ABSTRACT The Federal Arts Project (WPA-FAP) (1935–1943) of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) was a federally funded program designed through Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal to keep visual artists at work during the Great Depression. Many of these arts programs took place through museums and exhibitions, bringing the visual arts to everyday Americans with public programs and outreach. The continued legacy of these community-driven, education-centered approaches is evident in today's museums through outreach initiatives, studio programs, and responsive community programs that seek to bring visual arts experiences to the public. This article will discuss key WPA-FAP museum programs and policies, and relate these objectives to current practice in museum education.

进步主义和工程进步管理对博物馆教育的影响

摘要 工程进度管理局 (WPA) 的联邦艺术项目 (WPA-FAP) (1935–1943) 是一项由联邦资助的计划，通过富兰克林·D·罗斯福的新政设计，旨在让视觉艺术家在大萧条期间继续工作。这些艺术项目中有许多是通过博物馆和展览进行的，通过公共项目和外展活动将视觉艺术带给普通美国人。这些以社区为导向、以教育为中心的方法的持续遗产在今天的博物馆中通过外展计划、工作室计划和寻求为公众带来视觉艺术体验的响应式社区计划显而易见。本文将讨论主要的 WPA-FAP 博物馆计划和政策，并将这些目标与博物馆教育的当前实践联系起来。
