Picturing America and more

Great art speaks powerfully, inspires fresh thinking, and connects us to our past.


Picturing America, an exciting new initiative from the National Endowment for the Humanities, brings masterpieces of American art into classrooms and libraries nationwide. Through this innovative program, students and citizens will gain a deeper appreciation of our country’s history and character through the study and understanding of its art. (from Picturing America)
