Picturing America’ is a new arts and culture program organized by the National Endowment for the Humanities in coordination with the American Library Association and offered to the US Consulate by ECA.  The exhibition consists of 40 framed reproductions of significant American art spanning several centuries.  The frames were displayed on the ground floor at the Nassief House in the Al-Balad area alongside the ‘Legacy of the Middle East’ frames creating a Saudi and American cultural exchange opportunity. The opening event received wide press coverage and Nassief House has noted an increase in visitors.
