Go far.” We help them to realize their potential, to follow their dreams . to literally go anywhere with the skills they gain here. We are a stepping stone for students to find who they really are, what their dreams really are, and to start fulfilling them. As an institution, we thrive on these same principles. Therefore, we pride ourselves on providing innovative programs, which often become best practices and models for the national and international community. MWCC now unfolds the results of the college’s first-ever capital campaign, which resulted in raising nearly $4 million. Because of the success of the capital campaign and the philanthropy of the community we serve, MWCC received the highest match from the state’s Endowment Incentive Matching program. We have now finished construction and opened the Garrison Center for Early Childhood Education, dedicated the college’s library to Leo and Theresa LaChance, and completed Phase I of library renovations. Furthermore, one of the individuals at the heart of this campaign, MWCC trustee and foundation board member Jim Garrison, received national recognition with a 2006 Benefactors Award from the Council for Resource Development for his dedication to the mission of MWCC.

  • Zoological Best Practices Working Group Planning Roadmap
    September 2011, Zoo Animal Health Network www.zooanimalhealthnetwork.org Zoological Best Practices Working Group Planning Roadmap A Basic Guide for Emergency Planners for Managed Wildlife Facilities Prepared by the Zoo Best Practices Working Group for Disaster Preparedness and Contingency Planning 2011 Page 1 of 32 INTRODUCTION The Zoological Best Practices Working Group for Disaster Preparedness and Contingency Planning (ZBPWG) is pleased to provide the following information for your use in creating, reviewing and updating preparedness plans for managed wildlife facilities. The managed wildlife community is a diverse group, ranging from small exhibitors, wildlife owners, sanctuaries, rehabilitation facilities, zoos and aquariums. The ZBPWG’s mission was to provide information and recommend Best Practices that could prove useful to this wide variety of animal care experts. It is the hope of the Working Group that the information within and the references that are provided will assist anyone, regardless of the ‘size’ of your operation, to produce useful, integrated plans. The ZBPWG was created via Cooperative Agreement with United States Department of Agriculture Animal Care, and the Zoo Animal Health Network, located at Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago. The ZBPWG members have a diverse background within the managed wildlife community. Members are USDA veterinarians, zoo employees, wildlife rehabilitators, and exotic ranchers. A number of the members have been directly involved in natural disasters such as Hurricane Katrina. Others are subject matter experts who have added valuable information from other industry sectors that could be applied to wildlife facilities. The Mission Statement for the ZBPWG The mission of the Zoological Best Practices Working Group is to promote a culture of ‘all hazards contingency planning and preparedness’ for the managed wildlife community.

  • PATTI SMITH Eighteen Stations MARCH 3 – APRIL 16, 2016
    /robertmillergallery For immediate release: [email protected] @RMillerGallery 212.366.4774 /robertmillergallery PATTI SMITH Eighteen Stations MARCH 3 – APRIL 16, 2016 New York, NY – February 17, 2016. Robert Miller Gallery is pleased to announce Eighteen Stations, a special project by Patti Smith. Eighteen Stations revolves around the world of M Train, Smith’s bestselling book released in 2015. M Train chronicles, as Smith describes, “a roadmap to my life,” as told from the seats of the cafés and dwellings she has worked from globally. Reflecting the themes and sensibility of the book, Eighteen Stations is a meditation on the act of artistic creation. It features the artist’s illustrative photographs that accompany the book’s pages, along with works by Smith that speak to art and literature’s potential to offer hope and consolation. The artist will be reading from M Train at the Gallery throughout the run of the exhibition. Patti Smith (b. 1946) has been represented by Robert Miller Gallery since her joint debut with Robert Mapplethorpe, Film and Stills, opened at its 724 Fifth Avenue location in 1978. Recent solo exhibitions at the Gallery include Veil (2009) and A Pythagorean Traveler (2006). In 2014 Rockaway Artist Alliance and MoMA PS1 mounted Patti Smith: Resilience of the Dreamer at Fort Tilden, as part of a special project recognizing the ongoing recovery of the Rockaway Peninsula, where the artist has a home. Smith's work has been the subject of solo exhibitions at institutions worldwide including the Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto (2013); Detroit Institute of Arts (2012); Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art, Hartford (2011); Fondation Cartier pour l’Art Contemporaine, Paris (2008); Haus der Kunst, Munich (2003); and The Andy Warhol Museum (2002).
