Bureau, the Kentucky Humanities Council celebrates literacy by bringing PRIME TIME Family Reading Time® to

Veterans’ Programs
Talking Service
T
hrough a grant from the
National Endowment
for the Humanities, state
humanities councils were
given funding to host humanitiesbased programming supporting and
recognizing military veterans. The
Kentucky Humanities Council participated in a reading and discussion
program called “Talking Service”
which uses a compilation of readings,
essays, and poetry entitled Standing Down: From Warrior to Civilian. This program was designed
to bring 15-20 veterans together, of their own accord, to read
passages from the book and have an open-ended discussion to
get veterans talking about their military service. Critical to this
effort was to conduct the reading and discussion program in a safe
environment.
The discussions were led by a trained scholar who is also
a veteran of military service, and were held at four Kentucky
sites:

Bowling Green
hosted by the Upward Bound Veterans Program at
Western Kentucky University
Lexington
hosted by the Catholic Action Center

Fort Knox
hosted by the Army Community Service, Soldier &
Family Assistance Center, and U.S. Army MWR
Fort Campbell/Hopkinsville
hosted by the Fort Campbell Chapter Association
of the United States Army and the Kentucky New Era
In addition to the “Talking Service” programs, the Kentucky Humanities Council offered Kentucky Chautauqua®
programs to community organizations that serve military
veterans at no cost. Those organizations included the Paul
Patton Eastern Kentucky Veterans Center, Thomson-Hood
Veterans Center, Western Kentucky Veterans Center, Lexington Veterans Administration Medical Center, Barr Memorial
Library, and Morehead State University.

PRIME TIME Family Reading Time®
P
Enriching Families Through Reading Together
RIME TIME Family Reading Time is a family
literacy program that uses the humanities to create
excitement about reading and discussing books.
Using a combination of award-winning children’s
books as well as humanities themes and open discussion,
Prime Time connects literature to the real world. Prime Time
seeks to engage families with low-income, low-literacy skills,
and limited or no English language abilities. The program is
designed for parents and their 6- to 10-year-old children who
are at-risk due to poor reading ability.
Prime Time Family Reading Time programs are conducted
in 90-minute sessions, weekly, for six weeks. A professional
storyteller uses the provided children’s literature to demonstrate effective read-aloud techniques. A Prime Time scholar
leads lively discussions based on the books and humanities themes including fairness, greed, courage, and dreams.
Multilingual Prime Time programs are tailored to the needs
of non-English speaking families. Books are translated into
the appropriate languages; storytelling and discussion are
supported by trained translators and team members. Books
included in the program consist of culturally diverse stories
from around the world spanning fairy tales, folk tales, fables,
historical accounts, and other narrations of real-life circumstances familiar to adults and children alike.
Prime Time allows families to bond around the act of reading and transforms them into lifelong readers. It creates the
precondition for all learning and helps to end the cycle of
intergenerational illiteracy.
In 2014, the Kentucky Humanities Council sponsored 21
Prime Time Family Reading Time programs in 18 counties
throughout the state. More than 950 Kentuckians participated in the family literacy program.
Having sponsored Prime Time for 11 years, the Kentucky
Humanities Council has sponsored 169 programs throughout the Commonwealth, impacting nearly 9,000 people.
The Kentucky Humanities Council is proud to partner
with the Kentucky Department for Libraries, the Appalachian
Regional Commission, Blue Grass Community Foundation,
Duke Energy, Republic Bank, Wood and Marie C. Hannah
Foundation, Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities, and the
National Endowment for the Humanities to continue bringing
this life-altering literacy program to libraries across Kentucky.
Publications
K
Sharing Kentucky’s Culture
entucky Humanities magazine provides

across the Commonwealth, the magazine can also be

Kentucky Chautauqua®
The Impact is Dramatic
I
n its relatively short existence, our Kentucky
Chautauqua program has become the most
popular program offered by the Kentucky
Humanities Council.
In 2014, our Kentucky Chautauquans brought
147 programs to community organizations
throughout Kentucky — libraries, church groups,
book clubs, historical societies, association meetings, college campuses, and veterans’ groups,
just to name a few. More than 12,000 people
attended Kentucky Chautauqua programs last year.
Gathered audiences experienced Kentucky
stories including Mary Todd Lincoln’s trials and
triumphs, Adolph Rupp’s legendary basketball
career, and Mary Settles’ life as a Shaker at Pleasant
Hill.
Since we began the Kentucky Chautauqua
program in 1992, the Kentucky Humanities
Council has brought to life nearly 70 figures from
Kentucky’s past.
Chautauqua in the Schools
Bringing Kentucky History to Classrooms Across the Commonwealth
I
n 2004, the Kentucky Humanities
Council began delivering Kentucky
Chautauqua programs to classrooms
throughout the Commonwealth, providing educators an innovative and affordable
way to teach their students about Kentucky’s
unique history and culture.
Our 28 Chautauqua dramas cover topics
including Colonial Days, the Civil War, slavery, Kentucky music, and civil rights, providing
students with a unique experience that is both
educational and entertaining.
Last year our Kentucky Chautauquans
delivered 192 programs to schools all over the
state, reaching more than 20,000 Kentucky
students.
Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors and
underwriters, Kentucky Chautauquans can visit
elementary, middle, and high school classrooms
throughout Kentucky at minimal cost to the
schools.
