— Michael Gelb,
University of Virginia, Batten Fellow,
“With Good Reason” Guest.
1
When was the last time you flew a kite? This year’s cover reminds me of
flying kites as a child with my father and later with my children.
My son would watch and talk for hours, inspired by flights of
imagination. Kite flying spans generations, and most of us have
a memory of the first time we tangled one in a tree, or better,
successfully launched one into the wind.
VFH also views its participation in marking Jamestown’s 2007
commemoration as an opportunity to tell Virginia stories
that capture Virginia’s entrepreneurial history. Both the
encyclopedia and the anniversary will encourage Virginians
and the world to visit and experience Virginia, either in person
or through the web.
Like kite flyers, we at the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities
sometimes run against the wind to explore new horizons.
In these days of diminishing resources, organizations must
develop an entrepreneurial spirit to thrive. We encourage
innovative, visionary thinking and — occasionally — risk-taking
to bring ideas to life.
As we approach the 2007 observance and the introduction
of the encyclopedia, VFH remains committed to the guiding
principle that Virginia’s history should include as many
perspectives as possible. We will not ignore nor discount the
painful stories of Virginia’s past, nor will we dismiss issues in
the present or concerns for the future.
Using the humanities as a vehicle for community development is
one example of entrepreneurial spirit. In Martinsville, Virginia,
and communities along the Eastern Shore, VFH is helping areas

occurring. With VFH funding, the Chincoteague
Island Library initiated a long-term effort to
document, through research and the collection of
oral histories, the disappearing cultural traditions
of this wind-swept island. We look to extend
community development projects in Southside and
Southwest Virginia, while maintaining our close ties
to Tidewater, Northern, and Central Virginia.
The Virginia Encyclopedia, a one-of-a-kind online resource
about Virginia, is another example of an entrepreneurial
effort by the VFH. Thanks to seed-funding provided by
the Commonwealth of Virginia, a grant from the National
Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), and a private donor,
VFH will launch this online guide to coincide with the 400th
anniversary of Jamestown.
2
To create programs that bring the humanities more fully into
Virginia’s public life, we will continue to focus on our strengths
in African American and Virginia Indian history and heritage,
Virginia folklife and traditional culture, and books and literacy.
This is our commitment to the future.
With wind, flight is achievable for the otherwise earthbound
components of a kite — wood, paper, and twine. Likewise,
funding and encouragement from VFH give
ideas flight. That’s why we remain
dedicated to bringing the spirit and
diversity of Virginia culture to citizens
of the Commonwealth.

The VFH Grant Program spans reading and
literacy, science and technology, African American
heritage, media and culture, student and teacher
outreach, Virginia folklife and traditional
culture, and historical preservation, to
name only a few kinds of programs. VFH grants
fund lectures, websites, concerts, documentaries,
museum displays, and much more. In Irvington, the
Steamboat Era Museum is collecting oral histories
about steamboats in the Tidewater. With VFH funds,
the Loudoun Heritage Farm Museum is creating
an exhibit on the history of apple production in the

the creation of a brochure on the history and current

The Virginia Folklife Apprenticeship Program showcases folklife
artisans committed to preserving
old and new Virginia traditions.
Pittsylvania‘s Norman Amos never
dreamed his childhood hobby of
whittling would someday lead to a
display of his hand-carved snake
walking sticks at the Corcoran
Museum of Art in Washington, D.C.
Celebrating traditional music, dance, and craft is pivotal
to the mission of the Virginia Folklife Program at
the VFH. To nurture the next generation of folklife
artisans, this year the Folklife Apprentice
Program supported nine apprentices in
such diverse skills as Tabla drumming, old-time banjo
playing, and old-order Mennonite quilting.

Listening and responding to the words of others
is an important value
within the humanities.
The VFH Resident Fellows Program supported
16 distinguished scholars this year. Their work, which
includes conducting research and completing
book projects, is scholarship in the public
interest. This year’s projects included Deborah A.
Lee’s examination of opposition to slavery in Northern
Virginia, Tatiana van Riemsdijk’s focus on Chesapeake
Evangelicals and their struggle between saving
souls and solving slavery, and William W. Freehling’s
book The Road to Disunion, Volume II: Secessionists
Triumphant 1854-1861, which examines Southern
secession. William Kelso, archeologist and director
of the Jamestown Rediscovery Project, completed
a manuscript interpreting the discoveries at the
site of early 17th century Jamestown. The Fellows
program will mark its 20th anniversary in 2006
with several special events, including
a reunion for the program’s more
than 250 former Fellows.

complete listing of
this year’s distinguished Fellows and
their work.

Since 1999, VFH has built an African American
Heritage Program that raises the understanding
and interpretation of Virginia’s
African American history through
programs such as the Fayette Area Historical Initiative in Martinsville, Virginia. With funding from the
Harvest Foundation of Martinsville and the Public
Welfare Foundation, based in Washington, D.C., this
innovative partnership was formed to encourage local
community development, drawing on local history in
particular to help a community redefine itself.

The South Atlantic Humanities Center, a partnership with Virginia Tech and the University of Virginia,
characterizes the entrepreneurial vision that defines VFH
programs. This collaborative effort
furthers the humanities in the South
Atlantic United States, which includes Virginia, Florida,
Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Puerto Rico,
and the U.S. Virgin Islands. This year the Center held

In 2004, VFH once again hosted a NEH-funded Teacher
Institute for 20 instructors seeking to add another
dimension to their teaching. This
project brought together educators
for scholarly discussions, tours of historic sites, and
independent research. Teachers from across the United
States met in Charlottesville for one month to hone
their studies of the transatlantic slave trade as part
of a seminar series, “Roots: African Dimensions of the
History and Cultures of the Americas.”

a rich single source on a wide range of topics related
to the Commonwealth. In 2005,
just such a resource began to take

Encyclopedia will chronicle the people, history,
government, economy, and culture of Virginia.

As a student in Charlottesville, novelist Tammar
Laufer Stein regularly attended the Virginia
Festival of the Book. This year she attended
as a published author. She states, “Those early
experiences helped to inspire a passion in me.” The
11th annual Festival continued to inspire passion this
year as it drew more than 300 authors, writers, and
publishing professionals, as well as 22,800 attendees
from across the state, the nation, and the world.
Headliners included Malcolm Gladwell, Alexander
McCall Smith, Linda Fairstein, and David Baldacci.
