2001-2002 Approved All Funds Biennial Budget
I About the CoverAbout Cover Front Cover: The Tyler-Davidson Fountain The Tyler-Davidson Fountain, affectionately known as “the People’s Fountain,” after being restored, was rededicated “TO THE PEOPLE OF CINCINNATI” in May 2000. Throughout the decades, Cincinnatians have gathered at the fountain for public ceremonies, holidays, events, rallies, and the special celebrations that give community life its greatest meaning. Cincinnati philanthropist Henry Probasco commissioned the fountain based on the design of a young German sculptor named August von Kieling. The design depicted people in everyday pursuits enjoying the many uses and benefits of water. The fountain, crafted of bronze and porphyry stone, was first dedicated on October 6, 1871 on Probasco Place – later renamed Fountain Square. [Photography: City Manager’s Office.] Back Cover: Styler Davidsown Sow-tain The Big Pig Gig, which kicked-off on Fountain Square and ran from February through September 2000, was a collaborative effort of schools, businesses, non-profit organizations and area artists to unify Cincinnati’s art community and celebrate the City’s “Porkopolis” heritage. Over 400 fiberglass pigs were sponsored and later auctioned off to raise money for ArtWorks – an arts based employment and job-training program for youth in Greater Cincinnati. The Styler Davidsown Sow-tain made its debut in The Big Pig Gig in June, 2000. It bears an uncanny resemblance to the original fountain, complete with bronze coloring and water spraying from the top.

Brand New Mississippi Sternwheeler from American Cruise Lines
Brand New Mississippi Sternwheeler from American Cruise Lines Guilford, CT - American Cruise Lines has announced it is expanding to the Mississippi River system with a brand new sternwheeler, already under construction at Chesapeake Shipbuilding in Salisbury, MD. It plans to operate the new riverboat on routes similar to those formerly run by Delta Queen Steamboat Company, which will include the Mississippi, Ohio, Tennessee, and Cumberland Rivers. Cruising the Mississippi River on a sternwheeler is a true all-American experience that American Cruise Lines is pleased to bring back. The new paddlewheeler will recreate the grandeur of past riverboats while possessing the latest safety, environmental and construction technologies. The ship will have the look of a traditional riverboat along with more amenities, a faster speed, and an unmatched level of comfort. Features include six unique lounges, a library, an elegant dining salon, elevator service to all decks, and the exceptionally large staterooms found on all American Cruise Lines ships. With only 140 passengers, each guest will receive personalized service in the intimate and friendly atmosphere for which American Cruise Lines has become known. The first cruise is a scheduled to depart August 11, 2012 from New Orleans, Louisiana on a 7-night journey up the Mississippi to Memphis, Tennessee. The ship will then begin a series of 7-night cruises travelling as far north as St. Paul, Minnesota while utilizing its remarkable speed to open up new itinerary possibilities. As on all true riverboats, a stage and bow ramp will give the ship access to the many interesting ports without docking facilities. -

A History of Music in Old Mount Vernon, Ohio with Particular Attention to Woodward Hall and the Nineteenth-Century American Opera House
A HISTORY OF MUSIC IN OLD MOUNT VERNON, OHIO WITH PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO WOODWARD HALL AND THE NINETEENTH-CENTURY AMERICAN OPERA HOUSE A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Elizabeth Bleecker McDaniel, B.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2003 Master's Examination Committee Approved by Dr. Graeme M. Boone, Adviser Dr. Charles M. Atkinson _________________________ Adviser Mr. Christopher R. Weait School of Music ABSTRACT During the antebellum period, the town of Mount Vernon, Ohio had a flourishing music scene that included performances by both local amateur societies and professional touring groups. When Woodward Hall, located on the top floor of a four-story commercial building, opened its doors to the public in 1851, it provided the town with its first dedicated theater. Newspaper items and other early sources show that the hall was a focus of public culture in the 1850s, hosting concerts, plays, lectures, and art exhibits as well as community activities including dances, church fundraisers, and school exhibitions. The early source materials for Mount Vernon, however, like those for many small towns, are lacunary, and especially so in the case of Woodward Hall. These shortcomings are compensated, to some extent, by materials relating to theaters of similar size and age in other towns, which offer points of comparison for the Woodward and prove it to be a typical mid-nineteenth-century American theater in some respects, and a distinctive one in others. Modern-day music histories have heretofore been silent on the subject of music and opera houses in small towns despite Oscar Sonneck’s call, some ninety years ago, for local music historiography as a necessary first step in creating a complete history of American music. -
