Imagining America was formally launched at a 1999 White House Conference initiated by the White House Millennium Council, the University of Michigan, and the Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation. The name Imagining America reflects the theme of the White House Millennium Council, focused on renewing participation in all walks of U.S. life. In 2007, IA moved to its second host campus, Syracuse University, and hired Jan Cohen-Cruz as director. Imagining America is a national network of publicly engaged scholars, artists, designers, students, and community members working toward the democratic transformation of higher education and civic life.
