Series: Radio Scripts, 1972-1977
Scope and Content Note: Radio scripts broadcast by Gerald A. Bartell for the Wisconsin Arts Council, an agency responsible for the development of the arts in Wisconsin. Founded in 1957 the Council received no statutory support but rather functioned as a non-profit, voluntary public membership arts organization. It distributed funds of the National Endowment for the Arts to various projects and organizations to aid the development of theater, writing, painting, graphics, dance, film production, music, and other arts of all kinds. Bartell was chairman of the Wisconsin Arts Council, and did the broadcasts over WHA and the Wisconsin Educational Network.
