  • A Tribute to Betty Price Thank You, Betty
    IMPROVING LIVES THROUGH THE ARTSNEWSLETTER OF THE OKLAHOMA ARTS COUNCIL FALL 2007 Thank You, Betty or 33 years, Betty Price has been the voice of the Oklahoma Arts Council. Recently retired Fas Executive Director, Price has been at the helm of this state agency for most of its existence. We couldn’t think of anyone more eloquent than her good friend, Judge Robert Henry to celebrate Betty and her passionate commitment to Oklahoma and to the arts. We join Judge Henry and countless friends in wishing Betty a long, happy and productive retirement. A Tribute to Betty Price From Judge Robert Henry ur great President John Fitzgerald Kennedy once noted: “To further the appreciation of Oculture among all the people, to increase respect for the creative individual, to widen participation by all the processes and fulfillments of art -- this is one of the fascinating challenges of these days.” Betty Price took that challenge more seriously than any other Oklahoman. And, it is almost impossible to imagine what Oklahoma’s cultural landscape would look like without her gentle, dignified, and incredibly Betty in front of the We Belong to the Land mural by Jeff Dodd. persistent vision. Photo by Keith Rinerson forMattison Avenue Publishing Interim Director. Finally, she was selected by the Council to serve as its Executive Director. Betty, it seems, has survived more Oklahoma governors than any institution except our capitol; she has done it with unparalleled integrity and artistic accomplishment.

Sacred Heart Church (1898, 1909) is set at the southeast corner of Fillmore and Fell streets. Sacred Heart School (1926) is immediately east of the church on Fell Street. The rectory (ca. 1891, 1906) is immediately south of the church on Fillmore Street. The convent (1936) fronts Oak Street. An adjacent lot associated with the convent contains a paved parking area. The four lots converge in the center of the block to form an enclosed school yard. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The case before the Historic Preservation Commission is the consideration of the initiation of landmark designation of Sacred Heart Parish Complex as a San Francisco landmark under Article 10 of the Planning Code, Section 1004.1, and recommending that the Board of Supervisors approve of such designation.

  • The Jamison Galleries Collection
    THE JAMISON GALLERIES COLLECTION BETTY W. AND ZEB B. CONLEY PAPERS New Mexico Museum of Art Library and Archives Dates: 1950 - 1995 Extent: 7.33 linear feet Contents Part One. Materials on Artists and Sculptors Part Two. Photographs of Works Part Three. Additional Material Revised 01/11/2018 Preliminary Comments The Jamison Galleries [hereafter referred to simply as “the Gallery”] were located on East Palace Avenue, Santa Fe, from August 1964 until January 1993, at which time it was moved to Montezuma Street. There it remained until December 1997, when it closed its doors forever. Originally owned by Margaret Jamison, it was sold by her in 1974 to Betty W. and Zeb B. Conley. The Library of the Museum of Fine Arts is indebted to the couple for the donation of this Collection. A similar collection was acquired earlier by the Library of the records of the Contemporaries Gallery. Some of the artists who exhibited their works at this Gallery also showed at The Contemporaries Gallery. Included in the works described in this collection are those of several artists whose main material is indexed in their own Collections. This collection deals with the works of a vast array of talented artists and sculptors; and together with The Contemporaries Gallery Collection, they comprise a definitive representation of southwestern art of the late 20th Century. Part One contains 207 numbered Folders. Because the contents of some are too voluminous to be limited to one folder, they have been split into lettered sub-Folders [viz. Folder 79-A, 79-B, etc.]. Each numbered Folder contains material relating to a single artist or sculptor, all arranged — and numbered — alphabetically.

  • Catholic Women Religious in the San Francisco Bay Area, 1850
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Santa Barbara Sisterhood on the Frontier: Catholic Women Religious in the San Francisco Bay Area, 1850- 1925 A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology by Jamila Jamison Sinlao Committee in charge: Professor Denise Bielby, Chair Professor Jon Cruz Professor Simonetta Falasca-Zamponi Professor John Mohr December 2018 The dissertation of Jamila Jamison Sinlao is approved. Jon Cruz Simonetta Falsca-Zamponi John Mohr Denise Bielby, Committee Chair December 2018 Sisterhood on the Frontier: Catholic Women Religious in the San Francisco Bay Area, 1850- 1925 Copyright © 2018 by Jamila Jamison Sinlao iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS In so many ways, this dissertation is a labor of love, shaped by the formative years that I spent as a student at Mercy High School, Burlingame. There, the “Mercy spirit”—one of hospitality and generosity, resilience and faith—was illustrated by the many stories we heard about Catherine McAuley and Mary Baptist Russell. The questions that guide this project grew out of my Mercy experience, and so I would like to thank the many teachers, both lay and religious, who nurtured my interest in this fascinating slice of history. This project would not have been possible without the archivists who not only granted me the privilege to access their collections, but who inspired me with their passion, dedication, and deep historical knowledge. I am indebted to Chris Doan, former archivist for the Sisters of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary; Sister Marilyn Gouailhardou, RSM, regional community archivist for the Sisters of Mercy Burlingame; Sister Margaret Ann Gainey, DC, archivist for the Daughters of Charity, Seton Provincialate; Kathy O’Connor, archivist for the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, California Province; and Sister Michaela O’Connor, SHF, archivist for the Sisters of the Holy Family.

The Bay Plan was prepared by the Commission over a three-year period pursuant to the McAteer-Petris Act of 1965 which established the Commission as a temporary agency to prepare an enforceable plan to guide the future protection and use of San Francisco Bay and its shoreline. In 1969, the Legislature acted upon the Commission’s recommendations in the Bay Plan and revised the McAteer-Petris Act by designating the Commission as the agency responsible for maintaining and carrying out the provisions of the Act and the Bay Plan for the protection of the Bay and its great natural resources and the development of the Bay and shore- line to their highest potential with a minimum of Bay fill.

  • Ethnohistory and Ethnogeography of the Coast Miwok and Their Neighbors, 1783-1840
    ETHNOHISTORY AND ETHNOGEOGRAPHY OF THE COAST MIWOK AND THEIR NEIGHBORS, 1783-1840 by Randall Milliken Technical Paper presented to: National Park Service, Golden Gate NRA Cultural Resources and Museum Management Division Building 101, Fort Mason San Francisco, California Prepared by: Archaeological/Historical Consultants 609 Aileen Street Oakland, California 94609 June 2009 MANAGEMENT SUMMARY This report documents the locations of Spanish-contact period Coast Miwok regional and local communities in lands of present Marin and Sonoma counties, California. Furthermore, it documents previously unavailable information about those Coast Miwok communities as they struggled to survive and reform themselves within the context of the Franciscan missions between 1783 and 1840. Supplementary information is provided about neighboring Southern Pomo-speaking communities to the north during the same time period. The staff of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA) commissioned this study of the early native people of the Marin Peninsula upon recommendation from the report’s author. He had found that he was amassing a large amount of new information about the early Coast Miwoks at Mission Dolores in San Francisco while he was conducting a GGNRA-funded study of the Ramaytush Ohlone-speaking peoples of the San Francisco Peninsula. The original scope of work for this study called for the analysis and synthesis of sources identifying the Coast Miwok tribal communities that inhabited GGNRA parklands in Marin County prior to Spanish colonization. In addition, it asked for the documentation of cultural ties between those earlier native people and the members of the present-day community of Coast Miwok. The geographic area studied here reaches far to the north of GGNRA lands on the Marin Peninsula to encompass all lands inhabited by Coast Miwoks, as well as lands inhabited by Pomos who intermarried with them at Mission San Rafael.
