Board of Trustees It is with deep gratitude that I share with you the names Vige Barrie, Chair of our generous supporters who are committed to their Mark D. Levitt, Vice Chair belief in the importance of the arts. As former President Linda B. Vincent, Secretary Lyndon Johnson once stated: “Art is a nation’s most Natalie Brown precious heritage. For it is in our works of art that we Steven J. Brown reveal to ourselves and to others the inner vision which Michael D. Cominsky guides us as a nation. And where there is no vision, the Joseph J. Corasanti people perish.” The Board of Trustees and staff of MWPAI William C. Craine Richard R. Griffith are grateful to our members and supporters who have Donna Harkavy the vision to help enhance the legacy of the Institute’s Steven R. Kowalsky founding families. Peggy O’Shea It is also a tremendous pleasure to share the Institute’s Michael D. Damsky, Trustee Emeritus many notable accomplishments from July 1, 2017 John B.

Anna Tobin D’Ambrosio President & CEO 2 2017-18 Annual Report Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute The mission of the Performing Arts Division is to present a broad range of exemplary programs and educational opportunities in the performing and cinematic arts. Performing Arts The 2017-2018 Performing Arts season provided an outstanding series of concerts, films and special events supported by comprehensive multi-media marketing campaigns that attracted 14,889 patrons in overall participation. The season included 13 live performances, 192 film screenings, 10 live opera simulcasts, and two meet- the-artist receptions. The Concerts in the Court series offered four performances featuring some of the finest national touring artists available. The first concert of the season, selected to complement the Museum of Art exhibition Roaring into the Future, featured jazz of the 1920s and ‘30s performed by The Hot Sardines. The remaining three concerts offered traditional jazz by master pianist Kenny Barron, contemporary Irish music by award-winning ensemble Goitse, and Grammy-winning string ensemble Turtle Island Quartet exploring the works and influences of the legendary Charlie Parker. The For Kids and Families series pre- sented three events for young audiences in the Sinnott Family – Bank of Utica Audito- rium and co-presented an additional event with the New Hartford Central School District. The season featured a return engagement of the very popular DuffleBag Theatre Co. with their hilarious version of Little Red Riding Hood. The series also The Met: Live in HD featured Grammy-winning children’s Tosca musician Tim Kubart, and the action- packed antics of the Bindlestiff Family Cirkus. The Let’s Go Science Show, co-presented with the New Hartford 2017-18 Annual Report 3 Central School District, introduced young audiences to science facts through fun- Selected Shorts filled experiments and demonstrations. Jeffrey Siegel continued to delight and inform his audiences with another series of Keyboard Conversations. The four concerts for this season featured selections by Chopin, Debussy, Schumann, Bach, and a season-ending celebration of the life and work of Leonard Bernstein. Selected Shorts: Live in Performance returned for a very special program of short stories told live on stage by stars of the stage and screen. James Naughton, Jayne Atkinson and Michel Gill shared a spellbinding evening of holiday short sto- ries by established and emerging authors. The Film Series offered a selection of re- Film Series Victoria and Abdul nowned independent films, documentaries and foreign features. The season featured 12 fewer screenings than most years due to cancelation for inclement weather and a three-week hiatus for venue repairs. The Met: Live in HD continued to grow in popularity with another full season of 10 live opera simulcasts. Series and program sponsors, individual contributors, government and foundation granting organizations, program adver- tisers, trade-for-service participants and dedicated MWPAI funds provided vital financial and in-kind support. New avenues of contributed income continue to be developed and implemented as feasible.

PrattMWP College of Art and Design Community Arts Education The PrattMWP College of Art and Design School of Art concluded 2017-2018 with the most successful year in its 18-year history, achieving record-high enrollment and retention. The fall semester began with 119 freshmen (19 above target) and 92 sopho- mores (12 above target). While these achievements can be attributed to several external factors including favorable economic trends and growth in visual-dependent media, our growth can be specifically isolated to the joint effort between the upstate and downstate campuses in bringing attention to the notable job done by our stellar faculty and students. This growth was complemented by the implementation of Pratt’s new comprehen- sive curriculum overhaul, which affects every department and introduces numerous innovative classes. The new curriculum addresses the ever-changing criteria for educating artists in today’s cultural landscape and marketplace. Significant changes were also made to increase the number of classrooms. The School of Art Gallery space was converted to a classroom and the exhibition space began its first year inside the Museum of Art. Under new Gallery Coordinator Shannon Stockbridge, the transition was seamless and the space worked out wonder- fully in bringing students through the Museum on a regular basis. The MWPAI- owned building at 1222 State Street was renovated and now houses an illustration classroom and several faculty offices. Commencement was held May 9 and featured recent Pratt graduates Meijun Cai and Estefanny Ramirez as guest speakers.

The direction, strategies and projects identified in the enclosed New York State Downtown Revitalization Initiative application will guide our efforts to reinvigorate the heart of Utica. The City is poised for significant community transformation centered in economic development and growth. The $10 million Downtown Revitalization Initiative investment would allow government, private business, non-profit organizations and residents to capitalize on these emerging opportunities before us. Our community identified the character and authenticity of Downtown Utica as something to be developed and built upon. By filling vacant storefronts, providing urban living opportunities, enhancing public spaces, supporting business development and highlighting our diversity, we will make Utica a more vibrant, livable and sustainable community. With strong public-private partnerships, I am confident we can create transformative change and unprecedented opportunity, not just for the City of Utica, but for the entire Mohawk Valley Region. I am proud to submit our application for the Downtown Revitalization Initiative and look forward to making this vision for Downtown Utica a reality.

    ANNUAL REPORT 2010-2011 Cover: John William Hill, American (1812-79) Still Life with Fruit, 1866 THE MUNSON-WILLIAMS-PROCTOR ARTS INSTITUTE’S MISSION IS — to serve diverse audiences by advancing the appreciation, understanding and enjoyment of the arts — to promote interest and participation in the arts — to engender artistic self-expression and personal creativity — to assume a leadership and advocacy role for the arts Message from the Acting President Contents It has been my privilege to serve as the Acting President of the 3 Museum of Art Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute during this, our 75th Anniversary year. While our celebration of this milestone event 6 Performing Arts would no doubt please our Founding Families, it is by no means the culmination of their vision. The legacy that the Munson, 9 School of Art Williams, and Proctor families intended was far broader than just a peerless collection of art. They knew that an appreciation of 12 Supporters fine art and music, and a sound art education were important to citizens of a modern, progressive society. Their vision of a thriving 16 Annual Operating Fund city and region depended upon an institution, such as ours, emerging as a social, cultural and educational center. 18 Annual Attendance We are proud that for 75 years we have developed, enhanced, and embraced that vision. We continue to do so today, despite 19 Sponsors economic and demographic pressures. The national economic recession has challenged many not-for-profit organizations, par- ticularly those, like us, that rely heavily upon endowment income. A diminished market value of the underlying assets and a historically low return on the remaining investments confronts our governing body with the need to budget carefully in order to preserve the endowment for future generations.
