James Burns What were Mary-Russell Ferrell Colton’s contributions to the progressive education movement and the Indian arts and crafts movement in the Southwestern United States at a time when the region was still very remote? Artist, author, amateur ethnographer, educator, and curator; these were but a few of the talents of Mary-Russell Ferrell Colton, co-founder of the Museum of Northern Arizona and early art advocate on the Colorado Plateau. This study investigates how Colton contributed to the progressive education movement and the Indian arts and crafts movement through the work that she did at the museum. There, she labored to increase public awareness of the importance of art education and to revive Native American arts on the Colorado Plateau. Using an extensive collection of archival material in the Colton Collection at the Museum of Northern Arizona, as well as oral history interviews, this historical study provides a nuanced analysis of Colton’s life as an educator. Colton’s influence is not well known today, but her professional contributions merit recognition, giving her a place in the history of American education. This study reveals how Colton’s efforts fit within the context of the work of her contemporaries in Santa Fe and Taos, and within the progressive education movement, from the then relatively remote outpost of Flagstaff. Much can be learned from Colton’s work that is relevant to the field of education today. Her ideals and writings about art education will resonate with opponents of No Child Left Behind. Colton’s work as one of northern Arizona’s earliest art educators contributed to a better understanding of the culture of the various peoples of the Colorado Plateau and to the preservation of Navajo and Hopi traditions through education. Colton made notable contributions to the Indian arts and crafts movement, museum education, and the progressive education movement. A woman of firm convictions and ideals, Colton was strong-willed, and complex, a multi-faceted person with a broad range of interests which she pursued with passion and commitment. This study crosses the boundaries of several disciplines, including educational history, museum studies, women’s studies, educational biography, Native American studies, and art education. WE MUST GROW OUR OWN ARTISTS: MARY-RUSSELL FERRELL COLTON, NORTHERN ARIZONA’S EARLY ART EDUCATOR AND ADVOCATE by W. James Burns A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Social Foundations of Education in the Department of Educational Policy Studies in the College of Education Georgia State University Atlanta, GA 2010 Copyright by William James Burns 2010 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS A project such as this one cannot be completed without owing a deep debt of gratitude to a great number of people. I am particularly indebted to the staff of the Museum of Northern Arizona, Robert Breunig, Ph.D., Executive Director, Jonathan Pringle, Archivist, Ed Evans, Ph.D., Librarian, Elaine Hughes, Collections Manager, Karen Enyedy, Publications Volunteer, and Pats Shriver, Executive Assistant to Dr. Robert Breunig. Without their assistance this study would not have been possible. I appreciate all of the time that they took out of their busy schedules to located archival materials and artifacts, scan photographs, and provide access to the usually restricted Colton Collection. I am also grateful to all of Mary-Russell Ferrell Colton’s family, friends, and colleagues who took the time to reminisce with me about her. The interviews with her granddaughters Robin and Denise Colton were especially valuable and will now be preserved in the archives at the Museum of Northern Arizona. Robin and Denise’s memories of their grandmother often inspired me to continue writing. Thanks also to Barton and Margaret Wright, Bill Breed, Richard Wilson, Ron Hubert, Marie Stilley for sharing their remembrances of Colton. The assistance of the archivists and curators at the Laboratory of Anthropology and the School of Advanced Research in Santa Fe, the Center for Southwest Research at the University of New Mexico in Santa Fe, Special Collections at Cline Library, Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, Arizona Collection, Hayden Library at Arizona State University in Tempe, and the Billie Jean Baguley Library at the Heard Museum in Phoenix is very much appreciated. I would like to thank my committee members, Dr. Sheryl Gowen, Dr. Barbara Kawulich, Dr. Robert Breunig, Dr. Ann Kruger, and Dr. Chara Bohan, for their assistance in shaping and organizing this study. Each of them brought a wealth of knowledge and a special interest to the study: Dr. Breunig a fascination with Colton and the Museum having worked there for many years, Dr. Kruger a love of art education, Dr. Bohan, interests in women’s history, feminist history, and educational biography, and Dr. Kawulich, interests in Native American Education and ethnography. Thank you to Dr. Gowen for agreeing to chair this committee after two previous committees left the University; had she not done so it would not have been possible for me to complete this study. I wish to offer
