Question

which of these are ways the u.s. government promoted artistic expression during the great depression? (2 points)
the government opened hundreds of new museums and other artistic venues.
the government encouraged people to make art and write at their homes.
the government funded photojournalists and writers to record experiences.
the government instructed private citizens to give money to support the arts.

Explanation:

During the Great Depression, the U.S. government had programs like the Federal Writers' Project and the Farm Security Administration (which funded photographers). These initiatives aimed to document the era's experiences. Opening hundreds of new museums was not a major way (limited resources during depression). Encouraging home - based art/writing without funding wasn't a key method. The government didn't instruct private citizens to give money (it was government - funded programs).

Answer:

The government funded photojournalists and writers to record experiences.
