Sitting on the mighty Ohio River at the point where West Virginia, Ohio and Kentucky meet, Huntington has been nicknamed the “Jewel City.” In its early days the city was a thriving port with steam river boats churning by daily. The captains gave nicknames to the cities they passed for navigational purposes and they dubbed Huntington the "Jewel City." Steam boats shipped lumber and coal to fuel the growth of the railroad extension to the west. This growth was made possible by the city's namesake and founder, Collis P. Huntington, an infamous railroad magnate. Our picturesque city is a year-round destination for beautiful scenery. In the Spring, enjoy the abundance of colorful, blooming dogwood trees that are trademarks of the residential areas. By mid- summer, the nationally renowned Rose Garden of Ritter Park is in full bloom and ready for weddings and garden parties. Winter in Huntington provides a near mystical feel as the river rages past the hibernating hills. Fall foliage presents a gorgeous hillside of orange and yellow trees and a brisk mountain air that inspires the senses. The downtown area is once again a draw for shopping and entertainment, including a modern town square. The streets are alive with people walking from venue to venue or taking advantage of the newly created bike path. Year-round, a variety of festivals and special events draw crowds to Pullman Square, Big Sandy Arena and the historic Keith-Albee Theater. Huntington is also home to Marshall University, which contributes to the heart and soul of the community. On November 14, 1970, a chartered jet transporting 75 Marshall University football players, coaches, staff, and supporters crashed just short of the Tri-State Airport as they neared home. Everyone on board was killed. A movie titled We Are Marshall, starring Matthew McConaughey and Matthew Fox, was released nationally in 2006. It depicts the aftermath of the aviation disaster for the families and university. This disaster united the community in a deep and lasting way, forcing our citizens to re-build and basically start over. At the time, the university was one of the main focuses in the town. Losing the football team, coaches, popular news staff, prominent local families and key business people touched the community at its core and drew everyone together so they could work at rebuilding their lives and their 4 city. That determination still threads its way through the fabric of Huntington and is part of the fuel that powers this project. One reason we are so excited about participating in America In Bloom is because it is a way for us to expand on the amazing things that have already been done in so many of our neighborhoods. From Garden Clubs working on neighborhood projects to children planting community gardens – we already have a great head start. America In Bloom allows us to only get better as we continue to progress, and unite in our Growing Pride! Floral Displays Huntington has long been a city of beautiful yards and public areas. However, seven years ago several events occurred which would lead to a heightened interest in floral displays. A couple, Robin and Gene Howell, took an interest in the appearance of Harris River Front Park and City Hall. They provided their own sweat and money to make both areas a showplace. They provided annual and perennial flowers and maintained them throughout the season. Along the way, they also beautified a war memorial in the front of the downtown post office. As a final gesture they established an endowment to pay for flowers to be purchased in future years at these locations. Unfortunately health issues prevent them from actively doing the work to maintain these areas. During this timeframe, Cathy Burns, Executive Director of the Huntington/Ironton Empowerment Zone, purchased 50 hanging baskets to place in the downtown area. She provided funding for the purchase of flowers and the maintenance of the hanging baskets the first year. After that first year, a change occurred in the administration at city hall and the new mayor brought Tom Bell on board as his Economic Development Director. Cathy Burns approached Mr. Bell about taking over the task of maintaining the hanging baskets due to funding shortfalls. Mr. Bell was able to secure a truck and the necessary equipment to do the watering. He was able to 5 secure a donation from the Jr. League Garden Club to purchase flowers and through the use of volunteers was able to plant the hanging baskets. The Jr. League Garden Club and the Cabell County Master Gardeners provided the volunteer effort to plant the hanging baskets. Because there was no remaining money, Mr. Bell and his wife watered the baskets each day at 4:30am from May 15th to Oct. 15th that second year. A number of events have occurred since those beginnings and Huntington is now up to 150 hanging baskets as well as 60 large pots which are placed strategically on street corners and elsewhere. Most of these pots came through a partnership with the Pullman Square Shopping Complex. Also, by partnering with Bob’s Market and Greenhouse, we are able to have our hanging baskets pre-planted and delivered after the last frost is expected. City crews hang the baskets for us. We also purchase the needed flowers to plant our large pots and ground areas in our municipal parking lots. Volunteers assist us in these plantings. The watering task is now performed by clients of the Coalition for the Homeless through a partnership with Huntington in Bloom, the city and the Municipal Parking Authority. This provides their clients with training and skill development opportunities. The theme for this year’s beautification efforts is red, white and blue. The hanging baskets will have the “Flag Mix” of Petunias. The large pots will have a general layout of a Red Grass (chiller), Evolvulus (filler) and Confetti mix (spiller), Calibrachoa, Verbena and petunia. We will use red, white and blue verbena for other areas. The ground areas in the public parking lots will have Vinca Titan red and white and Victoria Salvia for the blue. We will allow some of our volunteers to create “wow” pots of flowers they select on their own. The municipal areas being planted include Marshall University, the public parks, City Hall, the County Courthouse, and the Civic Center as well as the municipal parking lots, the streetscapes and the street corners. We have plans to encourage local businesses to clean up and plant their respective property. We will have recognition for those businesses which do an outstanding job. The residential areas will also be included in our suggested planting theme and we will also recognize and reward outstanding achievement. Lisa McComas, Master Gardener, member and former president of the Huntington Council of Garden Clubs and Donna Rumbaugh, owner of Perennial Favorites Nursery, have chosen the flowers and designed the layouts for the large pots and various areas which will be planted in and around the city. They have enlisted the aid of the garden clubs and master gardeners to oversee volunteers and to assist 6 in the planting efforts. Specific garden clubs will be responsible for pruning, weeding and maintaining specific assigned areas. Landscaped Areas Huntington has a number of lovely, well maintained, landscaped areas allowing residents the opportunity to stroll along the majestic Ohio River, meander through a classically-styled rose garden, and enjoy the time in nature. The community’s park system features a dozen beautiful public spaces. Located downtown, the David Harris Riverfront Park stretches along the Ohio River. It provides a tranquil setting, allowing guests an opportunity to stroll a tree-lined path, play in an outdoor playground, and enjoy a lunchtime picnic. The Park also features an amphitheater overlooking the Ohio River. The amphitheater hosts the Huntington Symphony Orchestra’s Summer POPS series, as well as other performances. An interactive walking trail with eight permanent markers designed by famed artists Chuck Ripper was dedicated in 2010. Each marker contains between 8 and 15 Ripper renditions of creatures living along the Ohio River. The park also serves the boating community with a boat ramp, marina, and restaurant. Recognized by the American Planning Association as one of Americas 10 Great Public Spaces for 2012, Ritter Park is the gemstone of the city’s park system. A walking path, children’s playground and exercise stations dot the 75-acre linear park. It is under the master plan of the Greater Huntington Parks & Recreation District. The GHPRD owns and/or operates park areas, a maintenance center, Heritage Station, 4 cemeteries and some undeveloped holdings. There is an outdoor amphitheater in the interior heart of Ritter Park and is active throughout the summer with musical and theatrical productions. The Rose Garden is located on the west side of the central part of Ritter Park.

Registration does not imply endorsement. Letter from the Executive Director Dear Members, On November 9, 1952, the Huntington Museum of Art opened its doors for the first time. As a fledgling institution it struggled throughout the years but because of the efforts of many, many committed individuals, it slowly grew into the incredible arts organization that it is today. This fall, HMA will celebrate sixty years of serving this community; sixty years of professional, high quality art exhibitions; and sixty years of fostering creativity in children and adults – no small accomplishment. On November 9, 2012, HMA will open its sixtieth anniversary exhibit, Mr. Fitz, honoring Herbert Fitzpatrick, the man who donated the land where HMA is sited and his personal art holdings, which became the original permanent collection of our Museum. One of the important things about Mr. Fitz, as he was fondly called, was that he wanted to be sure that the community truly wanted and would support an institution such as this. So, he challenged the community to raise the funds to construct the Shown is an aerial photograph from 1951 of construction on the future Huntington Gal- facility as a prerequisite to his gifts.

West Virginia residents may obtain a summary of the registration and financial documents from the Secretary of State, State Capitol, Charleston, WV 25305. Registration does not imply endorsement. Letter from the Executive Director Dear Members, When you work somewhere for a long time, it is always a challenge to maintain an open viewpoint and think outside the box. That is why it is always informative when new employees come to work here and we have the opportunity to hear their perspectives on who we are and what we do. More than 10 years ago, when Jenine Culligan, HMA’s Senior Curator, came to work here, she had some excellent thoughts about the Gropius Master Artist Workshop Program. She suggested that HMA’s Gropius program should grow its focus on clay artists. She noted that having a greater emphasis on clay was in keeping with the vision of Walter Gropius to provide a workshop of ideas where a synthesis of art, design and form is created; to make everything beautiful – even the most functional of objects. Like many great ideas that happen up here, it began percolating in people’s minds and began to inform decisions being made Museum- wide. Lots of serendipitous things occurred. The Education Department, under the direction of Katherine Cox, began slowly to incorporate clay activities into new and existing programming. Kathleen Kneafsey became HMA’s Ceramic Artist in Residence and participated in the Gropius Program’s selection process having a tremendous impact in bringing more ceramic artists to HMA.
