  • Annual Report 2015
    ANNUAL REPORT 2015 Celebrating 6 5 Years Building on Solid Success Dear Members and Friends, During 2015, while the Vanderbilt celebrated its 65th anniversary, we continued to make substantial progress in major gifts, collections support and restoration, education outreach, and membership building. In its biggest news of the year, the Vanderbilt received two significant grants that have allowed us to perform crucial conservation and restoration measures on specimens in our rare marine and wild-animal collections. The Robert D. L. Gardiner Foundation gift of $135,000 supports essential work on more than 1,000 wet specimens, part of the largest privately assembled collection of pre-atomic-era sea life. The Roy M. Speer Foundation’s second $100,000 gift has made it possible for us to continue the extensive restoration, modernization and technological update of the Stoll Letter Wing animal habitats. The gift is a continuation of the foundation’s initial gift of $100,000 in 2012. The Stoll Wing modernization includes the installation of electronic information kiosks, from which visitors can learn about the animals exhibited in the dioramas, which were brought back from around the world by Charles and Merle Stoll during the early and mid- twentieth century. We completed two crucial facilities projects this year – the total renovation of the public restrooms at the Museum gate house entrance and construction of a new, separate, ADA- compliant family restroom in the Planetarium. Planning is underway for the creation of the Under the Stars Café in the Reichert Planetarium lobby. This summer, we plan to enhance Planetarium programming with the installation of a laser-light entertainment system with a wide assortment of shows and education programming.
