NEH Chairman William Adams tours the LBJ Library exhibits. On Sept. 29, 1965, in a Rose Garden ceremony surrounded by artists and lawmakers, President Lyndon B.

The act called for the creation of the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) as separate, independent agencies.

The event in the Library Atrium was a conversation moderated by LBJ Library Director Mark Updegrove. The special event was hosted in partnership with the University of Texas at Austin
