The National Head Start Association with funding made available through the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) will enter into a partnership with the NEH and the Office of Head Start focused on a new program of arts and humanities, entitled "Picturing America: American History through Our Nation's Art." This set of 40 renderings of America's finest art include images of famous paintings, photographs, and historical objects that show the breadth of the American experience. This partnership will ensure the artwork and related informational materials will be provided to every Head Start program in the nation.
