Sallie Bingham was the founder and first Executive Director of the Foundation, and profoundly shaped its goals. The overall purpose of the Foundation is to support feminist women in the arts. This can be seen in the Foundation's first information pamphlet, which states that the Foundation's goal is "illuminating the plight of women and serving as a catalyst for change on their behalf, primarily through the Arts and Humanities." (This pamphlet can be found in the General Information Subseries of the Administrative Files Series). Additionally, with its publication of the journal The American Voice, the Foundation endeavors to support the work of feminist women writers.
[top]Collection Overview
The Kentucky Foundation for
Women Records span the dates 1985-1999, with the
majority of papers dating from 1985-1993. The collection
provides a rich source of information about grass roots
feminist activism, philanthropy, not-for-profit
organizations and artistic patronage, feminist art and
women's culture. The records of the Foundation include a
range of materials, primarily a large number of grant
files, including applications and supporting materials of
those awarded grants. Also notable are the files for its
publication,
The American Voice,
which include correspondence, copy-edited drafts of poetry
and other writings, business records, other publications,
miscellaneous ephemera, broadsides, and books of poetry. In
addition, there is information on the
Hopscotch House and
Wolf Pen Writers Colony,
miscellaneous correspondence, subject files, annual
reports, newsletters, and brochures. The records consist
primarily of files, but videocassettes, audiocassettes, and
compact disks are also included. The collection is divided
into four series: Administrative Files,
Project Files,
American Voice
Files, and Grant
Files.
The Administrative Files
Series contains Foundation newsletters;
administrative correspondence; minutes of Board of
Directors meetings; and financial, legal and tax papers.
The Project Files Series
contains papers on short-term special projects, as well as
long-term projects such as the Hopscotch House and the Wolf
Pen Women Writers Colony. The American Voice Files
Series contains information regarding the
publication of the feminist literary journal
The American Voice.
The series contains correspondence between the editors (
Frederick Smock and Sallie
Bingham) and contributors; copy-edited drafts of poetry,
prose, and non-fiction essays; business records;
broadsides; chapbooks (i.e. hand-bound books);
miscellaneous publications; and a partially complete run of
the journal. Some of the better-known authors to be
published in
The American Voice
include:
Paula Gunn Allen,
Isabel Allende,
Wendell Berry,
Jorge Louis Borges,
Kay Boyle,
Jo Carson,
Andrea Dworkin,
Elaine Equi,
Doris Grumbach,
Joy Harjo,
Fenton Johnson,
Robin Morgan,
Marge Piercy,
Reynolds Price,
Joyce Carol Oates, and
Anne Firor Scott.
Finally, the largest series, the
Grant Files Series, contains
documentation on the evolution of the Foundation's grant
program over the years, as well as files on those projects
that received grant monies from the Foundation from 1986 to
1993. The Foundation awarded grants to both men and women,
though women are in the majority. The grants supported the
work of visual artists, writers, scholars, musicians,
composers, documentary and fiction filmmakers, playwrights,
painters, sculptors, puppeteers, quilters and other fabric
artists, political activists, advocates for physically
handicapped women, and those concerned with women and
religion and women's employment issues. A unique concern of
the grant givers was supporting the exploration and
improvement of the situation of women in Appalachia,
encouraging women to explore and study the wilderness, and
defining and encouraging the emerging field of
Ecofeminism.
The addition (accession 2001-0012) (2208 items,
3.8 lin. ft.; dated 1986-1999) is minimally processed. This
addition continues to document the process of publishing
The American Voice.
Materials include correspondence, board minutes, grant
applications and evaluations, financial statements, video
(3) and audio (4) cassettes and one audio compact disc, and
information files for volumes 32-49. Also included are
writings by Sallie Bingham. Acquired as part of the Sallie
Bingham Center for Women's History and Culture.

Description of Series/Container List
Administrative Files Series, 1985-1999
Contains information regarding the conception
and incorporation of the Foundation in 1985, as well as the
running of the Foundation from its early years through the
1990s. The major administrative figures represented in this
series are
Sallie Bingham, Maxine
Brown, Pat Buster, Ann Stewart Anderson, Tim Peters, Mona
Murphy, and
Frederick Smock. The
General Information and Correspondence folders document the
range of ideas and goals for the Foundation originally
proposed by its founder, Sallie Bingham, and detail the
decisions made about which ideas to pursue and which to
abandon. Information on the evolving role of the grant
process illuminates the Foundation's increasing focus on
women in the arts in Kentucky over the years. The Sallie
Bingham correspondence also contains letters she wrote to
family members, as well as responses to numerous personal
requests for financial support or donations, the majority
of which she turned down. The set of newsletters
(1985-1999) and Board meeting minutes provide a concise
summary of the decisions made and the course of activity
followed by the Foundation. The financial, legal and tax
papers document the process by which the Foundation
acquired and dispensed funds, as well as the overall growth
of the Foundation. Original arrangement retained.

Project Files Series, 1985-1998
Contains information about special projects
undertaken by the Foundation, some of which were
short-lived and some of which continued indefinitely. The
Hopscotch House category contains information about the
acquisition of the property; discussions about potential
and actual events and projects undertaken at the house; the
hiring of Patty Wren Smith (a previous grant recipient) as
house manager and resident naturalist in 1989; and a run of
newsletters written by Smith documenting events at the
House including lectures and gatherings. This grouping also
contains a file of requests to use the house by various
local non-profit groups and reports of their activities.
The Wolf Pen Women Writers Colony folders detail the
planning and running of the Colony and document the four
summer meetings of the Colony, from 1988 to 1991. The group
also contains the applications and supporting documents for
the women writers who applied to take part in the Colony.
The Names and the Topics folders document minor projects
undertaken by the Foundation over the years--projects that
supported the Foundation's mission, but did not become a
lasting part of its activities. The folder groupings are
arranged alphabetically. Various persons documented in the
Project Files Series are also
documented in other parts of the collection. In particular,
some of the women writers who participated in the Wolf Pen
Colony also were contributors to
The American Voice
(e.g., Sharon Doubiago, Jan Freeman, Terri Jewel, Cia
McClannahan, and Marie Williams), while certain artists who
worked on a special project for the Foundation were later
successful applicants for Foundation grants (e.g., Jo
Carson, Cass Irwin, Brenda Marie Osbey, Maryat Lee).

Documents the origins and development of the
literary journal primarily from 1985 through 1993, though
there are miscellaneous materials from 1994 to 1998. The
journal is feminist in orientation, and highlights (though
not exclusively) the work of women writers. The
Correspondence folders contain letters between contributors
and other interested parties with Frederick Smock and
Sallie Bingham, the founders and editors of the journal.
The Issue Files folders contain information specific to the
publication of numbers one through 31 of the journal. Each
issue file contains correspondence about contributions to
the journal, correspondence about financial and/or
political issues, drafts and galleys of the pieces which
appeared in the journal (some of which contain comments by
the authors and/or editors), information regarding
advertisements and special issues, and letters soliciting
or offering material for publication. The journal has
featured the work of both well-known and little-known
writers. A sampling of the better-known writers includes
Marge Piercy, Wendell Berry, Jorge Louis Borges, Elaine
Equi, Isabel Allende, Fenton Johnson, Kay Boyle, Joyce
Carol Oates, Reynolds Price, Anne Firor Scott, Jo Carson,
Doris Grumbach, Paula Gunn Allen, Robin Morgan, Minnie
Bruce Pratt, and Joy Harjo. The writing of Sallie Bingham
is also often featured in the journal. Other writings are
found in the Books grouping: three 1989 chapbooks (hand
bound books) of poems on the theme of quilting entitled "No
Known Pattern;" and two hard-bound books published under
the journal's auspices, namely
This Meadow of
Time (a 1995 travel memoir written by editor
Frederick Smock), and
The American Voice
Anthology of Poetry (a 1998 collection of poems
originally published in the journal, with a preface
containing biographical information on Smock). At the end
of the grouping is an incomplete run of the journal (nos. 1
through 47, excluding nos. 4 and 30). See oversize
materials for broadsides displaying poems published in the
journal. Original arrangement retained.

Grant Files Series, 1985-1993
During roughly the first year of its
existence, from 1985 to 1986, the Foundation awarded grants
on an ad hoc basis. During its "second" year, 1987-1988,
the Foundation decided to award two runs of grants -- a
"spring" run and a "fall" run. In 1988-1989, only one
annual run was awarded, covering the spring and the fall
together. In 1988, a biennial grants cycle organized by
artistic discipline was instituted so that proposals
concerning visual and plastic arts were considered in even
years, while those concerning writing and the performing
arts were considered in odd years. In 1989, the Foundation
decided to award grants at the beginning of each year, so
starting in 1990 and continuing to the present, each grant
run is dated by a single year only.
This series consists of two types of files:
the "Grant Review Papers" and the individual grant files.
The "Grant Review Papers" first appeared in the fall and
spring of 1987-1988, and then appeared annually from 1989
to 1993. These files contain a list of the recipients for
that year (or half year), descriptions of each recipients'
project, notes on the decision making processes of the
grant review committee, and in later years, notes on
consultants brought in to advise on grant applications.
Read alone, these files provide a quick overview of the
types of grant projects supported by the Foundation and the
ways in which those projects evolved over time. They also
detail the goals and aims of the grant review committee
members, including former grant recipients, and members of
Sallie Bingham's immediate family (her husband Tim Peters
and son Barry Ellsworth).
The individual grant files are arranged
chronologically and alphabetized within each year,
reflecting the original order maintained by the Foundation
staff. In the files from 1985 to 1986, and 1990 to 1993,
files for persons and institutions are intermingled and
arranged alphabetically, whereas in the files from the
spring and fall of 1987-1988, and 1989, the files for
persons and institutions are separated, with the
institutional files following the personal files. Each
individual grant file contains the recipient's application
and supporting materials, notes on the application by Board
Members, letters of notification from the Foundation, a
final report and follow-up materials on the ways in which
recipients used grant monies. In certain cases, an
individual or institution received many grants from the
Foundation over the years, so that the relationship between
the recipient and the Foundation was one of long-term
patronage (e.g., Cass Irvin, Leslie Wood, Appalshop, the
Speed Art Museum). The grant files also reflect the
inter-twined nature of many of the Foundation's projects,
since in several cases persons who received grants later
became part of the Foundation's administration (e.g., Ann
Stewart Anderson, Patty Wren Smith), while other grant
recipients were involved with
The American Voice
(e.g., Lucinda Zoe, Marie Williams, Maryat Lee and Susan
Griffin).
The projects described in the grant files
cover a wide variety of topics relating to feminism, the
arts and humanities, and women's culture. These topics
include: literature and literary journals; poetry, prose
and scholarly writing; historical and literary conferences;
playwriting, theatrical production and performance;
African-American storytelling; musical performance and
composition; photography; documentary filmmaking; painting;
sculpture; puppetry; quilting and other forms of fabric
art; women in organized religions; women's political
activism and employment issues; environmentalism,
ecofeminism, naturalism, wilderness and outdoor adventure
activities by women; and the work of lesbians, women of
color, and physically handicapped women. The series is
arranged by years, then alphabetically by name; note that
from 1987 to 1989, corporate entities are filed in a
separate alphabetical run after the files for
individuals.
