Peabody to Share Collections With 9 Other Museums

Major collections from the Peabody Museum of Salem, the oldest of its kind in the country, will be shared with nine other museums through a $253,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities.

In what is one of the largest museum exhibit loan projects ever undertaken with federal support, the Peabody Museum will lend its collections of Indian, Eskimo, and other native artifacts to the Museum of Science in Boston, the Children's Museum in Boston, the American Museum of Natural History in New York, the Rochester Museum in Rochester, the Oregon Historical Society in Portland, the American Museum of Natural History in New York, the Science Museum of Minnesota in St. Paul, the Museum of the American Indian in New York, and the Heard Museum in Phoenix.

According to Fran Silverman, Director of the Collection Sharing Program, the Peabody Museum has one of the finest collections of Native American artifacts in the world. The collections to be shared will be selected from more than 100,000 objects, and will be used to give a cross-section of the regions and types of native cultures.

Museum Director C.C. Langenberg said that "in the past museums have been very self-centered. We have not been able to share our resources with other museums. This project will allow us to share our resources with other museums, and to learn from them as well."

The nine museums will be sharing the costs of the project, which will be used to prepare the objects for travel, to transport them, and to provide insurance.

The project will also include the development of educational materials, including films, slide sets, and teaching guides, to accompany the exhibits.

The Peabody Grant (Continued from page 1)

In a related development, the Peabody Museum has also received a $200,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Arts to establish a research and education program in the field of ethnographic film. The program will be under the direction of Dr. Sol W. tax, who has been a leader in the development of ethnographic film as a research tool.

The program will include the production of several new films, the establishment of a film library, and the development of a curriculum for teaching ethnographic film. The film library will be open to scholars and the general public.

The grants are part of a larger effort by the Peabody Museum to make its collections and resources more widely available to the public and to the scholarly community.

Museum to Utilize Grant for Sculptors

The Fogg Art Museum has been awarded a $25,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Arts to establish a program for the development of young sculptors.

The grant will be used to support a two-year program that will provide studio space, materials, and instruction for young sculptors. The program will be under the direction of Richard L. Long, a well-known sculptor who has been a member of the Fogg's faculty for many years.

The program will include a series of workshops and lectures by visiting artists, as well as opportunities for the young sculptors to work with the Fogg's collections. The program will also include an exhibition of the work of the young sculptors at the end of the two-year period.

Mr. Long said that the program is designed to provide young sculptors with the opportunity to develop their skills and to gain experience in working with a major art museum. He said that the Fogg's collections provide an unparalleled resource for the study of sculpture, and that the program will provide a unique opportunity for young sculptors to work with these collections.

The program is one of several initiatives that the Fogg has undertaken in recent years to make its collections and resources more widely available to the public and to the scholarly community.
