In honor of the 40th anniversary of the National Endowment for the Arts, the Lyndon B. Johnson Library & Museum will host a public symposium in Austin, Texas.

"The NEA at 40: Cultural Policy and American Democracy"
will be held in the Library atrium on October 28-29, 2005.
All events are free and open to the public.

In order to explore the past, present, and future of the NEA,
this two-day symposium will bring together scholars, artists, and
policymakers to discuss issues of arts and American democracy,
government and cultural policy, and the legacy of the "culture wars."

NEA chairman Dana Gioia will deliver the keynote speech
Friday evening, and artist Sekou Sundiata will give the
keynote performance on Saturday evening.

Panelists will include performance artist Holly Hughes,
one of the "NEA Four," and Congressman John Brademus,
president emeritus of New York University.

Mr. Sundiata will serve as the symposium's
artist-in-residence. His public events include
informal brown-bag lunches and a public lecture.
