prospect new orleans archival book project 1234747026
Prospect New Orleans, the citywide triennial launched in 2007, will not mount a seventh edition in 2027. Instead, the organization will focus on creating a publication titled "20 Years of Prospect," featuring oral histories, critical essays, and archival imagery from its first six editions. The decision, driven by factors including legacy preservation and funding constraints, was characterized by former executive director Nick Stillman as a holistic step back from the demanding three-year cycle to ensure the organization's accomplishments are recognized and organized. Prospect has operated on budgets between $5 million and $6.3 million per cycle and has received NEA grants since 2019.
