The Collection’s 2015 exhibition Purchased Lives: New Orleans and the Domestic Slave Trade, 1808-1865 is the recipient of a prestigious 2016 grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities. The $282,000 grant will allow Purchased Lives to travel within and outside the state. The exhibition’s two-year tour began in early June at the Alexandria Museum of Art, where the show will be up through August 20, and it will continue to the National Civil Rights Museum, in Memphis, Tennessee, and then to Bullock Texas State History Museum, in Austin, Texas.
Two additional grants, one from Entergy Corporation for nearly $40,000 and a second from the National Park Service for nearly $23,000, will support a separate panel display that will visit sites throughout Louisiana. The 10 portable panels allow for easy installation, bringing the exhibition’s narrative to an even larger audience.
