PHOTOGRAPHS AND ART WORK, 1928-1932

Dates

  • 1928-1932

Scope and Contents

Photographs of PAWA events, projects, art work, and artists who gave performances for the Association. Most of the photographs are in black and white, although there are a few color snapshots. Also includes portraits of Latin-American women leaders, a drawing by Roura Oxandaborre, and two small watercolors.

Of particular interest is a dinner the PAWA gave for former Colombian president Alberto Lleras Camargo in 1947, at which were present former president Alfonso López and Ambassador Spruille Braden. Also of interest are photographs of a kindergarten in the slum of Lima, Peru, supported by the PAWA in conjunction with the Mamaroneck Teachers' Association, and of the laying of the cornerstone for a children's center in La Paz, Bolivia, supported by the PAWA in the early 1970s. Oversize items, stored separately, include four photographs of PAWA events.
