{"product_id":"the-selection-process-of-the-stephen-michael-ayers-9780820415109","title":"The Selection Process of the National Endowment for the Arts Theatre Program","description":"This work is dedicated to building and understanding of how this country's only government subsidized arts support organization came into existence. Readers will find a brief narrative on the relationship between the United States Government and the precarious business of the cultural arts. A survey was conducted to identify the range of theatre organizations that apply for and receive funding. Readers will also find a good look at the NEA Theatre program and that branch of the Endowment's selection process. The author's conclusion offers some suggestions for improvement. In addition, there is a section on the NEA's legislative history and a summary on the  state of the arts,   particularly for the smaller, newer and experimental groups.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephen Michael Ayers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0820415103\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780820415109\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Lang Inc., International Academic Publi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/1992\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Stephen Michael Ayers","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48241115005183,"sku":"9780820415109","price":62.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_93bd97f4-5602-48ed-a661-127bba7a64dc.jpg?v=1772652804","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-selection-process-of-the-stephen-michael-ayers-9780820415109","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
