SUMMARY:Grant Application Draft Review Deadline
DESCRIPTION:Invited applicants may submit one draft for review by the draft deadline. NJCH staff will typically provide written feedback on your draft proposal\, but it can be incorporated into scheduled meetings. Our goal is to keep the turnaround time as short as possible\, but it will be dependent upon demand\, and we recommend that you submit your draft before the draft deadline. \nWe do not require complete applications for draft review. If you are unable to complete the full application by the draft review deadline\, a completed budget and partial narrative is often more useful than a complete narrative and no budget. \nDraft applications should be sent to grants@njhumanities.org as Word\, Excel\, and/or PDF documents. An easy way to create a PDF of your draft application is to click the “Application Packet” button in the application page of our online grant management system. \nFor full information on grants\, visit https://njhumanities.org/programs/grants-overview.

SUMMARY:Patchwork: Voices of 19th-Century Rural Women
DESCRIPTION:NJCH is proud to sponsor this event from the Wallace House & Old Dutch Parsonage State Historic Sites. \nCivil War heroine Arabella Barlow\, a great-granddaughter of the Wallace family of Wallace House and Hardenbergh family of Old Dutch Parsonage\, was born into the women’s world of rural New Jersey in 1824. \nFor Arabella Barlow’s 200th Birthday\, historical musician and balladeer Linda Russell portrays twenty-one different women from ages 16 to 70 in this one-woman show at Wallace House & Old Dutch Parsonage State Historic Sites. \nFrom words taken from actual diaries\, letters and women’s magazines\, their stories emerge: Bertha joyously remembers the all-night dances; Harriet mourns the death of her little girl; Lenore vents her spleen at “husbands” as she vigorously pounds her bread dough; Grandma Ickus reveals the memories stitched into her patchwork quilts. Patchwork is an exploration of the lives of rural women of the 19th Century. We hear them singing\, reciting from their autograph books\, offering recipes and remedies. Through Linda’s powerful performance\, we feel their strength\, their sense of humor and their passion for life. \nAdmission is free. Bring your own lawn chairs and blankets for this outdoors performance. \nThis program is part of a series made possible the Wallace House and Old Dutch Parsonage Association with the sponsorship of New Jersey Council for the Humanities\, a state partner of the National Endowment for the Humanities. Any views\, findings\, conclusions\, or recommendations expressed in this series do not necessarily represent those of the National Endowment for the Humanities or the New Jersey Council for the Humanities.
