Description The Mount Hope Historic District (Photos 1-25; Figs. 1-12) is a 58-acre mixed-use historic district located in the city of Mount Hope, a community of c. 1,700 in the mountains of Fayette County, West Virginia, approximately eight miles north of the city of Beckley. Mount Hope lies in the coal fields of the south-central portion of the state and the historic district lies on both sides of Main Street and also includes portions of some intersecting and parallel streets. The nominated area contains a total of 170 resources, including commercial and industrial buildings, public and private institutional properties, domestic architecture, a 1939 25-unit public housing project designed by a leading West Virginia architect, along with roadways, historic retaining walls, historic structures, one historic object, a cemetery, and a historic sports facility. One previously-listed property is in the district, the New River Company General Office Building (NR 2004; Resource No. 57; Photo 12). This property appears in the Resource Inventory and on the district map, but is not included in the resource count appearing in Section 5. Of the 170 unlisted resources, 150 contribute to the character of the district and 20 are noncontributing features. Contributing elements are those which both date from within the period of significance of the district and retain individual integrity, while non-contributing resources are those which post-date the period of significance and/or have undergone unsympathetic alteration to the extent that they no longer retain those physical characteristics which define their historic character. Noncontributing resources are scattered throughout the district and their presence fails to diminish the otherwise strong integrity of the nominated area. The district as a whole retains integrity in all of its component qualities and reflects the basic appearance which it enjoyed at the end of the period of significance which begins in 1895, the date marking the incorporation of the community, and ends c. 1957, corresponding to the National Register 50-year guideline. The Mount Hope Historic District is divided nearly evenly between residential and commercial buildings, with the remainder including several historic churches (Resource Nos. 25,46,92, and 95; Photo 20), two schools (Resource Nos. 98, 99; Photo 11), an athletic playing field (Resource No. 101; Photo 13), a historic YMCA (Resource No. 1; Photo 10; Fig. 11) and a Masonic Lodge building (Resource No. 2; Photo 9; Fig. 6). "Stadium Terrace" is a 25-unit public housing project (Resource Nos. 146-171; Photos

  • Curator of Native American Art DEPARTMENT: Curatorial SUPERVISOR: Chief Curator DIRECT REPORTS: None LAST REVISION DATE: August 2020
    POSITION DESCRIPTION POSITION TITLE: Curator of Native American Art DEPARTMENT: Curatorial SUPERVISOR: Chief Curator DIRECT REPORTS: none LAST REVISION DATE: August 2020 The Montclair Art Museum is conducting a search to fill a three-year position of Curator of Native American Art. Funded by the Luce Foundation, the position offers an exciting opportunity for the Curator to work with the Museum’s renowned collection of Native art of North America. Overview The Montclair Art Museum (MAM) is currently accepting applications for a three- year, grant funded position of Curator of Native American Art. The Museum’s goal is to engage in further fundraising to establish this position as permanent. The selected hire will have a unique opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the presentation of MAM’s renowned collection of Native art of North America in its dedicated Rand Gallery and throughout the Museum more broadly. The Curator will work to achieve key goals of engaging current, innovative ideas around the representation of Indigenous communities and art museum collections and exhibitions, via collaborative approaches. Throughout the three- year period, the Curator will have access to an eight member Advisory Board of leading Native and non-Native scholars and artists, as well as MAM’s Chief Curator, all of whom will offer ideas and perspectives for consideration in developing the Museum’s Native American programs. The Curator will oversee the presentation of the Fall 2021 incoming traveling exhibition, Color Riot!, from the Heard Museum, featuring Navajo textiles from c. 1860 to 2018. Additional projects will include curating a site-specific artistic intervention opening in early 2022, and will culminate in September 2023 with a new installation of the Museum’s Native American collections in the Rand Gallery.

It will interpret the history of women and museums and the impact on the institution by surveying existing literature on feminism and museums and the biographies of a few notable female curators. As this paper hopes to encourage global thinking, museums from outside the western sphere will be included and emphasized. Specifically, it will look at organizations in the Middle East and that exist in only a digital format. This will lead to an analysis of today’s feminist principles applied specifically to the museum and its link with online platforms.
