After living in Seattle from 1915 to 1929, she moved to New York and immersed herself in the world of art and artists. She learned the business side of art by working in a gallery. In 1942 she returned to Seattle. After years of privately building her own collection she opened a gallery in her Lakeview Place home in 1950. Showing modern artists through her contacts in New York and Europe, she also promoted Norjhwest painters, some of whom, including Mark Tobey, achieved world wide renown. Financial problems and displacement by a new freeway (her gallery moved to 532 Broadway East in 1959) made the last years of her professional life difficult. She retired in 1964 and died in Seattle in 1972. CONTENT Zoe Dusanne's interests, friends, and business revolved around the art world.

This is a trying time and we have all been affected by what has transpired in the first few months of 2020. There are a couple of changes to the 2019 Annual Report that we would like to make explicitly clear. First, the Board of Trustees chose to forego an independent audit of the Museum’s finances for 2019. Because of its operating budget, the Museum is not required by federal law to undergo an annual audit. The Board chose to realize the cost savings possible through eliminating an expense that was about 2% of the annual operating budget. Instead, we plan to conduct an audit on a triennial or quadrennial schedule. The Board believes this plan to be sustainable, given the detailed oversight that is provided by the Finance Committee.
