Biographical History

The Index to American Design was a subunit of the Works Progress Administration's Federal Art Project. The Index was a nationwide project whose mission was to document the evolution of American decorative, provincial and folk arts from the early 17th century to the close of the 19th century. The Southern California chapter of the Index to American Design (whose records this collection contains) was primarily focused on the pioneer art and design of native peoples and immigrant settlers with a particular emphasis on documenting the Spanish influence on art within California.
