Welcome to Connections! We have much to celebrate with this
issue.
Spring is traditionally a season of rebirth and capstone events,
and it certainly was for the Trust and two of its legacy grantees.
In May, the Heard Museum in Phoenix reopened its signature
permanent exhibition, "HOME: Native People in the Southwest,"
which resides in the Nina Mason Pulliam Pavilion. In June,
the Trustees participated in the opening of the Nina Mason
Pulliam Education Center in the expanded Eiteljorg Museum
of American Indians and Western Art in downtown Indianapolis.
You might be wondering, "What is a legacy grantee?"
When the Trust began grantmaking in late 1998, the Trustees
established this designation for a small group of grant recipients
that had been special interests of Mrs. Pulliam during her
lifetime.

Legacy Grants Benefit Museums in Phoenix and Indianapolis
Nina Mason Pulliam cared deeply about enhancing the quality
of life in the communities where she and her husband, Eugene
C. Pulliam, worked, lived and prospered. Together, they worked
to add to the vibrancy of civic life in their dual hometowns
of Indianapolis and Phoenix. Today, Mrs. Pulliam's special
love of Southwestern art and Native American culture is memorialized
through grants to two legacy grantees, the Heard Museum in
Phoenix and the Eiteljorg Museum of American Indians and Western
Art in Indianapolis. more>>
