October 21, 1963 a Report on the First Year's Operation of Seattle Center THE SEATTLE CENTER "The First Year" October 21, 1963 A report on the first year's operation of Seattle Center, following the 1962 Seattle World's Fair -- prepared by Century 21 Center, Inc., in cooperation with the City of Seattle, Pacific Science Center Foundation and other participants in the coordi­ nated Seattle Center program, SEATTLE CENTER When the Worldfs Fair was planned Seattle made a promise to itself that it would justify the Fair effort with a permanent Seattle Center* This summer"saw the beginning of the fulfillment of that promise. We already have our Opera House, our Playhouse and Exhibi­ tion Hall in full operation. The buildings have enabled us to invite conventions larger than Seattle ever was able to accom­ modate in the past. This winter we will enjoy a season of famous plays in the Playhouse with the distinguished professional acting company of the Repertory Theatre. By the spring of 1964 the Coliseum will be ready for the full-time use of sports and other recreational activities* One of the most valuable gifts left to Seattle by the Fair is the Pacific Science Center. This invaluable adjunct to our schools is also one of the highlights for adults visiting the Center, All of us who entertained out-of-town visitors this past summer — and that includes most Seattle residents —. were grate­ ful for the diversions and entertainment offered in our Center. In its beautiful park-like grounds we were proud to take visitors to the Pacific Science Center, to the many outstanding offerings at the Opera House and Playhouse, to the gay Food Circus and other attractions, Blanks to the untiring efforts of civic leaders who direct Century 21 Center, Incorporated, the non-profit corporation, private money has been made available and direction is being given to coordinate the activities within the Center. In the development of these attractions all Seattle has a stake# A successful Center will be a focal point in attracting conventions and tourists, in presenting cultural and entertain­ ment events. All the operations within the Center are necessary to its success# Seattle has made a good beginning. To develop the area to its rich potential will require the enthusiasm and support of all of us. Gordon S. Clinton, Mayor City of Seattle SEATTLE CENTER The Seattle City Council has been closely linked with development of the permanent Seattle Center, which we regard as a keystone of our community development. Through our Civic Center Coordinator, Councilman Braman, and through frequent involvement of the Council as a whole, we have guided the Seattle Center total plan along its first year of growth. We feel the City's investment has been a good one and that the public benefit already is significant. Yet this is only the beginning. As the Center continues to develop, its role in cultural and entertainment activities will be of incalculable benefit to our community and the region as a wholes Floyd C.

David Levine Dr* R. Philip Smith Hon*. Clarence Massart SEATTLE CENTER The Seattle Center stands as dramatic testimony to the vigor of the people of the City and the State, and yet represents one of its sternest challenges? to continue the climb to greatness. Nowhere in this mangnificeht civic complex are these truths more evident than at the Pacific Science Center. Here, the Federal Government invested $10,000,000 to tell the story of science in the belief that our community could at­ tract millions from home and abroad to hear that story. After this was successfully accomplished, the Federal Government be­ lieved further that we could build this exhibit into one of the world's finest permanent science centers devoted to science education and to the better public understanding and apprecia­ tion of science. What a tribute to the people of our regionI And what a challenge. The non-profit Pacific Science Center Foundation was created to meet this challenge, with the help of Senator Magnuson and our congressional delegation, and opened for business the day after the World's Fair closed. Although significant financial problems remain, a difficult year of adjustment and development is behind us, The Pacific Science Center now is moving with quickening stride toward ful­ filling its vital role for an enlightened community. Our pro­ grams are reaching into schools, into scientific societies and into study groups of many kinds. The challenges that face the Pacific Science Center are being met with enthusiasm and confidence. Edward E.

Welsh Superintendent of Maintenance Mr. Bruce Wendorff Manager of Sound and Projection SEATTLE CENTER When the City of Seattle created a non-profit corporation to help the City mold a permanent civic center from the legacy of the World's Fair, it was, in effect, asking private enterprise to stand up beside city government in a monumental civic building project* And, as in creating its Fair, the community had no pre-charted course to follow. The City deemed a private corporation essential to the fullest involvement of business and risk capital at the Center. It determined that such a corporation would, in the fewest years, activate broad community participation while eventually creating revenues for the Seattle Center and the City. This has been a year of hope, of trial, of error, and yet of unquestioned success* Our corporation, working with the many other civic and private enter­ prises at the Center, has created a program of constant activity by the people of this region. On the pages that follow, we have described many of these programs as carried out by our corporation and by others during this year of creation. We are confident that the faith of our city govern­ ment, our business community through its underwriting, and our fellow citizens will be justified by the role of our corporation in helping to build the world's greatest cultural and entertainment center.

Contact Information Reference Department Archives of American Art Smithsonian Institution Washington. D.C. 20560 www.aaa.si.edu/askus Transcript Preface The following oral history transcript is the result of a tape-recorded interview with Edward B. Thomas on April 28 & May 10, 1983. The interview took place in Seattle, Washington, and was conducted by John Olbrantz for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. Interview DATE: APRIL 28, 1983 [Tape 1] JOHN OLBRANTZ: Ed, can you tell me a little bit about your background, where you were born, your early childhood experiences, your parents, who your father was, who your mother was, how they came to live in this part of the country? EDWARD THOMAS: Well, I was born in Cosmopolis, Washington, and many times when I've come through customs, when I was much younger and especially at the Mexican border, they would say, "Where were you born?" and I'd say, "Cosmopolis, Washington," they'd say, "Look, bud! Don't get funny with us." (laughter) But there actually is such a place as Cosmopolis, Washington. Nobody had any particular influence upon me, I would say, in my younger years as far as becoming interested in art, and particularly teaching art. I had a very severe illness when I was four and five years old and was confined to bed a lot, and so people brought me tablets and color crayons and pencils and stuff like that.

I know the sun's out, the caterpillars and things coming out soon; but talking about the art scene, I have been reading a very interesting thing that was sent to me, once again, by Wesley Wehrÿ-- the talk that Henry Geldzahler gave to Yale, I think almost a year ago, about what he felt about the state of the New York scene, and the scene of art, generally speaking in the world. He said some very cogent things all through it, things that I think probably will apply for quite a long time, particularly to those people and a lot of young people who are so interested in the arts. Do you want to see that? MK: Sure. [Break in tape] MK: Go ahead.

The interview took place in Seattle, WA, and was conducted by Dorothy Bestor for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. Interview [Bracketed remarks added by James Fitzgerald upon review of transcript.] DOROTHY BESTOR: Well, let's see, before you went to the Art Center [in Spokane] you had gotten a degree here in architecture and you had worked with Thomas Hart Benton? JAMES FITZGERALD: That's right. DOROTHY BESTOR: Had that been any of the WPA things? JAMES FITZGERALD: No. [Tom Benton to my knowledge did not work on any WPA murals.] DOROTHY BESTOR: Oh, I though he — well, didn't he get some commissions for Treasury murals? JAMES FITZGERALD: No. [His commissions came from the Whitney Museum, New School for Social Research and the State of Missouri.] DOROTHY BESTOR: Oh. JAMES FITZGERALD: In fact, when I was out in Missouri there wasn't very much of an art project. It was very small, and they didn't do very much at all in real art. DOROTHY BESTOR: So the Spokane one was your first contact with any of the government art projects? JAMES FITZGERALD: [My first contact with government art was in the year 1933 or 1934, when Vic Steinbrauch and I were selected by the Treasury Department Art Program to depict the landscape of the West.
