FY 2012 Annual Report Dear Members and Friends,
We launched Fiscal Year 2012 (July 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012) with the Currier’s first video exhibition entitled Shifting Terrain. Organized by Assistant Curator Nina Bozicnik, the exhibition featured nine videos by seven accomplished regional artists, all of whom explored the theme of landscape in distinctive ways. From there, we reflected on the dynamic, turbulent decades of the ‘60s, ‘70s and ‘80s with iconic images in Backstage Pass: Rock and Roll Photography, organized by the Portland Museum of Art, Maine. The FY12 exhibition program celebrated the Currier’s own growing photography collection in a show organized by Kurt Sundstrom, A New Vision: Modernist Photography in Spring 2012. It included more than 103 striking images by Europeans and Americans who images expanded the boundaries of photography with a new abstracted COVER: A family visits the Museum approach to framing everyday subjects. during Vacation Week and enjoys a Drawing in the Gallery program. In its commitment to highlighting the most accomplished artists of ABOVE: Visitors to the exhibition Shifting Terrain: Landscape Video New England, the Currier presented a show featuring the ceramics watch an installation called Dead Standing and Selva Oscura: Drawing of Karen Karnes, a seminal figure in the studio pottery movement; of Dead Standing by Mary Ellen Strom. and Cristi Rinklin’s evocative installation Diluvial, which filled the BOTTOM: Artist Eric Aho teaches a Putnam Gallery with mural-sized paintings, wallpaper and translucent Master Class at the Currier Art Center during his exhibition Transcending images enhanced by sunlight coming through the window wall.

Dear Members and Friends 1 Special exhibitions often inspire engaging education and studio programs. Both Karen Karnes and Eric Aho conducted fully-subscribed master classes which offered insight into their work and techniques to adult students. Cristi Rinklin worked with youth at the Art Center school vacation camp. Her installation Diluvial provided inspiration for a new musical composition created by her colleague at the College of the Holy Cross, Shirish Korde, and performed in the Putnam Gallery.
The Public Programs Department focused this year on making the Museum and its Collections more accessible to those with special needs. Leah Fox, Director of Public Programs, assembled an Access images Advisory Committee, who advised on a range of issues, including the BELOW: Jane Seney (right), development of a multimedia tour that engages both sighted and blind Educator and a young Museum visitor show off their Family visitors, the latter in association with the New Hampshire Association Saturday creations. for the Blind.

Director, at her farewell party. Educator Jane Seney introduced Visual Thinking Strategies into the tour program. Many docents now offer visitors an inquiry-based approach to looking at art which promotes dialogue rather than a lecture-style tour. Teachers, in particular, have found this method very successful in engaging students in conversation about the collections.
As reflected in the complete list of new acquisitions published in this report, a few highlights include the gift of our first painting by Grandma Moses and a stunning watercolor by John Marin; the purchase of the first major painting by a Canadian, Lawren Harris; and the purchase of a group of photographs by Paul Caponigro reflecting his long distinguished career and a video entitled Chocorua, 2011, by Lyn Nofziger who was inspired by the Currier’s holdings of 19th-century White Mountain paintings.
The staff was very involved in preparing for a site visit for reaccreditation by the American Alliance of Museums (AAM, formerly known as the American Association of Museums). This preparation included submission of plans and policies ranging from emergency preparedness and investment policies to the management of the collection and the interpretive plan. We are happy to report that the Currier was reaccredited in December 2012.

As part of our efforts to reduce long-term operating costs, the Currier conducted an energy audit with the support of Public Service of New Hampshire. Over the coming months, the museum will re-commission its HVAC system and begin experimenting with LED lights, among other cost saving measures.
The departure in October 2011 of Susan Leidy, who was the Currier’s Deputy Director and a staff member for 22 years, precipitated a reorganization of the senior management team. This brought key staff positions like the Director of the Art Center (Bruce McColl) and the Director of Public Programs (Leah Fox) onto the executive team joining colleagues in Curatorial, Finance and Development. At the same time, Karen Graham was promoted to Director of Operations and Human Resources. With added responsibilities for operations, food service and theGuild of Volunteers, she too joined the executive team. Sherry Collins, who has ably managed the Finance Department for almost 17 years, was promoted to Chief Financial Officer.
We were also delighted to welcome Christine Louis as the new Director of Development. Under her leadership, the Currier had its most successful Annual Fund in its history and launched the Henry Melville Fuller Society, recognizing those who have included the Currier in their estate plans.

We are grateful to all who have enhanced the experience of our visitors, especially the Guild of Volunteers, who committed more than 9,000 hours in departments ranging from the Museum Shop and Library to the Development and Membership offices. Docents provided tours of the museum to almost 6,800 visitors and almost 4,500 visitors to the Zimmerman House.
Finally, with a goal of making the Currier New Hampshire’s art museum, the Advisory Council offered enriching programs in Keene, Nashua, Concord, Manchester and Portsmouth for more than 435 individuals. During the last half-dozen years, the Council has done tremendous work raising the visibility of the Currier, its collections and programs, to thousands of people.
To our dedicated volunteers, generous supporters, creative and devoted staff and energetic Advisory Council and Board, we thank you for the many ways you contribute to the Currier and to the cultural life of New Hampshire.
Warm regards,
David A. Jensen Susan Strickler President, Board of Trustees Director and CEO

Support & revenues restricted to or designated for $9,735 $9,465 current year’s operations in excess of expenses
NOTE: The pro forma statement of operating activities recognized the investment income and transfers from the endowment funds in accordance with the Board of Trustees funding policy as support revenue rather than all investment income, gains and losses. In addition, certain non-operating expenditures are not recognized, including collection items purchased but not capitalized, depreciation, investment and interest expense; and certain non-operating revenues are not recognized, including gains on sales of deaccessioned art and other gains. Accordingly, this presentation differs significantly from the statement of activities as presented in the Museum’s audited financial statements and from generally accepted accounting principles. The Museum’s policy is to annually allocate 5% of the average valuation of the operating endowment funds over the previous quarters to fund the Museum’s operations, moving toward a 20 quarter average. The fund’s average fair value was determined over the fund’s immediate preceding fourteen quarters for 2012 and twelve quarters for 2011. For the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, 6.1% and 6.0% respectively, of the average valuation of the fair value of endowment funds was allotted to Museum operations. Management believes this pro forma presentation reflects the true support and revenue available to fund the Museum’s annual operating expenses for the periods presented. The Museum does not capitalize its collection and objects of art.
