LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

Dear Friends This year marks the 125th anniversary of North Bennet Street School. It has been a year of many accomplishments and celebrations. Craft in America , a public television program featuring the work of the school, was broadcast nationally and an exhibition of student and alumni work at The Concord Museum was seen by thousands. A stunning show of our graduates' work held at the WGBH television studios in May was the best-attended and most successful Annual Evening of Traditional Craft ever. These anniversary events were intentionally focused on the present and the future rather than the past, but it is impossible to ignore the continuing influence of the school’s history on what we do now and how we plan for the future. One striking example of how history has influenced our current programs is the return of woodworking classes for public school students at the nearby John Eliot K-8 School -- a program that first began in 1883 and continued for over 30 years until manual arts training was made compulsory in Boston schools. We re-initiated the program this year because now, as then, the manual-arts do not have a well-understood place in public school education. From its inception, North Bennet Street School has championed the impor - tance of teaching hand-skills to young students as they develop their intellec - tual skills and begin the process of identifying their unique talents. We are pleased to host the latest generation of Eliot School students through this grant-funded pilot program. The theme for this annual report -- a snap - shot of the class of 2010 -- is a response to a photograph of students gathered outside 39 North Bennet Street 100 years ago. We restaged the historic photograph because

As you can see from the group picture on the cover and the class pictures inside, we continue to enjoy a sense of community created over many decades by students who have found a home at North Bennet Street School. As we work in the present, plan for the future, and appreciate the past, we are grateful for the myriad contributions of faculty, students, alumni, donors and friends. Thank you for making all that we do possible.

HIGHLIGHTS 2009-2010

A SNAPSHOT OF SPECIAL EVENTS AND ACHIEVEMENTS

North Bennet Street School received national c e attention when it was featured in the new PBS series Craft in America . The school was profiled in Process , the c episode that focused on what inspires a person to choose a career in craft and how one pursues that dream. c In August 2009, the school exceeded its goal to e raise $300,000 for scholarships before the end of c the calendar year. The incentive to reach the goal was created by a generous offer to match the funds if the goal photo courtesy of Craft in America c was met. As a result of exceeding the goal, the matching funder increased the match by $50,000. The second goal was met for a total of $350,000 in matching funds, bring - c ing the value of the scholarship fund to over $1,000,000. c A new Furniture Design Certificate program e created through the synergy of the extraordinary c and complementary strengths of two Boston institutions – North Bennet Street School and Massachusetts College of Art and Design – offers a unique in-depth program c focused on the design and craft of studio furniture. c The 11th Annual Evening of Traditional Craft was e held May 18, 2010 at the WGBH Studios in Boston. c Guests viewed more than 65 hand-crafted pieces and other exhibits. Guests left with cookies in the shape of

c tools and a copy of the City of Boston’s inspiring procla - mation of May 17 – 23, 2010 North Bennet Street School Week. c

Sixth-grade students from the nearby John Eliot c e K-8 School returned to NBSS in the Spring of 2010 Bed by Paula Garbarino CF '88; photo by Bill Brett for instruction in woodworking, renewing the historic col -

c laboration between North Bennet Street School and the Boston Public Schools initiated in 1883. Due to the suc - cess of the program, plans were quickly made to expand c the program to include all Eliot School sixth-, seventh- and eighth-grade students beginning September 2010. c The work of some of the most prominent studio

c e furniture makers in the United States was shown this March in a group exhibition of handmade furniture at Gallery NAGA in Boston. In an unprecedented gesture c of financial support, half the purchase price of every exhi - bition piece sold was donated to the school; this benefit

c generated nearly $10,000 for the school.

c Beginning in the 2009-2010 school year, a new e collaboration with Bunker Hill Community College Tray Table by Timothy Philbrick allows credit for NBSS training to be applied toward a c Bunker Hill Certificate in Entrepreneurship or an Associate Degree in Business Administration. c c 6 | Annual Report

HIGHLIGHTS 2009-2010 Continued A SNAPSHOT OF SPECIAL EVENTS AND ACHIEVEMENTS

A juried exhibit of furniture, jewelry, musical e instruments and bookbindings crafted by NBSS c distinguished graduates – titled A Dedication to Craft: North Bennet Street School at 125 – was held at the Concord

c Museum in Concord Massachusetts from November 13, 2009 to March 21, 2010. c In May 2010, the annual student exhibit was held e in the historic former Old Corner Bookstore in c Child's chair by Steven Brown, CF '90; photo by Eric Roth Boston’s Downtown Crossing. The exhibit was so successfu l that its one-month stay was extended to two…and then

c three months. Thousands of Bostonians and tourists had the opportunity to see the extraordinary work of NBSS students and learn more about the school. c

Furniture makers across the country and around c e the world converged on Boston in June 2010 for the annual conference of The Furniture Society, an inter -

c national non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the art of furniture making. NBSS played a prominent role in the week-long conference, which was organized c by Richard Oedel (CF ’05), chair of the local conference committee. c Addressing 95 graduating students and their families

c e assembled at Old North Church on the occasion the school’s 125th anniversary graduation, Edward S. Cooke Jr., Professor of History of Art, American Decorative Arts c and Material Culture at Yale University, noted that “North Bennet Street School is a bully pulpit for craft,” c and argued that the school’s enduring presence proves the viability of craft in an industrial society. c With funding received from the 1772 Foundation, e NBSS established Handmade Houses , an innovative c training program that involves NBSS preservation carpentry students in the identification and preservation c of buildings in Boston's neighborhoods. The school is working in partnership with Historic Boston Inc. (HBI) to create a revolving fund focused on the acquisition, c stabilization, redevelopment and sale of historically and culturally significant first period homes in Boston. The c first project, begun in Spring 2010, is the restoration of Entrance door and surround by Matthew Diana, PC ‘10 the 1804 Anna Clapp Harris Smith House in the historic Jones Hill neighborhood of Dorchester. c

Ten new lathes were installed in a dedicated space c e at NBSS thanks to the generosity of two donors – Massachusetts Charitable Mechanic Association and c the Amelia Peabody Charitable Fund — both longtime supporters of the school. c The first-ever three-month manuscript gilding and e illumination course was offered in September – c November 2009. c 8 | Annual Report

FINANCIALS

TREASURER’S REPORT

North Bennet Street School August 1, 2009 – July 31, 2010

On behalf of the Finance Committee of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to submit this financial report for the fiscal year 2010. Once again, under the leadership and engagement of the administration and faculty, the school realized a healthy excess of revenue over expenses. Income rose 2.03% over the previous year, largely due to project and instrument revenue and gains on investments, which followed FY 2009’s investment losses. Other revenue categories continued the strong trend of recent years. For example, although contributions, gifts and grants did not match the spectacular level of 2009, they produced $955,536 for the school. This number is particularly notable given the nation’s on-going economic slump and the challenges facing non-profit organizations around the country. Overall revenue totaled $4,278,639. As in previous years, the school did not need to use income from its endowment to support the operating budget (with the exception of funds for scholarships that are taken annually from the endowed scholarship fund). The school continued its rigorous, commendable control of expenses, which remained within budget and rose 3.98% over FY 2009 to $3,735,168. The only significant variance from the previous year was a 40% increase in general and administrative expenses attributable to over $95,000 in restricted grant expenses which were offset by grant income for those programs. These expenses were largely devoted to market research, the 125th celebration, scholarships, and special programs with Gallery NAGA and WGBH. As a result of strong revenue and careful control of expenses, the School added $543,471 to its net assets, bringing the total to $5,645,156. The Board expresses its appreciation to the school’s administration, faculty and students for their achievement of the positive financial results in FY 2010.

Sincerely,

Daniel S. Cheever, Jr. Treasurer Annual Report | 13
