Grant Description

The Small Grants to Libraries program brings traveling exhibitions and other types of public programming to libraries across the country. “John Adams Unbound” is a collaboration among the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), the Boston Public Library, and the American Library Association (ALA). The exhibition is based upon a major exhibition of the same name that was on display in the galleries of the Boston Public Library, Copley Square, in 2006 and 2007 (see www.johnadamslibrary.org). The traveling exhibition and tour are funded by a major grant from NEH to the Boston Public Library “John Adams Unbound” has been designated as part of the NEH’s We the People program, which supports projects that explore significant events and themes in our nation’s history and culture and advance knowledge of the principles that define America.
