CONNECTING PEOPLE WITH IDEAS NEW HAMPSHIRE HUMANITIES CO UNCIL
|
ANNUAL REP ORT 2011-2012
DEAR FRIENDS, We’ve used our tagline “connecting people with ideas” for more than 25 years, and it continues to be an accurate representation of our mission. So often, we talk about the “ideas” side of the equation. Over the last two years, it was really the people – connecting with one another – that defined our work. When our original play Dreaming Again toured the state last spring, telling the New Hampshire immigration story from the early settlers to today, a transformational exchange took place. Performers and audience members alike experienced the connecting power of the play’s stories of escape, survival and homemaking in a new land. Through the play and the other events in our three-year project, Fences & Neighbors: New Hampshire’s Immigration Stories, we reflected on the meaning of the American Dream, then and now, and thought about what it means for our children. In the creation of our new bilingual picture book, The Story of a Pumpkin, we invited refugees from Bhutan to share their traditional stories with us. This book, in the hands of librarians and elementary school teachers around the state, is serving to introduce neighbors to one another, building bridges of understanding across cultures. And, as part of our adult literacy program, Connections, it will facilitate English language acquisition among natives and newcomers alike. Beloved Humanities to Go presenters now have groupies, who travel wherever their favorite speakers are appearing. They join crowded rooms of local folks for evenings of laughter, learning, and spirited conversation. And many talented new presenters offering a dazzling array of new programs joined our Humanities to Go speakers bureau through our new catalog released in the fall. We hope you enjoy perusing this Annual Report and exploring through words and images the many worlds that have come together to celebrate the power and pleasure of the humanities in our lives.

For almost four decades, the New Hampshire Humanities Council has been bringing the thrill of discovery and the power of ideas to people of all walks of life, from all corners of our state. WE SUPPORT local cultural and educational institutions during hard economic times by awarding grants for innovative educational programs and capacity-building.
WE INVITE citizens to reason together, to learn from and listen to one another. WE OFFER teachers cost-effective, content-rich professional development that strengthens the teaching of the humanities in our schools.
WE DEVELOP communities of readers, especially among those struggling with literacy and those new citizens just learning about their new culture and government. Our programs connect people to culture, history, places, ideas and one another.

“I was happy to see the confidence of the women and feel their strong desire to tell their stories. This clearly provided an important outlet for them as well as an education for others. You have created something unbelievably important for these women…and for the rest of us.” WHOLE CLOTH PROJECT PARTICIPANT, CONCORD, NH

“With a convincing dialect or deft mannerism, a well-placed drum riff, or a simple twist of the scarf, the ensemble of Dreaming Again transported its audiences into the emotional, legal, political, cultural, and economic landscapes of NH’s immigrants and refugees. The oral histories of escape, survival, and homemaking, from the Amoskeag Mills in 1850 to Laconia in 2010, lived on stage with such power that a Sudanese woman spontaneously shouted her own strong lines along with actress Lydia Hannibal— ‘Down, down Al-Bashir!’” Dreaming Again project evaluator Emily Archer

ANNUAL DINNER 2011
“I’m a big believer in the idea that we swim in a river of knowledge. Some of the information that comes and flows through us comes from our distant past and we call that genetics. Some of it comes in the form of art and culture and music and ideas and we call that the humanities. It is what flows through us and forms us.” David Brooks, 2011 Annual Dinner Keynote Speaker
ANNUAL DINNER 2012
“Faith isn’t meant to accommodate people to injustice, but rather to give them the means to challenge it.” Ambassador Andrew Young, 2012 Annual Dinner Keynote Speaker
Our 22nd Annual Dinner with David Brooks and our 23rd Annual Dinner with Andrew Young and Kabir Sehgal attracted capacity audiences to the Center of New Hampshire in support of our sole annual fundraising event. PHOTOS BY DEB CRAM.

“This film will endeavor to capture the vibrant, centuries-long interplay between this classic piece of civic architecture on the one hand, and the activities of the men and women of the community on the other—an interplay often seasoned with either grace or controversy, for this building has always mattered a great deal for this town.” Ron Jager, Project Humanist
