PROJECTS & INITIATIVES: National Programs
Shakespeare in American Communities
The National Endowment for the Arts presents Shakespeare in American Communities, the largest tour of Shakespeare in American history. Shakespeare in American Communities will bring professional Shakespeare productions and related educational activities to 100 small and mid-sized communities in all 50 states.
Look for a performance coming to a town near you, learn about the participating theater companies, or discover why Shakespeare is considered the greatest playwright in the English language – all on the official Web site of Shakespeare in American Communities.
Shakespeare in American Communities is a national theater touring initiative sponsored by the National Endowment for the Arts and The Sallie Mae Fund in cooperation with Arts Midwest.
ExhibitsUSA
Founded in 1988, ExhibitsUSA, Mid-America Arts Alliance's national museum service division, offers more than 50 diverse visual arts and humanities exhibitions in its annual catalog. Its mission is to create access to an array of arts and humanities experiences, nurture the understanding of diverse cultures and art forms, and encourage the expanding depth and breadth of cultural life in local communities.
During 2000-01, ExhibitsUSA toured 30 exhibitions to 141 communities in 42 states across America . These exhibitions were presented in major cultural institutional as well as small rural communities and represented a full range of art forms and cultural explorations. They also inspired over 1,000 associated community events such as lectures, workshops, and performances.
National Dance Project
The National Dance Project (NDP) provides a system of support for the living, growing discipline of contemporary dance, by supporting the production and distribution of dance in the United States . NDP views touring as central to the vitality of dance as an art form, and structures its granting process to link the creation and touring of new work. Through the dedicated efforts of dance presenters across the country, NDP helps audiences connect with the rich and varied talents of choreographers and their companies.
Jazz South Radio
JazzSouth Radio features new releases from outstanding southern jazz artists recording on independent, small, and mid-sized labels. JazzSouth compact discs combine musical selections with artist interviews. The program has a three-fold mission to provide a means of airplay and exposure for southern jazz artists who otherwise would not be heard: The JazzSouth spots provide an educational jazz experience for radio listeners; radio stations are provided outstanding southern jazz music that would otherwise not reach their libraries and audiences; and in the process build continuing relationships between the artists and radio stations.
