The art collection consists primarily of John T. Scott's art work. John Scott was one of those rare artistic spirits who let the sidewalks of New Orleans speak to his soul and imagination. Through his singular art, he has left us a visual and artistic legacy that will inspire us for generations. That is why the Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities has embarked on its mission to make the LEH Humanities Center a focal point for Scotts art, for no other artist has captured the cultural spirit and complexities of New Orleans and its people as eloquently. true See attached Annual Report for List of Grants and thier purposes Various LA 70113 137326 0 1 0 Grantmaker's Description of How Grants are Used Post-Funding Workshops: Project directors and fiscal agents of Louisiana Publishing Initiative, Public Humanities, Media Grants and Teacher Institutes awarded by the LEH are required to attend a post-funding workshop shortly after receipt of the award letter from the LEH. These workshops are designed to familiarize grant recipients with the LEH staff member charged with oversight of the grant, with the reporting forms of the LEH and with the financial management requirements of the LEH. Attendance can be waived, except for Teacher Institutes, if the project director and fiscal agent have previously attended a workshop.Financial Management: Grant recipients are required to adhere to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. This system would provide for the separation of grant funds from other revenues of the sponsoring organization and the maintenance of records (such as invoices, receipts, or vouchers) that adequately identify the reason for each expenditure of grant funds. This system should document the applicants share of the cost of a project (both cash and in-kind). The LEH requires that each recipient of a LPI, Public Humanities, Media Grant or Teacher Institutes furnish interim narrative and fiscal reports, which list and identify all disbursements of grant funds for the project up to that point.Final Report: Using the online grants management system, project directors must submit a final report to the LEH within 30 days following the end of the grant term. The first section of this report consists of audience statistics for the public program. The second section is the project directors written narrative evaluation of the project (three to four pages, double spaced, typewritten) critiquing the topic, format, humanities scholars, resource personnel, logistics, promotion, audience attendance, and the overall administration of the grant.
