New Orleans Art: The New Deal Era

 Series

Scope and Contents

From the Series:

The City Archives houses the correspondence, minutes, financial records, sound recordings, posters, and other records of the Library's National Endowment for the Humanities-funded continuing education program. The records document the planning, organization, and production of the individual elements of the program. Sound recordings were made of most of the events and the original reel-to-reel tapes were duplicated on cassettes for research use. Also included are correspondence and minutes of Jambalaya Advisory Committee meetings; program files (including program proposals, reading lists, etc.); publicity files (including videotaped public service announcements); contracts with participants; a copy of the original proposal to NEH; and program registration records.
