachusetts) Folk Festival, a 

record number for any folk event. An innovative "tent tour" 

organized by the Centrum Foundation in Washington state 

presented local and national folk musicians -- Anglo, 

African American, Louisiana Creole, and Mexican American 

-- under a tent-sheltered mobile stage in rural sites where 

such performances were otherwise unavailable. The 

Tennessee Banjo Institute, sponsored by the Old Time 

Music and Dance Foundation, attracted accomplished banjo 

players from many parts of the country. 

The 1992 recipients of the National Heritage Fellowship 

award were a vivid embodiment of the diverse nature of 

American culture and the high level of accomplishment attained by traditional artists of many backgrounds. The relatively modest investment in these fellowships has paid off 

many times over in the national attention and tribute given 

to these distinguished traditional masters, many ofwh0m 

otherwise might have gone unrecognized and unrewarded 

for their contributions to our nation’s cultural life.

Program Funds: $4,606,766*
 

*Includes $985 in girl funds. 

The Literature Program provides a link between writers and 

readers, encourages wider audiences for contemporary literature, 

helps support nonprofit publishers and organizations that foster 

literature as a professional pursuit, and assists individual creative writers of excellence or promise. 

E

ACH YEAR THE ARTS ENDOWMENT INVESTS 

in the cultivation of America’s finest contemporary 

creative writing. About half of the Literature 

Program’s funds supports Fellowships for Creative 

Writers and Translation Projects. This Program has become 

the single largest source for writers’ grants in the nation. For 

the writers, these fellowships allow them to set aside time for 

writing, research, or other activities that advance their careers. 

In 1992, funds were available to award 90 grants of 

$20,000 each to writers of poetry and prose. Since 1966, 

the Program has awarded more than 1700 fellowships to 

American writers and has had a tremendous impact on 

contemporary letters. As applications and accompanying 

manuscripts are judged by a "blind" review process, writers 

reflecting all facets of our pluralistic society have received 

fellowships, often in the early stages of their careers. 

In 1991 the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry, the Bobbitt Prize at 

the Library of Congress, and the National Book Awards in 

both Poetry and Fiction went to writers who previously received Endowment fellowships. Some 75 percent of National 

Book Award nominees in 1991 and 1992 were former 

Endowment fellows as well. 

Six grants of $10,000 and two of $20,000 were awarded 

for translation projects from other languages into English. 

In our increasingly diverse nation, translation project 

grants have become a timely cultural investment. Grants to 

translators advance specific projects, such as the award to 

Howard Goldblatt to support the translation from the 

Chinese of Red Sorghum: A Family Saga, a novel by Mo 

Yan (b. 1956), and that to Christopher Sawyer-Laucanno 

to support the translation from the Spanish of Sobre los 

Angeles, a book of poems by Raphael Alberti (b. 1902). 

Approximately one quarter of the Literature Program 

budget supports Literary Publishing grants to nonprofit 

magazines, small presses and the distribution networks that 

link these publications to audiences across America. This 

year 39 grants to literary magazines were awarded totalling 

$335,930. Thirty-one small presses were awarded grants totalling $758,000. Five distributors and wholesalers that send 

these publications to bookstores, schools, libraries and individuals were awarded grants totalling $159,500. These 

grants enable the Endowment to support a wide variety of 

styles and genres reflecting the American experience. 

Arte Publico Press, the premier publisher of Hispanic 

Literature in North America, acquired rights to Victor 

Villasenor’s Rain of Gold, after a major commercial publisher 

wanted to limit content deemed too Spanish for American 

readers. In Arte Publico’s hands, the acclaimed saga of the 

Villasenor family sold nearly 20,000 hardcover copies, was 

picked up by the Literary Guild Book Club, had paperback 

rights awarded here and in several foreign countries, and garnered numerous awards. Popular demand led Milkweed 

Editions to issue a second printing of Bapsi Sidhwa’s 

Cracking India after The New York Times Book Review 

chose it as a Notable Book for the year; Milkweed discovered 

the manuscript after trade publishers failed to recognize its 

potential. Milkweed’s ongoing success includes the recent 

release ofBapsi Sidhwa’s well-received The Crow Eaters and 

her forthcoming American Brat. Time and time again small 

presses exhibit a sensitivity to the American public that commercial publishers cannot address. 

Audience Development grants link writers and readers, 

either in reading series and residencies or through electronic 

media such as audio and video tapes. Community-based 

literary centers such as The Loft, Inc. in Minnesota, Just 

Buffalo in New York state, and Woodland Pattern in Wisconsin endeavor to develop audiences for contemporary 

writing in underserved areas. A total of $442,806 was 

awarded to 40 grantees. 

The Endowment rewards innovative outreach as demonstrated by the wide variety of grants in this category: Elders 

Share the Arts brings quality literature to the elderly in 

Brooklyn, NY through readings and "hands on" workshops; 

Thurber House in Columbus, OH offers Saturday morning 

writing classes for children as a viable alternative to cartoons; 

Hellgate Writers sponsors tours by Montana writers in rural 

communities throughout the state. Each grant awarded contributes to the category’s overall mission: to expose culturally 

diverse audiences to living writers, invite community outreach, offer opportunities for educational impact, and explore new technologies for the preservation and dissemination of important literature. 

Professional Development grants fund literary service organizations for projects of national significance to the field. In 

FY 1992, 17 grants were awarded totalling $741,045. 

8~, National Endowment for theArts 
Colorful ,Ttreetfare Journal posters offer original poeby and graphics to ten million alders a day on 

buses in cities across America. The audience development project, conducted by Intersection of San 

Francisco, began eight years ago and has introduced many readers to contemporary poems.

The Media Arts program encourages the creativi{y of individual 

artists working in film, television and radio. It assists organizations that bring the work of these artists to the public through 

exhibition and broadeast, as well as organizations that preserve 

such work. It also provides nationwide access to the best of all 

the performing arts through support of programs on public radio 

and public television. 

T HIS YEAR, THE MEDIA PROGRAM’S ARTS ON 

Television category made several new investments, including a series on African American 

artists, a series on the blues, a series on the history of jazz. The Arts on Radio category funded two new series: "Jazz from Lincoln Center" and "Folk Masters from 

Wolf trap." 

All this was in addition to the steady and cumulative 

commitment of the Program to such on-going series as 

"American Playhouse," "Alive TV," "P.O.V." (Point of 

View), "Live from Lincoln Center," and "The Metropolitan 

Opera Presents." These series constitute the single greatest 

opportunity the Endowment provides for every citizen to lay 

claim to the birthright of learning how the arts define and 

confirm new facets of our potential, query our assumptions 

and sublimate our fears and desires. Through these processes 

the texture of our culture is renovated and strengthened. 

Several milestones were passed in 1992. "Great Performances," the television magazine of the performing arts, celebrated its 20th anniversary. Jac Venza, the series executive 

producer, was able to call on a galaxy of talents whose 

confidence had been earned over the years -- Mikhail 

Baryishnikov, Twyla Tharp, Wendy Wasserstein, Meryl 

Streep, Bernadette Peters, Bill Irwin, Blythe Danner, Peter 

Martins, Matthew Broderick, and Quincy Jones. Through 

"Great Performances" broadcasts, millions were afforded access to the best art this country can produce -- from a documentary featuring the soprano Kathleen Battle and trumpet 

player Wynton Marsalis rehearsing the music of Scarlatti, 

Handel, and Bach to La Pastorela, the traditional shepherd’s 

play performed by El Teatro Campesino and directed for 

television by Luis Valdez. 

This year saw an extraordinary operatic triumph in the 

production -- and telecast -- of John Corrigliano’s Ghosts of 

Versailles, the first opera premiered by the Metropolitan 

Opera in 25 years. A popular and critical triumph, the opera 

extended the 4,000 seats of the Met’s house to nearly 

7,000,000 nationally. 

In 1992 the Arts Corps pilot project was completed as 

eleven graduate student-artists spent six weeks in such places 

as Newport, OR, and Macon, GA, where they developed their 

projects in cooperation with local communities. A student at 

the American Film Institute journeyed to Kodiak, AK, where 

she worked with immigrant communities and taught Native 

American teenagers the craft of documentary radio production 

(an indispensable mode of communication between Alaska’s 

far-flung villages). A student from the School of the Art 

Institute of Chicago went to Georgetown, SC, to teach community workshops and begin producing a fdm of local oral 

histories. The Arts Corps project was administered for the 

Endowment by the National Assembly of Local Arts Agencies, 

which has a membership of 3,000 organizations. 

With the cosponsorship of corporate and private funders, 

the ground-breaking childrens’ series "Behind the Scenes" 

finally reached broadcast this fall after six years of development. Children on and off the screen became intimate witnesses and participants in the ten programs as such artists as 

Max Roach, David Hockney and Wayne Thiebaud brought 

an artwork from inception to completion. It was hoped that 

this would be a breakthrough series in arts programming for 

children. Judging from the responses of children and critics, 

it was. 

Concerned that the best of radio arts be made available in 

underserved communities, the rural radio initiative helped 

small radio stations purchase from National Public Radio 

and American Public Radio such series as "St. Paul Sunday 

Morning" (classical music); "Afropop Worldwide" (the popular music of the African diaspora); "Crossroads" (a magazine drawn from America’s multiethnic communities); and 

"Soundprint" (the art of the radio documentary). These series are also supported through the Arts on Radio category. 

One of the Media Arts Program’s two longtime priorities 

(along with Arts on Television) has been to encourage the 

development of a support system for media artists throughout the country, thereby encouraging the production of artworks of excellence, which are then exhibited and broadcast. 

To this end, the program supported 90 media arts organizations directly in 23 states, and 50 media organizations indirectly in 26 states. Such indispensable exhibitions as "Two 

Decades of Algerian Cinema" and "Before Hollywood: Turn

of the Century Film From American Archives" are circulated 

through the nonprofit centers to annual audiences of some 

two million. Without these centers, third world films, foreign films as well as independent American films would have 

no organized way of reaching American audiences. 

The flow of new artworks of excellence is stimulated by 

production programs in film/video and radio which partially 

support works in all genres of media art" narrative, documentary and experimental. Investment in these categories has 

proved unusually rewarding. The range of subjects, the generational spread, the variety of approaches and aesthetics give 

each year’s grants a vigorous profile. Among this year’s grants 

were production support for a documentary film by Fred 

Wiseman on the American Ballet Theater and a series of 

short experimental videotapes by Philip Mallory Jones 

exploring traditional African culture. As usual, Film/Video 

Production category projects received wide approval. In the 

Shadaw of the Stars-- funded in 1989 -- won an Academy 

Award in 1992, the second Endowment-funded film in a 

row to receive this honor. (Barbara Kopple’s American 

Dream won an Oscar for best feature-length documentary 

in 1991.)

The Museum Program supports projects of artistic significance in 

the museum fieM. 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 broad range of 

institutions across the country, including universi{y museums 

and regional art centers. 

T HIS YEAR, AS IN THE PAST, THE PROGRAM 

helped art museums and related organizations 

make art an integral part of American cultural 

life. Funds helped museums exhibit art, preserve 

and care for art, and present information about art to the 

public in imaginative and instructive ways utilizing the latest 

research through such media as publications, lectures, films, 

and computer based formats. 

Beyond enhancing the central missions of most art museums, the Endowment looked to the future of the visual arts in 

America. Recognizing that museums depend on trained staff, 

the Museum Program funded student stipends in graduate 

schools of art history and art conservation. It supported internships in curatorial and conservation departments in an effort 

to introduce graduate students to careers in art museums. 

For example, this year a grant was awarded to the Saint 

Louis Art Museum to support a one-year internship in textile 

conservation providing a young trainee with hands-on experience and close supervision by an expert textile conservator in 

this specialized field. Support was given to the Winterthur 

Museum for a one-year internship in museum registration 

providing an intern with instruction in all areas of collections 

management, including care, shipping, and storage of objects. 

The rapidly evolving fields of computer, video, and laser 

technology are transforming the ways in which information 

about works of art and visual images are being gathered, stored 

and retrieved. Ultimately, an art student sitting at a terminal 

will be able to call up a picture and documentary information 

on just about any work of art in an American art museum. It 

can already be done locally for selected holdings of some museums. The Endowment hopes to make certain that a wide 

range of museums, regardless of resources, have an opportuNational Endowment for the Arts

nity to become involved and share in this new technology. 

As an example, a grant was awarded to the Harvard 

University Art Museums to support, as part of the "Perseus 

Project," the production 0fa computerized "catalogue" highlighting ten ancient Greek vase painters from the Museums’ 

collections. The independently funded "Perseus Project" is an 

interactive program that will provide far-flung students and 

scholars with texts on each artist as well as over 2,500 photographic images of the objects and related examples. 

In the same category, a grant was awarded to the 

Mississippi Museum of Art to establish a computerized collections management system. The program, designed to replace 

index card files, contains vital information on each object in 

the collection, including accession number, dimensions, provenance and bibliographic references. Selected information can 

be retrieved instantly by researchers nationwide. 

Museums offer a wide range of educational activities for 

their audiences. The Museum Program’s education support activities help museums share information and teach through 

tours, lectures, written materials, and videos. Grants awarded 

in FY ’92 include one to Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts to expand a program for families with children aged four and older, 

providing materials for self-guided tours of selected collections 

within the Museum. Another grant to the Cincinnati Art 

Museum supported the development of a series of brochures 

that will provide visitors with alternative approaches to understanding works of art in the Museum’s collections, offering 

multiple methods of inquiry and interpretation. 

In addition the Museum Program is helping museums 

work with schools in the development of curriculum related to 

the arts. Education support provided in FY ’92 includes a grant 

to Munson-Williams-Proctor Institute in Ithaca, New York, 

to develop classroom materials for 4th-grade students. These 

materials will link the Museum’s collection of 19th-century 

American art to the study of local historyl A grant to the 

Pierpont Morgan Library to support an arts education program 

for elementary students in New York public schools will 

integrate the study of illuminated manuscripts with study of 

medieval history. 

Exhibitions remain the principal way in which the 

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

the exhibitions funded in FY ’92 were the major retrospective 

of the work of Henri Matisse at the Museum of Modern Art in 

New York City; "The Lure of Italy: American Artists and the 

Italian Experience, 1760-1914" at the Museum of Fine Arts, 

Boston; "Egypt’s Dazzling Sun: Amenhotep III and His 

World," organized by the Cleveland Museum of Art; Camille 

Pissarro’s paintings of urban views presented by the Dallas 

Museum of Art; and retrospectives of the work of contemporary American artists Susan Rothenberg, organized by the 

Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, and Bruce Nauman, 

organized by the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis.

The Music Program assists creative and pe~orming musicians

service organizations of regional and national importance.
 

T HE MUSIC PROGRAM’S PEER REVIEW PANELS 

were scrupulous in their evaluations, adhered 

closely to the published review criteria, and 

based award recommendations on quality rankings, artistic excellence and merit. Panelists were convinced 

that their recommendations represented investments in musical excellence designed to reach diverse American audiences throughout the country as well as audiences abroad in 

many cases. 

Ensemble support included funds to 34 choruses, 187 

symphony orchestras, and 81 chamber and jazz ensembles. 

Reflecting concern for new and future audiences, the ensembles collectively broadened musical awareness and appreciation, especially among young people. Western Wind, 

a vocal ensemble based in New York, received support for 

its concert series and a public school residency program, 

which emphasized multi-cultural vocal repertoire. A grant 

to the Cleveland Orchestra made possible educational concerts for third through eighth grade students and a series of 

daytime concerts, at reduced prices, for adults unable to attend evening concerts. The Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra 

Society received financial assistance for its program for high 

school juniors and seniors. These students received college 

credit for attending a full academic year of subscription concerts and the "June in Buffalo" new music concerts at 

SUNY-Buffalo -- an especially effective effort aimed at 

stimulating musical awareness and appreciation. 

In the area of chamber music, support was offered for 

the planning phase of a Pilot Chamber Music Rural 

Residency Program that would place graduate-level chamber music ensembles in rural areas of Iowa, Kansas, and 

Georgia. At non-conventional venues, well-trained chamber 

musicians would build repertoire; teach children and adults; 

and master the art of communication, both musically and 

verbally. Investing in future choral excellence, the Music 

Program assisted the Illinois-based Glen Ellyn Children’s 

Chorus in its training of a second children’s chorus and its 

frequent workshops and festivals. 

In the area of Presenting and Festivals, the Program supported 218 organizations, based on artistic merit, managerial e~ciency, and outreach efforts. The Program provided 

assistance to "Music at Angel Fire," a New Mexico festival 

that presents concerts, open rehearsals, workshops and outreach concerts in rural Taos, Red River, Mora, and Raton. 

In South Dakota, the Shrine to Music Museum offered historically informed performances of music from the 15th to 

the early 19th centuries, performed on original instruments. 

In California, Mount Saint Mary’s College offered Solo 

Recitalist and Chamber Ensemble performances at sites of 

architectural and historical significance. (The Music 

Program supported 20 of the 80 concerts sponsored by the 

Da Camera Society of Mount Saint Mary’s.) 

Fellowship grants were made to 19 composers, who 

would write works for standard instrumental and vocal ensembles, as well as works for tape and optional live percussion, double bass and tape, and clarinet and interactive 

electronics. One solo recitalist was supported in nationwide 

performances of Hispanic and Latin American compositions. Others participated in residencies in schools, 

churches, retirement communities, hospitals and recreation 

centers. There was continued assistance for a commissioning program to consortia of music organizations for commissioning works in concert music, opera, musical theater, 

and jazz. Administered by Meet the Composer, a service 

organization based in New York, the program guaranteed 

multiple performances following each composition’s 

premiere. 

In the area of jazz, support was provided for the Charlin 

Jazz Society which coordinated jazz activities for the 

Washington Performing Arts Society. All visiting jazz artists 

participated in the Society’s "Jazz in the Schools" program 

in the D.C. public schools. Assistance was also provided for 

the National Jazz Service Organization’s (NJSO) technical 

assistance program, consultant service, national workshops 

and symposia, publication of the NJSO journal, and maintenance of a jazz database. 

During this the eleventh year of the American Jazz 

Masters subcategory, fellowships were awarded to three jazz 

legends: Dorothy Donegan, Betty Carter, and Harry 

"Sweets" Edison. The second public Jazz Masters Awards 

Ceremony Concert was held in conjunction with the 

I46 National Endowment for theArts 
Five great jazz trombonists gather at the University of Idaho’s Uonel Hampton/Chevron Jazz Festival in this 

archival photo: Carl Fontana, AI Grey, Bill Watrous, Curtis Fuller and Delfeayo Marsalis. Receiving a Jazz 

Presenters grant in 1992, its silver anniversary year, the festival attracts 500 competition entries--up from 

fifteen in its first year--and draws audiences from all over the nation to Moscow, ID in February, no less. 

International Association of Jazz Educators’ 19th Annual 

Conference in Miami, FL. 

The Special Projects category continued to accommodate 

a unique variety of unusual efforts. One such project involved 

support to New York-based Parallelodrome, Ltd. in its efforts 

at commemorating the bicentennial of the birth of the black 

American composer, performer, and orchestra leader Francis 

"Frank" Johnson (1792-1844), believed to be a native of 

Philadelphia. Endowment funds assisted the organization 

with its presentation of Johnson exhibits and concerts 

throughout Philadelphia and educational activities and performances of Johnson’s music (over 200 published compositions) in association with the School District of Philadelphia. 

Another Special Projects grant supported a four-part program of the Montgomery (AL) Symphony Association that 

was designed to improve performance skills of the current 

volunteer amateur orchestra through professional training 

opportunities. Still another Special Projects grant supported 

the Louisville (KY) Orchestra’s "Sound Celebration II," a 

ten-day international contemporary music festival that 

brought together composers, performers, musicologists, and 

cultural leaders from 52 countries. This festival focused attention on an emerging musical language that results from 

melding aesthetic elements from diverse cultures.

*Includes $282,000 not obligated in FY ’92. 

This Program affords the public greater access to and participation in the many manifestations of opera-musical theater. To 

this end the Program supports organizations and individuals as
 

they carry out projects of artistic excellence in the various genres
 

and disciplines involved in traditional opera, the Broadway
 

musical and still-evolvingforms of music theater. The Program
 

encourages the broadening of both the concept and canon of
 

opera-musical theater through the creation, development, and
 

production of new and seldom-produced American works. It
 

supports innovative education and outreach activities, including
 

the training and development of artists and administrators.

ensure the future of opera-musical theater in 

America, this Program has sought ways to reconnect with a 

broader segment of today’s public.

more inclusive arts education-- on all levels -- for artists, 

administrators, and audiences. As one example, in a grassroots initiative that challenges the notion of opera as an elitist art, Santa Fe’s Pueblo Opera involves some 2,000 Native 

American youths and adults in learning about and experiencing opera. Similarly, last year the Program helped Opera 

Memphis, Michigan Opera and Opera Carolina give economically-deprived students in rural and urban schools 

hands-on experience in creating and producing an opera. 

Among professional training programs supported by 

grants in the Services to the Art category was the Musical 

Theater Works Conservatory in New York City. This program trains young professionals in all aspects of musical theater performance -- singing, dancing, acting and auditioning -- as well as in the practical realities of the musical 

theater business. A grant to the service organization OPERA 

America supported a twelve-month opera administration 

fellowship program, which assigns fellows to three different 

opera companies where they participate in administrative, 

artistic, and technical activities. 

With the inevitable demographic transformation of 

American audiences, the New American Works category 

continues to advance the creation and production of works 

that reflect our multicultural society. A grant to Cultural 

Odyssey in San Francisco supported a piece titled Emergency 

194 National Endowment for the Arts 

Report, in which African American artists combined rockand-roll and jazz to examine contemporary social issues affecting the nation’s African American population. 

The North Carolina string band, The Red Clay 

Ramblers, was funded for a new work based on the travels of 

explorers Lewis and Clark, John Wesley Powell, and 

Zebulon Pike, combining American ballads, folk styles from 

both the old and new worlds, and Native American sounds 

with "modern" music. Folk musician Bob Zentz and lyricist 

Ann Goette’s new work for the Virginia Opera, based on the 

life of Virginia street musician, "Ramblin’" Conrad, will 

bring opera to residents of rural Virginia. 

Dissemination of information within the field is supported by a grant to the Goodspeed Opera House of East 

Haddam, CT, for its Library of Music Theater and Show 

Music magazine. Together, the Library through the preservation and acquisition of archival materials, and the magazine 

through the dissemination of historical and current information, will strengthen networks within the musical theater 

community and encourage artistic growth. Published quarterly, Show Music has a subscriber base of 4,000 historians 

and music theater professionals in 49 states and 19 foreign 

countries. 

In the Professional Companies category, the Program has 

maintained its support of emerging opera-musical theater 

companies, which are responsible for some of the field’s 

most promising activities. For instance, Tulsa Opera has 

earned a reputation for provocative interpretations of standard works like La Traviata, which was subsequently remounted at the New York City Opera. Tulsa also has successfully produced rarely performed operas such as Rossini’s 

Armida~ Under new artistic leadership, Utah Opera is embarking on a major initiative to establish a regional artist 

training program, part of a long-term effort to bring artistic 

excellence in opera production in the Southwest. Casa 

Manana Musicals in Fort Worth reaches more than 250,000 

students and adults with year-round musical theater productions, and in-school and outreach activities. 

As the nation moves into the next century, the OperaMusiCal Theater Program, in partnership with the field, has 

begun to reexamine accepted artistic and organizational 

structures that affect the delivery of the art form. The longterm goal is to re-envision a performing art that will once 

again be rooted in the community.

Like its predecessor, Inter-Arts, the Presenting and 

Commissidning Program assists institutions that serve multiple 

artistic disciplines: presenting organizations, artists’communities and presenter service organizations. The Program also supports projects involving interdisciplinary artists and collaborations of artists jqom different disciplines. 

T HROUGHOUT 1991, INTER-ARTS PROGRAM 

staffmet with hundreds of artists, presenters, and 

representatives of service organizations to gather 

their views concerning the development of a new 

program focused on presenting the performing arts and the 

commissioning of new work. Ongoing consultation with a 

wide range of constituents led to an unprecedented consolidation of presenting support areas. Following a formal announcement to the field and distribution of new guidelines 

at the Association of Performing Arts Presenters’ Conference 

in December 1991, Inter-Arts became the Presenting and 

Commissioning Program in January 1992. 

The Program’s FY ’92 grantees presented a remarkable 

body of work, seen by audiences comprising more than five 

million people throughout the nation. Program funds in the 

Presenting Organizations category supported the presentation of artists such as David Parsons, Urban Bush Women, 

and Paul Dresher in their Wisconsin premieres. The 

Midnite Rambler and Global Visions series at the Kentucky 

Center for the Arts benefitted from the investment of program dollars, as did the Taos Art Association’s plan to bring 

the Eugene Ballet Company from Oregon to New Mexico 

to perform a work based on legends of Pacific Northwest 

Coast natives. Mternate ROOTS in Atlanta used funds from 

the Services to Presenting Organizations category to mount 

a week-long symposium for arts presenters and performing 

artists on artists’ residencies as a mechanism for audience development and education. 

New work produced with the support of project-specific 

grants often resulted in public presentation, enriching the 

repertory available to presenting organizations and expanding participation in and appreciation of the performing arts 

in diverse communities. Pooling their resources with funding support from this Program, presenters and artists built 

partnerships throughout the year which paid impressive 

aesthetic dividends. For instance, the Partnerships in

~99z Annual Report :~II 
Presenting & Commissioning
 

Commissioning category supported eight projects providing 

activity in over twenty communities throughout the United 

States. A partnership developed among the Los Angeles 

Festival, the National Black Dance Festival of Atlanta, 

Dayton Contemporary Dance Company (DCDC), and Cal 

Performances at the University of California, Berkeley led to 

the creation and presentation of a new work featuring 

DCDC, along with a capella singing group Sweet Honey in 

the Rock, and choreographer Diane Mclntyre. 

The United States has been a center for the development 

of innovative interdisciplinary art projects since the 1940s. 

This year Interdisciplinary Projects grants featured several exo 

traordinary cross-cultural collaborations, an important trend 

in new American arts experiments. Some artists reexamine 

critical periods of history, fusing artistic and social commentary in a cohesive whole. For example, a grant to the 

National Asian American Telecommunications Association 

will support Paul Kwan’s "A Wok In Progress," the story of a 

Vietnamese-American immigrant whose immersion in 

American art becomes the means by which he reinterprets his 

own cultural traditions in a new land. 

The Artists’ Projects Regional Initiative is designed to 

support emerging or lesser-known artists throughout the nation whose projects involve the creation of original work that 

extends or explores artistic forms. This initiative, a public/ 

private partnership, invests funds from The Rockefeller 

Foundation and the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual 

Arts along with Arts Endowment dollars in innovative work, 

with consideration given to regional and cultural contexts. In 

1992, Endowment funds were channelled through thirteen 

regrant organizations and provided opportunities for artists and audiences in 50 states, the 

District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. 

Artists’ communities provide the time, 

space, materials, and environment that help 

artists to create new work. The Program’s investment in twelve communities in 1992 contributed to residencies for more than 1500 

artists. In addition, a 1992 grant assisted the 

development of the National Consortium of 

Artists’ Communities. This organization is designed to enrich services for individual community sites, increase impact on individual 

artists, and strengthen resources and communication in the field. 

The Program’s Special Projects category 

supports model projects and initiatives of 

national impact which advance professional 

performing artists and/or presenting organizations. Among the projects funded in this area, 

the Program supported the New Jerseyobased 

Carter G. Woodson Foundation’s "Black 

Culture On Tour in America" showcase and 

workshop. This activity brings together presenters, managers, companies, and solo artists 

to evaluate the touring and presenting of 

African American performing artists. The 

Special Projects area, in collaboration with 

the International Office, also supported 

the British American Arts Association’s 

Advanced Administrator Training Institute. 

Appalshop’s rustic Roadside Theater performers Tommy Bledsoe, Ron Short and The Institute provides two-week residencies 

Angelyn DeBord leave Kentucky for points as far north as Maine where they are for ten American arts presenters at sites throughsponsored by another P&C grantee, LA Arts. out Great Britain.

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, directors, 

designers and poformers. Finally, the program assists service 

organizations that provide support in such essentials as publications, conservatory training and management resources. 

AFTER 27 YEARS OF NURTURING AMERICAN 

theater, our efforts are bearing colorful and varied 

fruits. The Theater Program now provides support for 236 theaters around the country through 

the Professional Theater Companies category, which accounts 

for almost 80 percent of the Program’s allocation. Today, our 

panels still support the first generation of theaters while providing significant assistance to the second and third generations of theaters. Despite hard choices, the panels continue to 

be indusive, making the Professional Theater Companies category a "big tent" indeed. American theater is growing and 

evoMng with truly great work being created in the process. 

The professional companies supported by the Theater 

Program dot the landscape from Honolulu to Hartford and 

from San Juan to San Francisco. Including small companies, 

ensembles, mid-size troupes and large institutional theaters, 

they are as diverse as the communities they serve. 

One example is Ping Chong and Company, working out 

of New York, a small ensemble-based company whose aesthetic is at once lyrical, highly visual, movement-based and 

textual. Ping Chong’s works, Nosferatu and American Gothic, 

project his unique vision which has been embraced by audiences and critics alike. The company has established rapport 

with audiences around the country and across the seas in 

France, where they performed at the Festival of Art from 

America held in Cergy-Pontoise. 

Another example is the collaboration between the 

artistic directors of Metro Theater Company in St. Louis, 

Childsplay, Inc. in Tempe, Arizona, and playwright Suzan 

Zeder of the University of Texas at Austin. Together they 

created The Yellow Boat, a drama that testifies to the ability 

of the creative process to heal. Based on the death of the 

playwright’s hemophiliac son from AIDS, The Yellow Boat 

2.34 National Endowment for theArts 

celebrates the life of a child through story, song, striking visual images, and color. The young hero in this story used his 

art, a series of drawings, to express his experiences with illness, doctors, hospitals, schools and friends. In the production, his drawings become the metaphor for his life and the 

challenging journey he sails on The Yellow Boat. Audiences 

young and old in Missouri, Arizona, Texas and Florida have 

been touched by this drama. 

Similarly our Artistic Advancement/Special Projects for 

Organizations category offers the opportunity to invest in 

projects of artistic significance that are outside the scope of an 

organization’s ordinary activity. The projects funded in this 

category would not have been undertaken without this investment. Last year’s panel enthusiastically supported a special projects grant for Alternative ROOTS, an Adanta-based 

membership service organization that provides workshops, 

conferences, touting opportunities and technical assistance to 

artists and performing arts organizations in the Southeast. 

In this project, Alternative ROOTS set out to publish 

an anthology of seven plays by contemporary Southeastern 

playwrights. Also included in the anthology will be prefaces 

by the playwrights and full production histories, as well as 

commissioned essays addressing issues of regionally specific 

work and their place in a national literary context. The 

Theater Program’s investment will allow for the anthology 

to be promoted and distributed nationally. Through this 

project, southern playwrights may overcome artistic isolation 

and find a broader audience and new production opportunities. This may well be the first such anthology of southern 

plays. 

Finally, the Theater Program continues to invest in the 

development of individual artists through the Support to 

Individuals/Fellowships for Playwrights category, the 

Program’s oldest source of assistance for the individual artist. 

Last year fellowships went to Philip Kan Gotanda and Suzan 

Zeder. Mr. Gotanda’s plays such as Yankee Dawg You Die, 

The Wash and Fish Head Soup-- mainstays for Asian 

American theaters -- have crossed over to mainstream 

stages. Ms. Zeder writes about children because she is fascinated by them as viable and vibrant dramatic characters. 

Her plays such as Step on a Crack, Mother Hicks and The 

Death and Life of Sherlock Holmes, have been performed 

around the country to theater lovers of all ages.

Visual Arts
 

270 grants; 6 cooperative agreements
 

Program Funds: $5,583,625
 

The Visual Arts Program funds the creation of new work by
 

American artists of proven talent and supports the presentation
 

of new works 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.
 

MUCH OF THE HISTORY OF ART IS THE 

record of individual artists over the centuries 

who have created something new or stylistically different from the art that then existed. 

In short, art history is the record of invention and innovation 

by individuals. This Program’s grants and fellowships serve as 

investments in experimentation and the creation of new art 

forms by today’s artists of merit working in a wid.e spectrum 

of styles and media. In addition, the Program provides opportunities for the public to have access to such new works of art 

and to the ideas ofcontemporaty artists. It does this by investing in public art projects, in the activities of artist-run organizations, in forums for discussion of visual art issues, and in 

other exemplary special projects. 

Visual Artists Fellowships are the Program’s first priority. 

Fellowships are awarded in a repeating two-year cycle to 

painters, sculptors, photographers, crafts artists, printmakers, 

drawing artists, conceptual artists, and visual artists working in 

video and performance. In FY ’92, the Program received 

5,240 applications from artists all across the country, and it 

awarded 71 fellowships of $20,000 each to artists in every region. These fellowships, awarded to professional artists of exceptional talent and demonstrated ability, supported these individuals’ creative development by providing financial means 

to sustain them while they pursue their work. This year, fellowships went to artists working in photographyand crafts. 

Regional Fellowships complement the national program. 

In FY ’92, six regional organizations received grants of 

$250,000 to $300,000 each. Most of these organizations will 

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

working in the areas of photography, sculpture, and crafts 

during 1993. 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 are matched one-to-one by 

each region. 

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, 

and offer a range of artists’ services. These alternatives to museums and commercial galleries exist in major cities and in 

mid-sized communities such as Omaha, Syracuse, El Paso, 

and Sacramento. Characteristically, these groups were 

founded by artists and are run by artists with strong support 

from their communities. 

In many cities, VAOs exist as the primary showcase for 

contemporary work. Besides exhibiting current work by artists 

living in any area, many arrange exchange shows with organizations from other regions, thereby exposing audiences to new 

work from outside their own communities. Particularly in 

crafts, photography, and printmaking, some VAOs provide 

artists with access to equipment that is prohibitively expensive 

for individual owners. Many of the organizations also conduct 

educational outreach programs with local schools. 

Visual Artists Forums promote discourse about the visual 

arts and are a crucial venue for outreach to the American public. Many lecture series at colleges and universities are supported, as well as nonprofit publications that discuss issues in 

contemporary art. Particularly important to rural campuses 

and colleges beyond major cities, visiting artist programs were 

supported in Gainesville, FL; Bozeman, MT; and Ogden, 

UT. An innovative approach to expand the traditional concept of the public forum through satdlite broadcast was 

funded through Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, 

New York. Broadcasts were carried by more than 24 universities nationwide and provided for live discussion between 

artists and a national audience. Publications that cover regional visual arts events received grants in the Upper Midwest 

(Artpaper), the Northwest (Reflex), the Central South 

(Number), and the Southeast (Art Paper and Artvu). 

Art in Public Places projects were supported in a wide 

range of communities and sites this year. They included the 

design of temporary billboards in Detroit with an anti-drug 

message; a memorial in Salem, MA, to those who were executed during the 1692 witch trials; the final stage ofa Zuni 

kachina murals project on the interior walls of a restored 

17th-century mission in Zuni, NM; and the creation of sitespecific works in the public areas around Cleveland’s new 

sports complex. Endowment funds generally account for only 

a fraction of a project’s total costs; most of the fundraising for 

public art projects is done at the local level. 

National Endowment for the Arts 
MarCo Gonzalez, first known as a graff’~i artist, paints an ephemeral man on a wall at the Randolph Street Gallery
 

for the show, Re-lmaginingAmerfca. The Chicago gallery received one of the 130 grants awarded to visual artists organizations.

VISUAL ARTISTS FELLOWSHIPS 

Fellowships were awarded in 1992 to 

artists working in photography and 

crafts. Sculpture fellowships were not 

awarded as the panel suspended its deliberations before completing application review. In 1993, fellowships will 

be offered to artists working in other 

genres, painting, and works on paper. 

Regional Fellowships are administered 

by regional arts organizations through

Total Funds: $17,914,574 

Challenge Funds: $17,644,610" 

Program Funds: $ 269,964 

The Challenge IIl Program stimulates support for projects of the 

highest quali~y that move the nation forward in achieving excellence in the arts, improving access to the arts or augmenting appreciation of the arts. Since most cultural organizations must devote available resources to operations, there is a critical need for 

"venture capital" to underwrite bold projects. The Challenge III 

Program, initiated in 1989, has provided such capital and enabled institutions in each field served by the Endowment to undertake new strategies for implementing artistic programming. 

CHALLENGE III APPLICATIONS ARE REVIEWED 

on the basis of the quality and potential longterm impact of the proposed project, as well as 

on the ability of the applicant to carry it out 

and raise the required matching funds. Grants range in size 

from $50,000 to $1 million and must be matched at least 

three-to-one with new or 

increased contributions or 

appropriations. 

This year 40 projects re ...... ~

across the nation, through its new Summer Dance Program 

and annual festival showcase. Film/Video Arts will offer paid 

residencies to distinguished media artists from all parts of the 

country. 

Some grantees have projects that are both national and 

international in scope. A grant to Dancing in the Streets, a 

national group that sponsors performances in public space 

for audiences in many cities, will initiate an international 

commissioning fund. Another grant will enable the 

American Academy in Rome to offer fellowships to 

American citizens for the study of historic preservation and 

conservation in Rome. 

Other grants reflect the 

great diversity of ideas and 

plans developed by arts organizations in different parts of 

the country. Some examples: 

 ̄ Crossroads Theatre 

Company in New Brunswick, 

New Jersey will initiate a 

model program to offer nationally significant black theater artists honoraria a~nd an 

artistic home to serve as a creMidwest. A Challenge Grant helped the Actor’s Theatre ative laboratory.

Monk-- by recreating and restoring the works of the 

former and allowing the latter to create large-scale 

interdisciplinary works.

The Advancement Program assists emerging arts organizations 

of the highest caliber improve managerial and financial stability. Since its start in 1983, the Program has made an invaluable investment in America’s cultural future by helping over 

300 organizations J~om 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~om which new institutions may grow. Survival 

and stabilization are becoming ever-greater challenges for 

emerging nonprofit arts organizations. For almost a decade, the 

Advancement Program has helped such groups develop solid organizational foundations in order to pursue their artistic visions. These nine years of support and encouragement represent 

one of the Endowment’s most valuable investments in America 

and its cultural future. 

T HE PROGRAM PROVIDES ORGANIZATIONAL 

support in two phases. In Phase I, a year of technical assistance and long range planning, management experts retained by the Endowment 

provide on-site consultancies to help grantees eliminate 

management deficiencies and take well-planned steps 

toward long-range goals. These consultancies are tailored 

to each organization. In Phase II, grantees apply for grants 

of up to $75,000 to support the strategies developed 

during Phase I. These funds must be matched at least 

three-to-one. 

In 1992, applications for Phase I were accepted in the 

fields of dance, expansion arts, folk arts, literature, media 

arts, opera-musical theater, and visual arts. Concurrently, 

Phase II grants were awarded to organizations in the same 

fields, which completed the technical assistance phase the 

previous year. (Arts disciplines are eligible for Advancement 

support on an every-other-year basis.) 

Advancement assists an extraordinary range of organizations, always tailoring assistance and planning to the identity 

and needs of each arts group. For example, E1 Teatro 

Campesino (ETC) in San Juan Bautista, CA, has earned a 

+ Cooperative agreements.
 

*This figure includes $2,245,000 in funds awarded in FY "92,
 

$158,636 in unobligated FY ’92 commitments which will appear in
 

subsequent annual reports as the funds are obligated, and $469,509 in
 

FY ’92funds obligated to previous year grants.

national reputation as a producer of diverse works that set 

the standard for contemporary Chicano/Latino theatrical 

production. ETC also presents other companies whose work 

speaks to a broad community. 

ETC recently began expanding into filmmaking with 

ventures such as La Bamba and Zoot Suit as well as La 

Pastorella, created for public television’s "Great Performances" series. But this small company with six employees 

found itself in urgent need of help in managing organizational and personnel issues related to increased demands for 

touring productions as well as its new filmmaking. ETC 

began Phase I in 1992 to help develop strategies to manage 

its growth in these exciting new programming areas. 

At the other end of the institutional scale, the North 

Carolina State University Arts Programs in Raleigh completed technical assistance in F¥ ’92. NCSU’s combined arts 

programs constituted eight previously unconnected areas in 

both the performing and visual arts, for students and nonstudents alike, both locally and regionally. Their Advancement 

project began the demanding task of linking the separate 

programs to help them more efficiently serve their diverse 

constituencies. Technical assistance and long-range planning 

services concentrated on developing mechanisms for interprogram coordination, joint budgeting and planning, and 

collaborative fundraising and marketing. The unusual longrange plan resulting from Phase I participation -- in essence, 

eight separate but interconnected plans -- is a vital document that will guide the university’s arts programming into 

the next century. 

Also this year in Oregon, Portland’s Interstate Firehouse 

Cultural Center (IFCC) received a $65,000 grant to upgrade 

its professional services to local artists; improve its facility; 

and develop new multilingual promotional materials. A community-based arts center, IFCC is devoted to the work of visual and performing artists from many backgrounds. While 

its programming includes such national projects as presenting the Smithsonian Institution’s "Field to Factory" exhibition, the center is primarily pledged to serving local artists, a 

mission it will be better able to fulfill thanks to 

Advancement. 

In FY ’92, DiverseWorks of Houston received a $75,000 

grant to implement elements of the three-year plan developed 

in Phase I. DiverseWorks is the only large, artist-run multidisciplinary arts organization in Texas and one of only thirteen 

organizations in the country administering the New Forms 

Regional Grants Initiative for visual artists sponsored by the 

Endowment and Rockefeller Foundation. Living up to its 

name, DiverseWorks is the producer of a reading series featuring local and national writers, and a presenter of dance 

performances as a member of the National Performance 

Network. DW’s Advancement grant will be used to improve 

documentation of exhibitions; audience development, and 

partial compensation for staff, induding health insurance, 

which is critically important in encouraging staff stability. 

"Celebrating Our Musical Heritage," an annual event in rustic Virginia mountains, is staged by the 

William King Regional Arts Center, a Phase i Advancement participant.

85 grants; 20 cooperative agreements; 3 interagency agreements

*Includes $150,000 in gift funds. 

The Arts in Education Program has a broad mandate to provide 

national leadership in making the arts basic to education f?om 

prekindergarten through 12th grade. The Program pursues this 

by offering both funding support and leadership initiatives to a 

diverse constituency that includes state arts agencies (SAAs), am 

groups, education organizations, artists, teachers, administrators, 

parents and policymakers. 

T HIS YEAR THE ARTS IN EDUCATION PROGRAM 

developed a four-part approach to arts education 

support. 

Grants in the Arts Education Partnership category supported 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 prekindergarten through 12th grade, 

and to make the arts a basic part of education at every grade 

level. 

A cornerstone of the states’ efforts is the artist residency 

program. During the 1990/91 school year more than 13,000 

artists in all fields reached about 4 million students, teachers 

and administrators. The SAAs ensure that quality artists 

work in the schools, often enhancing what arts specialists or 

general classroom teachers teach. Other components of these 

programs include teacher in-service workshops; materials, 

conferences and programs to encourage local arts education 

planning; and model sites that develop curricula and instructional strategies. The SAAs work in partnership with state 

and local education agendes, arts organizations, businesses 

and others to develop and implement arts education programs tailored to the needs of each state. 

For example, the Montana Arts Council used Arts in 

Education funds to organize a six-county consortium in remote southeastern Montana to employ a fulltime artist in 

residence for the entire school year. The SAA’s arts education 

program is also helping five low-power television stations 

work with artists in residence in local schools and commuo 

nity groups to develop locally produced programming for 

broadcast. J 

In Alaska, the State Coundl on the Arts found that many 

schools offer informal Native Arts education by hiring local 

artists and integrating Native Arts into Alaskan study units.

Arts in Education
 

A committee of artists, teachers, administrators and parents is 

now discussing development of a comprehensive Native Arts 

curriculum that would encompass the five main Native 

groups of the state. 

In New Mexico, the Program helped the state Arts 

Division bring together artists and sponsors for workshops 

and the opportunity to prepare collaborative projects. 

Workshop sessions focus on curriculum integration for sponsors and educational methodology for artists. 

The Collaboration Initiatives category supports leadership 

efforts in arts education and education reform that help further the arts as a basic part of education. These leadership activities 

involve arts education research, student assessment in the arts, development of voluntary world-class 

standards in the arts, and the national recognition of teachers of the 

arts. It also invests in projects that 

increase access to performing arts 

and cultural organizations, and that 

facilitate collaborative efforts between educators and arts professionals to help develop sustained, 

in-school arts curriculum programs. 

There are three subcategories: Arts 

Plus, Program Collaborations and 

Special Project Initiatives. 

Three-year Arts Plus awards 

help arts organizations develop collaborations and enter into longterm partnerships with schools to 

integrate the arts into the curricula. 

this year to support projects that address specific arts education efforts within a fidd or that involve several disciplines. 

These projects are developed within the Endowment’s discipline programs, with support from AIE. For example, Dance 

USA established a nationwide Task Force on Dance 

Education to examine and document the critical issues in 

dance education as well as exemplary models in dance learning 

for children and adults. A planned publication will include 

profiles of effective programs and recommendations for future 

dance education efforts. Elsewhere, the Oregon Council of 

Teachers of English is publishing the poetry and prose of contemporary Oregon writers. The anthologies will be used in schools, in 

some cases with the writers as 

artists in residence. 

The third subcategory, Special 

Project Initiatives, supports longrange 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 ofvol­

~ untary national standards in the 

~o arts. The standards project, sup­

~ ported in partnership with the 

National Endowment for the

For example, the Chicago 

Moving Company (CMC) is working with two inner-city 

Chicago public schools in which most students are at-risk. 

The project will expand CMC’s successful residency program 

which includes teacher training, curriculum development, 

evaluation and community involvement. In Kentucky, Stage 

One: The Louisville Children’s Theater is collaborating with 

the Kentucky Cabinet for Education and the Humanities to 

work in three county school districts to integrate theater into 

primary and middle schools. Teacher and artist training and 

curriculum development are at the center of this project. 

The Program Collaborations subcategory was developed 

National Endowment for the Arts 

and skills, and the creation of a 

national arts education research agenda in parmership with 

the Department of Education. Investing in teachers of the 

arts is investing in the future of our children. The fellowship 

program, developed and implemented by the Council for 

Basic Education, awarded 29 fellowships in the first year for 

summer study. Fellowships involved baskets and basket makers of southern Appalachia, research on folk art traditions associated with the Indo-Hispanic celebration "El Dia de los 

Muertos," and the study of pueblo pottery which resulted in a 

curriculum for secondary schools that includes history as well 

as production.

Local Arts Agencie."
 

35 grants; 5 cooperative agreements 

Program Funds: $2,419,946 

The Local Arts Agencies Program OCormerly the Locals Program) 

focuses on effective methods to strengthen a national support ,ystem for local cultural development. The Program helps communities affirm authentic and inclusive priorities. Also, it seeks to 

increase the level of citizen involvement in the cultural affairs of 

their communities. 

J UST AS CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE HAVE HELPED 

advance local business enterprise in America, local arts 

agencies advance arts and cultural development in communities small and large across the nation. Data gathered 

by the National Assembly of Local Arts Agendes show that 

the average local arts agency budget grew six percent in 1992. 

Of this money, 75 percent went to artists and arts organizations, while the rest was used to produce programming, design, arts-in-education, and neighborhood outreach programs. 

Active involvement of the communities is one reason for 

continued growth; 56 percent have arts programs that 

address social issues such as youth-at-risk, race relations, and 

homelessness. 

While grants in the Local Government Incentive 

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

governments, the projected match was three-to-one in 1992. 

Grants in this category serve 2,668 local arts organizations in 

333 communities. About one-third of these funds went to 

rural communities. 

In Louisiana, the Shreveport Regional Arts Council received a three-year grant to support implementation of ten 

programs in the community’s cultural planning process. The 

Arts Council will help revitalize the city’s downtown and 

riverfront areas by aiding with installation of art works, by a 

new grants program for artists and arts organizations, and by 

developing a preliminary plan for an Arts Center. The 

Shreveport community will invest more than $600,000 for 

neighborhood development. 

The Arts Council of Fort Worth and Tarrant County received a three-year grant to develop neighborhood arts centers. 

A Neighborhood Arts Program Advisory Committee identified existing neighborhood structures for adaptation as multidisciplinary arts centers. Each center will provide finandal and 

technical support to neighborhood-based arts groups and aid 

Ft. Worth’s major and mid-sized arts institutions. Through 

this project, the community will be contributing over 

$300,000 in new money to Ft. Worth’s neighborhoods. 

The Local Arts Agency Development Category aims to 

encourage 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 Staffgrants 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 and patrons and members of arts organizations. By raising community awareness about the arts, the 

projects also heightened community involvement in and 

support of its cultural resources. Twenty-two grants were 

funded in communities from Grand Rapids, Michigan to 

Las Cruces, New Mexico. 

The Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs received a 

planning grant to support a downtown cultural district plan. 

The Chicago Cultural District will address the dynamic relationships between cultural facilities and neighborhoods, be- ’ 

tween the downtown and neighborhood cultural communities, and the economic impact of city-wide cultural 

programming. The goal of this plan is to establish a permanent funding mechanism to target city-wide cultural programming for Chicago. 

In Tacoma, Washington, the Pierce County Department 

of Community and Economic Development received funding for a new director of programs for the local Arts Commission. Responsible for the New Audiences program, Arts 

in Education programs and services, among others, this person will also provide ongoing technical assistance for local 

artists and arts organizations. 

The Leadership Training and Services category supported 

activities at the regional and national levels that focused on 

professional development of local arts agency administrators. 

Through a cooperative agreement, the National Assembly 

of Local Arts Agencies will develop Fundamentals of Local 

Arts Agency Management workshops for local arts agencies 

throughout the United States. In 20 locations across the 

country, workshops will address local partnership building, 

community cultural planning, board and staff development, 

volunteer management, and other issues. The Endowment 

also supports the National Assembly of Local Arts Agencies’ 

308 National Endowment for theArts 
Mar~lyn Zwak’s adobe ~ures, |nsplred by prehistoric Indian forms, adorn an Arizona highway. The project was 

funded by the Phoenix Arts Commission, one of 3800 local arts organizations served by the National Assembly 

of Local Arts A~encies, an Endowment b~antee.

In Florida, the Arts Assembly of Jacksonville received funding for the expansion of a pilot comprehensive arts education 

program for Duval County. This two-year project brings together teachers, principals, school board members, and the 

general public to build and strengthen a coalition for arts in 

education. Part of the project will utilize a PTA Cultural Arts 

group to develop an information and advocacy network, create 

fundraising opportunities for long term programming, and 

continue to provide access to information and arts education 

resources for programming by PTAs in schools. 

Grants were available in 1992 to state arts agencies 

under this category for greater assistance to developing local 

arts agencies in rural, inner-city and under-served areas. 

These 1992 Underserved Communities Set-Aside funds 

went to 32 states and one territory for Technical Assistance 

and Basic Salary Assistance. Fourteen Technical Assistance 

grants funded more than 17 on-site management projects 

and consultancies. Seventeen conferences and workshops 

were slated for areas not previously served. Local arts agency 

staff members in nine states received travel assistance to attend conferences important to their professional development. Four statewide assemblies of local arts agencies received funding for newly created executive director positions. 

Twenty-six local arts agencies were able to hire first-time professional directors. 

The Mississippi Arts Commission in Jackson received 

support for a three-part technical assistance program in small 

scale communities. This project provides local arts agencies 

with tools to nurture and assess their cultural resources to expand arts experiences and education. The project will include 

statewide training meetings and other resources for local arts 

agencies. 

The Massachusetts Cultural Council received a three-year 

grant to support hiring of executive directors for local arts 

agencies. Up to six local arts agencies will receive funding for 

a flrst-time executive director. Each local community will be 

contributing half the cost of the position, while the state arts 

council and the Endowment will contribute the balance. 

These new directors will create regional "hubs" that can serve 

as models and mentors to other emerging local arts agencies. 

Texans produce and attend A Midsummer Night’s Dream at the Abilene Christian University Shakespeare Festival 

with help from the Abilene Cultural Affairs Council.

"First Night for Kids" rings in New Year’s Eve under the aegis of 

an arts council in North Carolina, which continues its manifold 

projects under a muKi-year Endowment grant. 

1992 Annual Report 315 
State & Regional
 

76 grants; 8 cooperative agreements
 

Program Funds: $30,840,085
 

The State & Regional Program is the primary source of 

Endowment support for programs administered by designated 

arts agencies in 50 states and six special jurisdictions and by 

seven multi-state regional arts organizations. The Program administers those Endowment funds reserved by law primarily 

for formula grants to these state and regional arts agencies. 

A S IN PREVIOUS YEARS, IN FY ’92 MOST 

State & Regional Program funds were invested 

through the Basic State Grants and Regional 

Arts Programming Grants categories. Some 

monies were used to encourage collaborative initiatives 

jointly developed and implemented by other Endowment 

program offices, state arts agencies (SAAs) and regional 

arts organizations. Collaborative initiatives for FY ’92 included Dance on Tour and the Regional Visual Arts 

Fellowships. 

This year Basic State Grants of nearly $26 million 

helped leverage $213 million in funds appropriated by the 

states, a return of more than eight state dollars for each federal dollar. These funds were used to respond to the needs 

and opportunities of the individual states and jurisdictions. 

Goals most commonly identified by SAAs include: increased access to arts experiences; encouragement of excellence through development and support of arts organizations; assistance to individual artists; and promotion of the 

arts in education. 

Regional Arts Programming Grants were combined 

with more than $6 million in state and regionally raised 

private money. These funds were then used to support the 

activities of seven multi-state regional organizations. 

Throughout the country, these grants provided the fee subsidy needed to enable community organizations to present 

arts events of high quality. Regional groups report that in 

the previous year alone they helped more than 1,000 presenters bring performing artists to a combined audience of 

more than 4 million. In addition, these organizations assist 

individual artists through fellowships, artist residencies and 

other services to artists. 

The State & Regional Program also administers a portion of the Endowment program funds set aside for projects 

in artistically underserved areas. This year the Arts Projects 

in Underserved Communities category stimulated a great 

variety of proposals and enabled the Endowment to invest 

in projects that are making a positive difference in the lives 

of people living in rural and inner-ciry communities. 

Projects supported through this category included: 

 ̄ Pennsylvania’s Strategies for Success Program of technical assistance and grants to cultural organizations in 

under-served areas; 

, Montana’s initiative to enable Native American communities to develop arts education programs that reflect 

their culture and history; 

 ̄ Arizona’s anti-drug partnership of artists, private enterprise, law enforcement and educators to support arts 

programs that help youth to reject drugs; 

 ̄ Texas’s program of community-based artist residencies 

in public housing developments in Houston, Dallas, San 

Antonio and El Paso; 

 ̄ Mississippi’s support of community-based projects 

such as Starkville’s Children’s Arts Festival, invoMng collaboration among artists, Headstart programs, 4-H councils, and local cultural and civic groups. 

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 difficult or impossible without a strong network of state and regional arts agencies. This network exists largely because of 

the Basic State Grants and Regional Arts Programming 

Grants, which constitute a stable, ongoing resource for arts 

programs that respond to local needs. 

Before receiving these funds, agencies must show that 

their programs respond to goals developed through public 

planning, and that their own grant decisions are based on 

published criteria and conflict-free peer review. They must 

also present evidence of substantial efforts to involve 

underserved groups and assure broad access to programs. 

The federal investment in state arts agencies and regional organizations has produced excellent returns. 

Agencies have developed non-federal sources of support; 

addressed needs identified at the state and regional levels; 

and developed into strong partners, able to work with 

Endowment programs in delivering arts resources to people 

in every part of the country.

fur the Arts, one of six regional arts organizaUons funded by the Endowment.

1992 Annual Report 
Underserved Com
 

130 grants; 2 cooperative agreements
 

Program Funds: $6,156,300
 

The Endowment’s reauthoHzation statute required that in 

1992 not less than 5percent of the agency’s program funds be 

awarded to state arts agencies and regional arts organizations to 

support projects in rura~ inner-city and other artistically underserved areas. Thus, the Underserved Communities Set-Aside 

initiative. Its goals: to offer granu to state and regional arts organizations in order to support projects that raise the artistic 

capabilities of developing arts o~ganizations, and to stimulate 

artistic activity and awareness, and broaden public access to the 

arts in these areas. 

F

IVE ENDOWMENT PROGRAMS PARTICIPATED 

in the Underserved Communities Set-Aside 

Initiative in FY ’92: State and Regional, Locals, 

Folk Arts, Expansion Arts, and Presenting and 

Commissioning. Through the combined efforts of 

these programs, support reached most states, spedal jurisdictions, and a number of regional arts organizations. 

(Of the $6.1 million awarded to projects in underserved 

communities, $3.9 million or 64 percent went to rural 

communities.) 

The Endowment sought to expand access to the arts in 

rural areas by working with State Rural Development 

Councils through the Presidential Initiative on Rural 

Development. Several projects, including joint ventures, involved support from other federal agencies: the Economic 

Development Administration, Small Business 

Administration, Forest Service, National Park Service, and 

the Soil Conservation Service. One such grant, to the Maine 

Arts Commission, enabled a study of the feasibility of a permanent marketing center for Maine’s traditional/folk arts. 

The Programs that supported the Underserved 

Communities Set-Aside are: 

State & Regional Program: The Arts Projects in 

Underserved Communities category allows each state or regional arts agency flexibility to work with underserved communities to develop projects tailored to their particular 

needs. Grants are available for projects that improve artistic 

and managerial abilities of developing arts organizations and 

that stimulate artistic activity, increase awareness and 

broaden public arts access. 

In FY ’92, this category provided 37 grants in 32 states 

and four special jurisdictions. Fifteen projects focus primarily 

on rural communities, nine on inner-city communities 

and thirteen potentially involve both rural and urban 

communities. 

Assistance to tribal colleges and schools in Montana will 

boost development of arts education programs that deal with 

Native American culture and history. In Texas, support for 

community-based artist residencies will stimulate artistic activity and awareness in public housing developments in 

Houston, Dallas, San Antonio and E1 Paso. In North 

Carolina, a grant will provide support for the organizational 

development of arts groups based in Black, Asian, Hispanic 

and Native American communities. 

Local Arts Agencies Program: Set-Aside funds continue 

to be used for a Locals Program category offering two types 

of grants: 1) Technical Assistance grants, which provide opportunities for staff development and technical assistance 

through state arts agencies working alone or in conjunction 

with statewide assemblies of local arts agencies; 2) Basic 

Salary Assistance grants, which serve as catalysts for establishing and stabilizing professional leadership in developing local 

arts agencies through the hiring of professional, full-time 

executive directors. 

Through these mechanisms this year, the Local Arts 

Agencies Program served over 700 local arts agencies. In 

addition, grants to three regional arts organizations supported projects for other local arts agencies. Projects ranged 

from technical assistance to develop the South Dakota Arts 

Council’s Native Arts Planning effort for nine Indian reservations to basic salary assistance for new executive directors 

in several communities. Forty-eight local arts agencies received salary assistance to help provide management and 

technical professional assistance to artists and arts groups. 

Folk Arts: The Folk Arts Program channeled Set-Aside 

moneys through both its Folk Arts Organizations and State 

Arts Apprenticeships categories, thus engaging the nationwide infrastructure of state folk arts coordinators. Through 

this network and with Set-Aside funds, Folk Arts is breaking 

new ground with populations and in regions that have been 

previously underserved. The Folk Arts Organizations category supports the presentation of, documentation of, and assistance to.folk artists. Folk Arts Apprenticeships provide 

state agencies with matching funds to assist apprenticeships 

between senior artists or artisans and talented mid-level 

learners. 

This year the Folk Arts Program awarded 47 grants totalNational Endowment for the Arts

ing $1,079,000 in Set-Aside funds that directly reached 

27 states and two special jurisdictions. In addition, 

grants to two regional arts organizations indirecdy supported projects. The projects included a gathering of 

cowboy poets and musicians in southern New Mexico, 

and a survey of Mexican American traditional musicians 

in Washington State. Apprentice grants funded with setaside monies reached 21 states, from Hawaii to Rhode 

Island and from Alaska to Alabama. 

Expansion Arts: The Expansion Arts Program 

launched a pilot Rural Arts Initiative in 1989, which 

seeks to identify and strengthen emerging rural arts organizations that have the capacity to improve the quality of 

their work and to reach wider audiences. Matching 

grants have been awarded to state arts agencies for re~ 

granting to rural arts groups. For FY ’92 eight grants 

were awarded totalling $379,000. 

This initiative, funded through the Set-Aside, 

continues to be administered by Expansion Arts. 

Fourteen states have participated in it to date: Alabama, 

Alaska, Arizona, Iowa, Louisiana, Maine, Montana, 

New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, 

Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas and Wisconsin. 

Together, these awards support arts organizations 

that graphically reflect America’s rural diversity. For example, the Arizona program focuses on the tribal museums that have emerged in the state in recent years, offering them both grant and technical assistance. In Iowa, 

the Rural Arts Initiative funds organizations ranging 

from the Amana Colonies to a modern art gallery and 

a touring theater. 

Presenting and Commissioning/Dance on Tour: 

The Dance On Tour category is designed to strengthen 

dance and dance audiences by supporting dance touring. 

In 1992, tours in six states were particularly targeted to 

reach rural or inner-city areas. Projects supported in this 

category ranged from residencies by dancer Stephen 

Kopolowitz and members of his company in rural 

Maine communities to performances and residency activity by the American Indian Dance Theater in four 

Minnesota sites. The Lewitzky Dance Company will 

visit f~ve rural communities in Arizona -- Lake Havasu, 

Page, Stafford, Yuma, and Prescott -- during the 1993­

94 season. Days-long engagements in each site will include planning and technical assistance consultations on 

marketing, facility preparation, and outreach as well as 

master classes, lecture-demonstrations, open rehearsals, 

talks with local business and political leaders, and choreography classes.

Office of
 

Policy, Planning,
 

Research & Budget
 

The Office of Policy, Plannin$ Research and Budget (OPPRB) 

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 coordination of the agency’s planning and budgeting functions assures 

that the internal allocation of funds roqects the policies and 

priorities of the agency’s leadership. In addition, three special 

offices function under OPPRB: International the Arts 

Administration Fellows Program, and the Office of Special 

Constituencies. 

T 

HROUGH MODEST GRANT-MAKING 

activities and crucial public information and 

partnership efforts, the International office 

helps American artists, arts organizations, and 

audiences reap the benefits of international 

exchange. In response to dramatic international changes and 

opportunities, this office will move out of OPPRB in FY ’93 

to become a full-fledged program under the Deputy 

Chairman for Programs. 

The Research Division undertakes projects with private 

researchers, non-profit Organizations, and other federal agencies. The analysis and dissemination of this information is 

accomplished through the 13ublication of research reports 

and notes as well as through periodic conferences and the 

services of the Arts Endowment’s library. 

The Arts Administration Fellows Program supports the 

professional development of arts managers. 

The Special Constituencies Office provides education, 

technical assistance, and funding for promoting accessibility 

to the arts for older and disabled people as well as for those 

living in institutions.

*An additional $375,500 was awarded by other Programs to support another 23 grants. 

The International Office seeks to honor and make visible 

around the world the excellence, diversity, and vitality of the 

arts of the United States. Domestically, the Office endeavors to 

increase audience access to and understanding of the international influences within American culture. The Office assists 

American artists and arts organizations to develop international 

ties, share their work abroad, and bring to their U.S. audiences 

new insights, artists and works. 

ARTS ORGANIZATIONS AND LOCAL GOVERNments in every part of the United States have 

seen the many important benefits in hosting the 

highest caliber international arts events in their 

communities and in providing a showcase for their artists in 

other parts of the world. Cultural exchange can enhance the 

prestige and economic viability of arts organizations and 

communities. It can spark interest in participation in the 

global marketplace, foster mutual understanding between 

varied local cultural groups, increase tourism, and help improve the quality of life for local residents. An example from 

San Antonio, Texas illustrates this point. 

San Antonio hosted an exhibition, "Mexico -- Splendors 

of Thirty Centuries," in conjunction with the government of 

Mexico. Arts organizations throughout the city sponsored 

programs on the arts of Mexico, creating a festival atmosphere that generated great interest in the culture of San 

Antonio’s Mexican American citizens. During the fourmonth run of "Splendors," 265,000 people visited San 

Antonio to see the exhibition and participate in Mexico-related activities, 131,000 of them traveling more than 100 

miles. These visitors spent $82,046,000 (or an average of 

$626 per person) and generated $5,021,000 in sales tax and 

hotel/motel tax revenue for the city. 

International presentations can reach inner-city and rural 

audiences who have had little opportunity to experience 

cultural traditions from abroad. With support from the 

International Office and other Endowment Programs, 

Touchstone Theatre in Bethlehem, PA brought Teatro la 

Memoria of Santiago, Chile to conduct a residency and create 

a new bilingual work reflecting the concerns of Bethlehem’s 

own diverse community in rural Pennsylvania. Additionally, 

the national reputation of this small theater company was advanced through touting this work around the country, including to Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New York. 

To further its mission of bringing the benefits of 

international exchange to audiences and artists throughout 

the United States, the International Office develops publicprivate partnerships that stimulate increased resources for international arts interchange. These partnerships not only 

bring new resources to bear for cultural exchange, but also 

afford small arts and community organizations as well as 

individual artists the opportunity to develop substantive international ties that will contribute to their creativity and 

economic viability. The creation of such partnerships represents a major achievement of the Arts Endowment in the 

international arena. 

This Office’s oldest partnership is the Fund for U.S. Artists 

at International Festivals and Exhibitions. The Endowment’s 

$250,000 contribution to the Fund in 1992 makes $1.1 million available to assist a broad range of artists from throughout 

the United States to participate in international festivals and 

exhibitions worldwide. The Fund made U.S. representation 

possible at international contemporary art exhibitions where 

U.S. work is rarely seen such as Cairo, Egypt; Cuenca, 

Ecuador; Istanbul, Turkey; and Dakar, Senegal. Additionally, 

the Fund supported U.S. participation in the major visual arts 

biennials in Venice and Sao Paulo. The Fund has frequendy 

provided the first significant international recognition for 

emerging American artists of great talent. 

In the performing arts, the Fund supported such accomplished American groups as Dance Theater of Harlem, 

which participated in ground-breaking performances, master 

classes and workshops throughout South Africa, and the 

Pacific Northwest Ballet, the only U.S. group invited to the 

International Music Festival in Krasnoyarsk, Russia. Artists 

of great merit who do not regularly tour internationally have 

also received Fund support. These include cowboy artists 

from the Western Folklife Center ofElko, NV who shared 

their lore at the Moomba International Festival in 

Mdbourne, Australia and the Drinkall-Baker Duo of Orem, 

UT, who premiered American works at the Festivalde las 

Artes in Maracaibo, Venezuela. 

Participation in international festivals 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. 

In 1992, the Office established three new partnerships 

with foundations and foreign governments for the benefit of

U.S. artists, arts organizations, and audiences. Each new partnership has a specific geographic focus. For example, the 

Travel Grants Pilot (covering Africa, Latin America, the 

Caribbean, and South and Southeast Asia exchanges) 

incorporates Endowment resources with those of Arts 

International and The Pew Charitable Trusts. 

Through the Travel Grants Pilot, photographer Sister 

Carlotta Duarte of Cambridge, MA received a grant to train 

school children in San Cristobal de las Casas, Mexico in the 

use of photography to record their own history, culture, and 

daily life. The grantee plans an exhibition in the United States 

of her work and the children’s photographs, with accompanying educational materials relating to her experience in Mexico. 

Glassmaker Acquaetta Williams of Columbus, OH used 

her grant to immerse herself in traditional Nigerian glassblowing and beadmaking techniques. Ms. Williams will offer 

workshops in the community organization she directs to 

teach local artists about Nigerian glass arts and their connection to African American cultural heritage. 

The United States/Mexico Artist Residencies, a joint program with the Mexican government’s Consejo Nacional para 

la Cultura y las Artes, gives U.S. artists and audiences opportunities to interact with Mexican artists. Centrum, an artists’ 

community in Port Townsend, 

WA has planned local, statewide, 

and regional public programs for 

the two Mexican artists it will 

host. Alternative Worksite/Bemis 

Foundation, an artists’ community in Omaha, NE will also host 

two Mexican artists, with collateral programs in schools and local 

civic, social, and cultural organizations to create new work in collaboration with interested 

Nebraska residents. 

Our newest partnership, 

ArtsLink (covering exchanges 

with Central and Eastern Europe, 

Baltic states, and the former 

Soviet Union) is a collaboration 

with the Open Society Fund, 

Inc., the Trust for Mutual 

Understanding, and Citizen 

Exchange Council. ArtsLink will 

allow U.S. artists to work collaboratively with colleagues from reof the program is to provide an interactive exchange of information and expertise that benefits both the artists and their 

respective home communities. The first grants under 

ArtsLink will be awarded in July of 1993. 

In 1992, the Office also launched the International 

Projects Initiative (IPI) to support U.S. arts organizations undertaking exemplary exchange projects, particularly those 

with a demonstrated benefit to the organization’s home community. The Friends of the Alaska State Museum in Juneau, 

AK received support through IPI to develop a comprehensive 

arts education program to accompany an exhibition that 

toured rural Alaska and Siberia. The program included curriculum materials on the arts of Alaskan Native and eastern 

Siberian peoples to be used in Alaskan and Russian schools, 

teacher in-service training, and artists in the.schools residencies for Alaskan and Siberian Native artists. 

Another IPI grant supported four leading Mexican artists 

representing the visual and traditional arts of Mexico to teach 

lost craft skills to Mexican Americans living in San Antonio. 

These same artists served as visiting teachers at Chicago’s 

Gallery 37, an innovative city arts education project which 

each summer provides training in marketable arts to over 300 

high school students from low-income families.

Research
 

9 Projects 

Funds: $283,970 

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 infbrm cultural policy processes by examining 

the cultural needs of the public, iaL, ntij~ing 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. 

T HIS YEAR THE DIVISION FUNDED THE 

final three months of data collection for the 

nationwide survey of Public Participation in 

the Arts conducted by the U.S. Bureau of the 

Census. In addition, the Division commissioned Jack 

Faucett Associates to prepare a summary report conveying principal findings from the 1992 survey to 

compare with the results of the 1982 and 1985 surveys. This report will provide information for researchers, policymakers, and practitioners in the arts 

with regard to public participation in the arts as well as 

geographic and demographic changes over the last 

decade. 

The Division also contracted with AMS Planning 

& Research to analyze the results of twelve pilot local 

arts participation surveys which had been cofunded by 

the Division and the individual communities. This report will help explain the differences in arts participation by community size and geographic region. 

The working life of the American choreographer m here represented by Elizabeth Streb Ringside 

is one topic being studied by the Research Division.

Special Constituencies
 

3 projects 

Funds: $49,284 

The Office for Special Constituencies is charged with raising 

public awareness in matters involving accessible arts programmingfor people who are older, disabled, or living in imtitutions. 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 under-served 

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. 

T HE OFFICE MADE NEW EFFORTS IN 

concert with the Design Arts Program to promote the concept of universal design, an approach to creating spaces and products that goes 

beyond providing special features and elements for people 

with impairments. Rather, universal design accommodates 

people of all ages, sizes and abilities as it incorporates elements and products that may be used by everyone throughout their lives. 

The Special Constituencies Office and Design Arts 

Program consulted with 13 universal design experts concerning how the Endowment may help advance this important concept, and funds were allocated to implement two 

priority recommendations. A universal design video and 

touring exhibition will be developed that demonstrates how 

the application of universal design enhances the activities of 

all people, leading to a more integrated, inclusive and humane world. Targeted audiences for this project include 

designers, educators, design students, city planners, and 

developers. 

Working with the National Assembly of State Arts 

Agencies, in July the Office convened a task force to develop an access manual for arts service organizations and 

other grantees on specific ways to open up existing programs and activities to disabled and older people. The task 

force, composed of fourteen staff and board members from 

state and regional arts groups and three accessibility experts, 

determined the manual’s content. It will feature a variety of 

resource materials including: access checklists for meetings 

and for programs in the performing, media, literary and visual arts; a job description for accessibility coordinators; a 

training guide for staff and board members; and a long 

range planning document. 

Other efforts to educate arts administrators on access issues included twelve presentations at meetings sponsored by 

grantees. The Special Constituencies coordinator conducted 

two access workshops at a conference sponsored by the 

Dallas Museum of Art; led an access seminar at the 

Tennessee Arts Commission’s Conference on the Arts in 

Johnson City, and provided awareness training for staff and 

board members of the Southern Arts Federation in Atlanta. 

The Office continues to direct the Endowment’s 

Working Group on Older and Disabled Americans, 

which encourages an integrated approach to access issues 

within the agency and beyond. For example, the Working 

Group helped plan two seminars on the 1990 Americans 

with Disabilities Act for Endowment staff, as well as staff 

from the National Endowment for the Humanities, the 

Institute of Museum Services, and the Advisory Council on 

Historic Preservation. Over 400 civil servants attended the 

seminars, which focused on program accessibility and legal 

requirements for grantees regarding media, exhibitions, 

historic properties, structural modifications and new 

legislation. 

During FY ’92 TheArts and 504 handbook was updated 

and revised prior to its sixth reprinting. This how-to manual 

explains the Endowment’s 504 regulations and accessibility 

solutions for major arts disciplines. New information explains the 1990 Americans with Disabilities Act and describes n.ew technologies such as Descriptive Video Services 

and Audio Description, which make the arts more available 

to vision-impaired people. The Office prepared to distribute 

7,000 free copies of the book, which will be marketed by 

the Government Printing Office. 

The Office also supported The Accessible Museum, a book 

to be published in association with the Institute of Museum 

Services by the American Association of Museums. Its purpose will be to help museum professionals open their doors 

and programs to new and larger audiences that comprise 

visitors and patrons who may be older or disabled.
