The New Harmony Project's values are not for sale. The Trump administration wants us to abandon our values and principles and turn our backs on our diverse and inclusive community. We will not do it. Read our Open Letter about changes at the NEA here. https://t.co/9ZXgQdzF2N

Michael Shayan performs magic - literally - at NHP's 2024 Residency. New stories for the stage and screen feel magical too. But magic alone doesn't create a new story. Your gift to NHP today helps us nurture writers as they create new narratives. https://t.co/J5m7FCqG3i.
