  • Community Resource and Public Asset for Everyone
    Husky Stadium community resource and public asset for everyone UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON Husky Stadium “Every citizen of Washington should be proud to know that the greatest stadium in the world will be built on the campus of our own State University. Generations of Washingtonians will visit it at its beautiful and permanent home on the shores of Lake Washington. They will see it for what it is— an imperishable monument to the friendship and generous support which the people of this commonwealth have always accorded their University.” Associated Students of the University of Washington, 1920 Husky Stadium community resource and public asset For close to a century, Husky Stadium has served as a community resource and an important symbol of the State of Washington’s commitment to higher education. It is a regional landmark, home to historic football victories and also the host of more than 55 community events involving more than 88,000 people every year, including over 600,000 Husky football fans. Through the decades, the UW and the local community have reinforced Husky Stadium’s identity as a public facility serving a public purpose, rejecting offers to lease it out permanently for professional football or other sports. UW students, alumni, and other citizens have provided important financial support over the years that has expanded the Stadium’s capacity and preserved its structural integrity without having to draw upon public funds. Financing the stadium has never been easy —the student fundraising drive for the $300,000 needed to build it in 1920 was $100,000 in debt on the stadium’s opening day.

  • The Artists' View of Seattle
    WHERE DOES SEATTLE’S CREATIVE COMMUNITY GO FOR INSPIRATION? Allow us to introduce some of our city’s resident artists, who share with you, in their own words, some of their favorite places and why they choose to make Seattle their home. Known as one of the nation’s cultural centers, Seattle has more arts-related businesses and organizations per capita than any other metropolitan area in the United States, according to a recent study by Americans for the Arts. Our city pulses with the creative energies of thousands of artists who call this their home. In this guide, twenty-four painters, sculptors, writers, poets, dancers, photographers, glass artists, musicians, filmmakers, actors and more tell you about their favorite places and experiences.

  • Oral History Interview with Edward B. Thomas, 1983 April 28-May 10
    Oral history interview with Edward B. Thomas, 1983 April 28-May 10 Funding for the digital preservation of this interview was provided by a grant from the Save America's Treasures Program of the National Park Service. 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.
