Celebrating 20 Years THE JOURNEY MUSEUM & LEARNING CENTER 2016 ANNUAL REPORT CELEBRATING 20 YEARS A Vision Realized The Journey Celebrates It began in 1984 as an idea to create a place that would forever hold our community’s proud past and celebrate its unique heritage and culture. The dreaming started to become more formalized as the idea of a “Spirit of the Black Hills” Museum evolved from a City Cultural Steering Committee in 1991. From that point, the idea started to build steam and became revisioned as “The Journey Museum”. Bolstered by a newly established Vision Fund, The Journey Museum started to come to life. As ground was broken, the new Museum Alliance of Rapid City began to find its way to operational destiny. Perhaps, almost in poetic justice of the tough stories The Journey told of human fortitude when no common man or woman would stay and preserve, it struggled. The Journey struggled to find acceptance, to find its name, to define its moments. Still men and women persisted to preserve our past in the face of public scrutiny. The Journey Museum continued, and struggled to survive in the face of long odds to become The Journey Museum and Learning Center. Today, though, we reach a moment in time where we celebrate the path blazed before us and look to the skies in thanks for reaching this day. Today, we celebrate 20 years; celebrate covering all of our fixed costs and becoming operationally sound. Today, we know we serve our community at a level not reached in the past. Troy Kilpatrick, Executive Director Today, we are challenged to communicate why The Journey Museum and Learning Center is so important. Many of you reading this already know, better than myself, how irreplaceable our history can become. Like baseball cards thrown away by Mom, or a house torn from its foundation -- once it is gone, it is gone -- and those memories will surely fade and become impossible to pass along to the generations that follow. Can you help me communicate to our community how incredibly important it is to understand we are who we are today, thanks to where we have been? We at The Journey Museum and Learning Center need your support, as some wish to understand us through a business-oriented profit and loss statement. A profit and loss statement would not calculate the intrinsic value of our past. Here at The Journey Museum and Learning Center, we also believe that we are part of the future as we create new knowledge and teach the next generation to be inquisitive, to understand diversity, and to embrace our entire community. We believe we serve a very important role as a conversation and gathering place for community members. If you have not visited recently, please do so; we have a lot to offer to the community and we know there is more opportunity to do so as the future comes. As we move forward, it is always important to know one thing: The Journey will only continue through all of you! Troy Kilpatrick, Executive Director OUR MISSION Preserve, educate and explore the heritage, cultures and environment of the Black Hills region to understand our past, enrich our present and sustain our future. OUR VISION • Inspire all audiences to learn and play in a vibrant and dynamic atmosphere; • Create wonder and curiosity through exhibits and programs that lead to life-long learning; • Reveal cultural, historical, and scientific connections to foster new knowledge, appreciation and understanding in our community and its visitors. 2 Reflecting on Our Accomplishments Dear Partners and Friends, It is an honor to serve this year as Board Chairperson for The Journey Museum & Learning Center. Since joining the Board in 2014, I have seen The Journey staff under the leadership of Troy Kilpatrick accomplish many great things in this past year, including: • The Journey Museum was transformed to be both a museum and learning center, incorporating a new name, “The Journey Museum & Learning Center” and filled with fantastic new programs such as Turtle Soup and Learning Forums • The Journey Museum & Learning Center was rated as a top tourist destination by Yahoo! Style, Courier Magazine, Tripadvisor, and Orbitz • Overall attendance increased by 9% • Tour buses visiting the museum grew by 39% • Income grew by 4.5% • Costs were reduced by $36,969 or 5.2% Jim Green, Board Chairperson • Overall financials improved from ($48,356) in 2015 to $11,846 in the black for 2016 The Journey Museum & Learning Center is, indeed, “A Vision Realized”!

O’Harra Collection, Glass Lantern Slides and Glass Plate Negatives page 1 Title C.C. O’Harra Collection: Glass Lantern Slides and Glass Plate Negatives Extent 1509 items: 1227 glass lantern slides, 282 glass plate negatives; 1358 unique images Scope and Content The C.C. O’Harra Collection consists of papers, publications, photographs, maps, and files of South Dakota School of Mines president and professor Cleophus Cisney O’Harra. The Devereaux Library’s glass lantern, sometimes referred to as magic lantern, collection consists of over 1200—3 ¼“ x 4” numbered slides and vary in subject matter from geology to meteorology to campus history and include photographs, drawings and maps of international, regional and historical interest. The glass plate negatives consist of 282 plates. The plates are of two size formats—4” x 5” and 5” x 7”, and have an unprotected photo emulsion on the back side. The purpose of the items was primarily instructional. They were produced either from a stationary camera, as shown in the photo or “on site” from a more portable unit. Glass plates were the first step in the reproduction process and, as is evidenced by the notations in the margins of many of the originals, were later submitted to a commercial photo processor to be made into glass slides Provenance The glass lantern slides and glass plate negatives have been a part of the university‘s holdings for several decades.

The company absorbed smaller utilities. It offered power and transmission services to other areas in collaboration with public power agencies and rural electric cooperatives. But tensions with the rural cooperatives were building over territories and customers.
