The Jay I. Kislak Foundation is dedicated to supporting scholarly
research and contributing significantly to the knowledge and
understanding of ancient and modern Florida, Mesoamerica and
the circum-Caribbean region. The Foundation supports research
projects in the disciplines of archaeology, history, art history,
epigraphy, linguistics, ethno-history, ethnography and sociology.
Research programs are developed by the Foundation independently
or in collaboration with other institutions. We sponsor and
conduct various research activities that explore, analyze,
interpret and disseminate information based on the historic
record of the region.
Kislak research programs benefit from the significant experience
of staff and Advisory Board members
in the fields of history, art, archaeology, anthropology and
related fields. The Foundation enjoys strong relationships
with major universities, international research organizations,
individual scholars, and local and regional cultural institutions.
Kislak research projects are based not only on documents and
objects in the Kislak collections, but also on topics emerging
from outside collections, archaeological sites and other related
sources. The Foundation's library is a significant resource
for international scholarship in Florida and Caribbean studies.
