Greeting Cards

In the summer of 2010, a librarian at Wake Forest University undertook a project to restore and digitize a scrapbook from the library collection. The scrapbook was filled with greeting cards with Irish sayings which were beautifully printed and hand-colored. The acidic scrapbook came from the Cuala Press, an Irish Arts and Crafts Movement industry, which was run by the sisters of William Butler Yeats. The book needed restoration to preserve the unique greeting cards and other printed ephemera. An attempt was made to digitize the greeting cards in the scrapbook but copyright limited this part of the venture.

Art Collectives

Examines arts culture in the Arroyo Seco from the Arts and Crafts movement colony of the “Arroyo Culture” to the contemporary NELA art scene. It chronicles the major figures of this bohemia which waned with the decline of the region during decades of suburban outmovement and white flight. The significance of art collectives in the revival of the Northeast Los Angeles art scene is discussed, with Chicano(a)/Latino(a) art collectives emerging in the 1970s and white artists through the Arroyo Arts Collective in the 1980s. The central figures and themes of the Latino/a arts renaissance are explored in depth. The contributions of the arts to community development and cultural revitalization are identified. Finally the growing role of arts entrepreneurs in economic development is discussed, with reflections from arts leaders on the gentrification process and their growing role in local politics and cultural policy
