> Taller awards that recognize and reward outstanding after-school,
> out-of-school, and summer arts and humanities programs for underserved
> children and youth. The program, in its eleventh year, is sponsored by

> with the Institute of Museum and Library Services, the National
> Endowment for the Arts, and the National Endowment for the Humanities.=20
>
> By honoring excellence in after-school, out-of-school, and summer arts
> and humanities programs, the Coming Up Taller awards promote a creative,
> engaged, skilled, and confident generation of young people. Eligible
> museums, libraries, performing arts organizations, universities, arts
> centers, community service organizations, schools, businesses, and
> eligible government entities are encouraged to participate.

> At a previous Coming Up Taller awards ceremony, First Lady Laura Bush
> remarked, "...young people are discovering the humanities and the arts.
> They're developing the life skills and the discipline that leads to
> success. They're building the confidence to paint, dance, speak, and
> sing -- and in every one of their communities, to walk taller."
