West Virginia residents may obtain a summary of the registration and financial documents from the Secretary of State, State Capitol, Charleston, WV 25305. Registration does not imply endorsement. Letter from the Executive Director Dear Members, When you work somewhere for a long time, it is always a challenge to maintain an open viewpoint and think outside the box. That is why it is always informative when new employees come to work here and we have the opportunity to hear their perspectives on who we are and what we do. More than 10 years ago, when Jenine Culligan, HMA’s Senior Curator, came to work here, she had some excellent thoughts about the Gropius Master Artist Workshop Program. She suggested that HMA’s Gropius program should grow its focus on clay artists. She noted that having a greater emphasis on clay was in keeping with the vision of Walter Gropius to provide a workshop of ideas where a synthesis of art, design and form is created; to make everything beautiful – even the most functional of objects. Like many great ideas that happen up here, it began percolating in people’s minds and began to inform decisions being made Museum- wide. Lots of serendipitous things occurred. The Education Department, under the direction of Katherine Cox, began slowly to incorporate clay activities into new and existing programming. Kathleen Kneafsey became HMA’s Ceramic Artist in Residence and participated in the Gropius Program’s selection process having a tremendous impact in bringing more ceramic artists to HMA. Kathleen Kneafsey guided HMA in the construction of a gas-fired kiln. More and more ceramic artists in the region and nationally began to hear of the Gropius program. As the numbers grew, we began further upgrades to the clay studio to provide the types of This young student taking part in a program in HMA’s Clay Studio will equipment that top clay artists would require if they were to be a be included in a national poster promoting Art Beyond Sight Awareness part of the Gropius program.

HMA has a fledgling national reputation throughout the are influenced by other artists and will display all the ceramic artists ceramics world. HMA hosts several nationally known ceramic artists who have participated in the Gropius program. During this exhibit, each year through the Gropius program serving ceramic artists in the HMA will bring in Warren McKenzie and Randy Johnston as Gropius region. The high-caliber ceramic artist Val Kushing will be coming Master Artists. Warren McKenzie is arguably the most significant this fall to do a workshop. Bringing such prestigious artists here is living ceramic artist in the world and certainly in America. especially important because, at Marshall University alone, the number of clay students has grown substantially in the past 10 years. All of this just goes to show the importance of a good idea and how it can become a reality which follows the same process as the creation More clay experiences have been incorporated into Museum tours and of art itself. The Museum appreciates the outstanding gift from programs. We have provided customized tours for Cabell County’s the Estate of Roxanna Y.

This year – 2011 – marks the 200th anniversary of the first steamboat to successfully navigate the Ohio River and eventually travel down the Mississippi (then referred to as western waters) to New Orleans. This first steamboat, named “New Orleans” was owned by Robert Fulton and Robert Livingston and constructed by Nicholas Roosevelt, whose family joined him as the first steamboat passengers on inland rivers. This important journey changed the course of American history, for it was not only a daring adventure, but it opened up the continent for further exploration, and led to thousands of steamboats being built and operated on the rivers in America. Photographs and steamboat ephemera portraying the different types of steamboats which plied the Ohio River from Pittsburgh to Cincinnati for the past two hundred years, selected from the extensive collection of river/steamboat historian and co-curator of the exhibit Gerald W.
