Famous quotes containing the word cultural:

    “Hard times accounted in large part for the fact that the exposition was a financial disappointment in its first year, but Sally Rand and her fan dancers accomplished what applied science had failed to do, and the exposition closed in 1934 with a net profit, which was donated to participating cultural institutions, excluding Sally Rand.”
    —For the State of Illinois, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
