OUR PROJECT SEEKS TO REMEDY THE HISTORIC ERASURE OF AFRICAN AMERICAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO CRAFT, MUSIC, AND DANCE TRADITIONS OF WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA. WE WILL ALSO EXAMINE SYSTEMIC FACTORS WHICH HAVE LED TO THIS CONDITION. THE PROJECT WILL CREATE AN IN-PERSON EXHIBIT, WEBSITE, LECTURE SERIES, PERFORMANCE SERIES, ARTIST RESIDENCIES, CATALOG, & TRAVELING EXHIBIT. IN ADDITION TO HISTORIC CONTENT, THIS PROJECT WILL IDENTIFY AND INTERVIEW LIVING TRADITION BEARERS FROM THE REGION. WE WILL CONTEXTUALIZE OUR FINDINGS WITH ACADEMIC ART CRITICISM AND THE ACCEPTED CANON OF WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA CRAFT, MUSIC, AND DANCE. THIS APPLICATION IS TO FUND TWO FIELD WORKER POSITIONS TO DOCUMENT TRADITION BEARERS AS WELL AS THE PRODUCTION OF AN EXHIBITION CATALOG WHICH WILL CONTAIN NEW SCHOLARSHIP, POETRY, ESSAYS FROM PROJECT CURATORS, ARCHIVAL IMAGES, A MAP OF AFRICAN AMERICAN HISTORICALLY SIGNIFICANT SIGHTS IN WNC, IMAGES OF THE ART AND ARTIFACTS EXHIBITED, AND GALLERY VIEWS OF THE EXHIBIT.
