�REPORT OF THE
PRESIDENT AND DIRECTOR
FOR THE YEAR 1939
Now THAT the museums of Europe are closed and their treasures
buried, for how long we dare not guess, the function and mission
of the American museum appears to be emphasized. The purpose
of _th~ museums of Europe is essentially that of preserving the
art1st1c products of a bye-gone age and they accomplish their objective even though it entails subterranean shelters. Here I think that
most museums would consider their .chief function to be that of
education, but since education can be imparted only through the
voluntary interest of the public, the exhibits and programs must be
enjoyable to the average visitor and their message must be relatively
intelligible to the layman.
The purpose of the education is to raise the artistic taste, to
broaden the knowledge and appreciation of the products of both
the past and the present, and to stimulate the creative genius of the
artist. If in so doing the museum renders some of the ideals of other
nations more intelligible to the general public, it, in a small measure,
combats the present spirit of national intolerance that now besets
the world, and brings recognition to our common heritage of creative achievements in the field of art, unprejudiced by the race or
creed of their creators.
Exhibitions
Although the cost of our exhibitions was slightly in excess of that
of the previous year, they were fewer in number and, to a far greater
extent than in the past, they were derived either from the Museum's
own collection or from local sources. The most notable item on the
schedule was the exhibit of the art of India, which accompanied the
current course of the Study Guild. Although confined to sculpture
and miniatures, this exhibit was comprehensive in its scope and aftained great importance when judged by any standards. Our own
collection of material in this field was vastly augmented by a very
generous loan from Mr. H. Kevorkian of New York To give additional background for the appreciation of this subject, we again
showed a selection from Hubert Stowitts' paintings of "Vanishing
India," which are still in our store room, and also photographs of
India by Fritz Henle. Other notable exhibits included selections
from the Annual Exhibition of the San Francisco Art Association
and the work of several artists of national renown, but the most out~
4
.1
standing was the exhibition of Modern Master Drawings assembled
by Dr. Alfred Neumeyer of Mills College under the joint sponsorship of the Seattle Art Museum.
We also had several very creditable exhibits that were derived
from privat~ collections in the Northwest. In the late spring, through
the cooperatto? of the Seattle Branch of the National Early American Glass Society, we had a very attractive and popular exhibit of
glass, while in the autumn, during two consecutive months, the generous loan of material in addition to a few appropriate items in the
Museum collection, permitted us to have an exhibition both of early
European paintings and of antique tapestries. In behalf of the
Museum I wish to express our gratitude to those who so kindly-contributed to the success of these events.
In the autumn, the Twenty-fifth Annual Exhibition of Northwest
Artists was a subject of major interest and brought recognition to
much new talent in the Northwest. This year the Katherine B.
Baker Memorial Purchase Prize of $100.00, which is so generously
presented by the West Seattle Art Club, was awarded to William H.
Givler, while the Museum's First Purchase Prize in Watercolor of
$75.00 was awarded to Hilda Deutsch of Spokane for her "Landscape." The other monetary awards were won by Leon D. Marsh
for his oil painting entitled "White Vase," and by Dudley Pratt for
the First Prize in Sculpture, which was accompanied by $50.00
generously donated by the Music and Art Foundation. For the jury
of the exhibition, David McCosh, Professor of Art at the University
of Oregon, served as chairman, while the other members consisted
of Franz Baum and Mark Tobey, two distinguished Seattle artists,
Worth D. Griffin, head of the Art Department of Washington State
College, and myself in an ex-officio capacity.
In addition to this exhibit and to ten one-man shows which we
sponsored during the course of the year, our local artists had a number of opportunities to have recognition brought to their achievements. Aside from the aforementioned and aside from study gallery
exhibits of the work of schools and various groups, there were the
following: a large architectural exhibit under the sponsorship of
the Washington State Chapter of the American Institute of Architects; the 11th Annual Exhibition of Northwest Printmakers, in
which the local artists meet competition from both national and
internationa! talent; an exhibit of the mural designs submitted for
the Wenatchee Post Office, for which competition the Museum assisted the Treasury Department; the High School exhibit celebrating the Diamond Jubilee ; and our usual group exhibitions during
the summer months of the work of Seattle artists who had been included in the previous Northwest Annual.
In order that our summer visitors may see the most important
5
�The Sung Dynasty was enriched by an accession of great importance in the form of a grey crackle bowl of Ko ware. This was added
to the very distinguished group of Sung ceramics which have been
presented to the Museum by Mrs. Thomas D. Stimson, and whic~
far more than justify her being classed as a patron. The other additions to our Chinese ceramics date from the early part of the 18th
Century. One is a plate of the reign <;>f K'ang Hsi, bearing in _famille
verte decoration an exceptionally vigorous portrayal of a bird and
flower subject. While the other is a large porcelain Yung Cheng
vase decorated with peonies, depicted in underglaze blue and peach
bloom.
The pictorial arts were represented by two large paintings of the
Ming Dynasty showing the decorative portrayal o~ flower and bamboo and two small folio bird and flower paintmgs of the same
period. In addition, we took the opportunity of completing our collection of Chinese wood-block prints of the so-called "Mustard
Seed Garden Series," which was originally published as an art~st's
sketch book. So far as the art of Japan is concen:ed, our accessions
are confined to folio material of less importance and include both
old and contemporary Japanese prints and some twenty vigorous
drawings by unknown artists of the 19th Century.
From the collection of Indian sculpture which Mr. H. Kevorkian
so kindly lent us, we retained a stone panel depicting in high relief
two classic incidents in Buddha's renunciation of the worldly pleasures of the palace. The piece comes from Northern India, w~ere it
was originally carved in the 2nd or 3rd Cen~ury A. D., m the
ancient kingdom of Gandhara. Another access10n f:~m ~he same
collection is of greater importance and shows a sens1t1ve mterpretation of a seated Buddha subtly portrayed in a very hard crystalline rock. This came from Northeastern India and dates fr<;>m
about the 10th Century, when it was one of the final_ creati:ve
expressions of the Buddhistic faith in ~hat ~ountry prior to its
extermination by the first Mohammedan mvas10n.
The art of Persia was also greatly enriched with several items
that reflect the sumptuous decorative quality of some of the greatest
epochs of that country. We had the privilege of ac9uir_ing a stucco
plaque decorated with two rampant gazelles ..This piece was an
architectural ornament of a 6th Century Sassaman palace at Damaghan in Northwestern Ir~n. We also a_cqui:ed two mosaic ti.le
medallions. One of these, m the star design, is from a mo~q~e m
Ispahan which was dedicated in 1482, .W:hile th.e other, dep1c.t mg a
lion attacking a bull, is of unknown origm but it may be attributed
to approximately the same period. We also a~quired ~ large ?ecorative panel composed of twenty rectangular tiles bearing a. umfied
design of birds, deer and flowers on a yel~ow ground. This came
originally from the 17th Century Imperial Palace, Haft Dast
(seven mansions) in Ispahan.

part of our Museum collection, we adopted a policy last summer of
permitting our Oriental collections to expand into the three central
octagonal galleries in the North wing in order that we could show
our most important items illustrating the early art of Japan, the art
of Persia and the art of India and Indonesia. For the rest of the
year man~ of these various items are confined to our store room fo
await their turn for exhibits in the South wing. In catering to the
tourists, we publicize the achievements both of the Museum and of
our local talent, and incidentally we attain considerable economy
in not scheduling transient exhibits.
Accessions
Once more the Museum was fortunate in receiving noted additions to its collection. Tei say that they are again principally in the
realm of the Orient may sound to some like the proverbial coals to
Newcastle. In this instance, however, some of the most important
pieces were acquired by advantageous exchange of material already
in the Fuller Collection of the Museum. The accessions were selected .
individually to fill gaps either in the historical sequence or in the
representation of various phases of artistic expression. We trust
that each piece attains the high standard of the connoisseur and at
the same time reflects a creative spirit that can be appreciated by any
one interested in art.
A bronze horse ornament, a jade sceptre and a group of small
jades give an additional glimpse of the revered classic art of China
during the Shang Dynasty, which flourished over three millenniums
ago. While the collection representing the subsequent Chou Dynasty
was strengthened with two richly decorated jade discs or symbols
of heaven, a group of small jades, an exquisite bronze mirror and
a sword handle inlaid with silver. This long period prior to the
Christian Era was once classed under the general heading of archaic,
but the recent efforts of archeologists have now permitted it to be
subdivided into art epochs which vie with each other in creative
achievements.
An unglazed tile slab from the tomb of the Han Dynasty, shows
the vigorous portrayal of a horse two thousand years ago. While a
tiger forms the motive for a bronze buckle of similar age. The latter
was the gift of Mrs. Thomas D. Stimson. The refinement of the
prosperous years of the T'ang Dynasty, during the 7th and 8th Century, is shown both in a Buddhistic marble head and in a very graceful bronze incense burner that was once carried in religious ceremonies.
�Our most important accession in the field of Occidental art was
a large French tapestry of the early 18th Century with a very well
conceived and finely executed design of verdure and landscape. We
also have now three additional old masters of considerable merit;
a small painting by the 15th Century Italian artist, Jacopo de!
Sellaio, portraying St. Jerome in prayer, a "Village Festival" painted
by the 17th Century Dutch masters Hendrick and Martin Van
Cleve, and a fine 17th Century Dutch "Landscape" by an unknown
artist. Our American paintings were enriched by "Still Life with
Fish" by William Merrit Chase, a famous artist of the previous
generation.
To our collection of contemporary American paintings was added
a "Mountain Landscape" by Marion Kavanagh Wachtel as a gift
of Alfred Rollo in memory of his wife. While a portrait of Mrs.
Eugene Fuller by Spencer Macky was donated by friends. Our
collection of paintings by local artists was enhanced by the purchase of prizes of the Northwest Annual, and, in addition, by the
accession of Carl Morris's "Woman with Cloth," Vanessa Helder's
"City Gas Works," Kenneth Callahan's "The Storm," and "The
Little Red Barn," as the gift of the artist, Dorothy Dolph Jensen.
Aside from those prints which were entrusted to us as the purchase prizes of the Northwest Printmakers, we also acquired a number of items in etching and lithography by well known contemporary
artists. Some of the most noted names are Andre Derain, Jean Charlot and "Pop" Hart. To our collection of the work of local artists,
we added several drawings and lithographs by Abe Blashko, two of
which were a gift of the artist. In addition, we took the opportunity
of selecting enough plates of John Gould's "Birds of Asia" to form
an excellent exhibition. We also acquired four drawings by Thomas
Rowlandson, the very creative British satirical artist of the early
19th Century.
In reviewing the complete scope of accessions of the past year,
I think that any one must admit that they are impressive. They represent the result of a number of exceptionally favorable opportunities of filling fairly definite needs of the Museum and, unless
otherwise stated, are additions to its Fuller Collection. Do not, however, feel that they establish a precedent that will be maintained.
The limited size of the building, which I personally consider to be
adequate in space, emphasizes the importance of quality rather than
quantity. As our material is superseded in importance by subsequent
accessions, we intend to continue our policy of trading the material
which no longer is needed for exhibition purposes.

Lectures
During the course of the year we, as usual, enjoyed the cooperation of the University in having two lectures for members at Meany
Hall. On May 2nd, the noted art historian, Sheldon Cheney, lectured on "A Primer of Modern Art" under the joint auspices of
the Department of Art. On December 14th, with the cooperation of
the Department of Ethnology, Herbert Knapp spoke on the subject
of Polynesia with his excellent Kodachrome moving pictures on
Tahiti. In our own Auditorium, we enjoyed the privilege of having
four visiting celebrities talk on various subjects. Mr. H. S . Ede,
formerly of the Tate Gallery, lectured on "Pictures Are Like People." "Essentials of Chinese Painting" was the subject for the
famous sinologe, Osvald Siren. Mrs. Helen Appleton Read, in reviewing the results of the art program of the Treasury Department,
spoke on "New Horizons in American Art." While Dr. Paul Ganz,
the world authority on Holbein, addressed us on his favorite subject. Through the generous cooperation of the Walker Ames Foundation, Amedee Ozenfant, the well known art teacher, spoke to us
on "The Need of Art" during the course of his summer instruction
at the University of Washington. For most of these lectures we are
again indebted to Mrs. Reginald H. Parsons for the maintenance of
the Daniel Cogswell Lecture Fund.
Our lecture series was also definitely enriched by the Rev. H . A.
Reinhold on "A Thousand Years of Christian Art." This
series, which Father Reinhold generously contributed, was initially
planned as one of the courses of the Study Guild. Both for the convenience of the speaker and to render it available to a wider audience it was scheduled on Monday evening and made open free
of charge to the general public. We are most grateful for the privilege that we thus had of widening the scope of our education.
Five of the series of eight lectures were delivered in the a:utumn.
In addition, the fifteen Sunday lectures were shared by Mrs.
A. M. Young and myself, while, except for the period of her illness last winter, Mrs. Young also had in the Auditorium on Saturday mornings her Children's Hour which is always a most popular
event. Some of the details of her numerous other educational
activities which do such valuable service in enlarging the scope
of our influence are covered in her own report, which is presented
on subsequent pages.
Study Guild
As usual the Study Guild has been responsible for some of our
major activities during the past year. Two administrations fall
within the scope of the present fiscal year. Since the record of the
organization under the chairmanship of Mrs. John Dallas Reagh
9
�was covered by previous reports, I now have the privilege of reviewing the major activities under the present able incumbent, Mrs.
Ofell Johnson. I have already mentioned the course of "A Thousand Years of Christian Art" by the Rev. H. A. Reinhold. The
initial plan for this series and the selection of titles was a subject
to which a committee, under the chairmanship of Mrs. Almon
Bogardus, contributed. That committee also assisted in publicizing
this important event. The series of historical lectures again reverted
to the art of China. Once more Mrs. Young and myself shared the
responsibility for it as lecturers. The other two lecture series were
confined to the "Art of the Expositions" under the chairmanship
of Mrs. Ford Q. Elvidge, and the "History of Furniture" under
the chairmanship of Mrs. Herbert Brink. The latter series covered
the early epochs in European history, leaving the subsequent centuries to next year. For the initial lecture we had the generous services of Mr. Frank Drake Davison. The other lectures for these
two courses were delivered either by members of the Guild or by
various local authorities who most generously contributed their
services. For these various programs, which entailed in all fortyfour lectures, Mrs. Ambrose Patterson was in charge with the assistance of Mrs. Bayley Willis, while Mrs. Harvey G. Schwarz, as
publicity chairman, aided in obtaining the fine publicity which many
of the events received.
The other major activity of the Study Guild is that of the docent
service. Aside from the duties during such events as the American
Banking Convention, this conscientious committee under the leadership of Miss Catherine Evans, rendered service almost every week
during the school year in conducting children of the Seventh and
Eighth grades through the gallery. These numbered over 4800. In
behalf of the Museum I wish to thank Mrs. Of ell Johnson and her
various assistants for the fine service the Study Guild rendered to
our organization.
technique of taking 35mm. slides with Leica equipment that was
lent to our organization, together with accessories which we purchased. The use of these slides demanded a major investment in a
projector for the Auditorium. The saving that is thus made possible
will shortly compensate us for the expenditure which now permits
us to have Kodachrome slides at a cost that is almost nominal. This
phase of our educational activity plays an increasingly important
part in the educational life of our city.
Probably our most notable Library accession is formed by two
extensive educational exhibits which Miss Nannette Tibbals has
available for lending to schools and various organizations. These
had been prepared in a most scholarly manner by the staff of the
San Francisco Museum of Art under a grant from a philanthropic
foundation. At our request, their director, Dr. Grace L. McCann
Morley, most generously had two sets of the original series of six
duplicated for us at actual cost. One of these is entitled "The Language of Painting" and illustrates a modern professional analysis
of artistic values in reference to established masterpieces. The other
is entitled "Masterpieces of the Past." Both of these exhibitions are
accompanied with very complete descriptive labels, as well as a
lecture which is available for reading. These exhibitions have been
on constant circuit throughout the State and have a wide educational value. Although, at the moment, the main demand for them
comes from schools, it is probable that the expansion of the present
W. P. A. program in developing art centers at various points in the
Northwest will increase the demand for them as well as for other
exhibition material which is available in our store room.
Equipment and Maintenance
The past year, once again, witnessed substantial additions to the
various collections of the Library. We acquired 89 volumes by purchase and received 24 by gift. The principal donor was Mr. Bernard
Freyd who has now presented to the Museum 95 items, which
greatly strengthen our Library in regard to the aesthetic values of
art. We now possess over 2600 books and over twice that many
colored reproductions which are mounted for lending. The latter
were augmented by 17 5 additions. We purchased nearly 700 large
standard size slides to meet the requirements of numerous lectures
and brought the total to 7500. In the autumn, however, to reduce
the cost of slides, our assistant, Mr. Barney Nestor, developed the
Our need for additional exhibit space for cabinet items was met
with the purchase of four cases of our standard design. Although
this entailed a substantial investment, it meets our requirements
for at least years to come. So far as the Auditorium is concerned,
I have already mentioned the purchase of a Leica projector. It also
was greatly improved by the reconstruction of the projection platform by our chief custodian, Mr. A. B. Faris, and his staff. In
addition, the potential service of this room was greatly increased
by the installation of a loud speaker through the generosity of Mrs.
Thomas D. Stimson. For the storeroom, an ultra-violet lamp was
purchased to permit the detection both of forgeries and of the
extent of repairs.
To permit Seattle artists to expand their efforts into the medium
of lithography, an old standard press, together with the stones and
accessory equipment, was presented by the Museum donors for

�installation in the press room. It has proven to be of immediate
service to some of our local artists and has permitted the development of exceptional talent in this phase of art. To meet the needs
of a life class, which now by tradition sketches in the receiving
room Monday evenings during the winter months, a number of
items of equipment were added. These, however, did not entail any
expense to the Museum. The materials were purchased through the
nominal artist fees, while the construction was done by Mr. Faris.
Under constant vigilance of the efficient engineering staff of the
building, the City's contract for maintenance has been carried out
most satisfactorily, and the normal wear and tear have been effectively combatted. To meet the requirements of the Civil Service,
Mr. C. E. Maxfield, after very satisfactory service for nearly a year,
was replaced by Mr. C. M. Brittain, former junior engineer of the
City Light. At this time I also wish to express my appreciation for
the fine cooperation which we have received from the Park Department. A very extensive and much needed drainage system was installed in our front lawn. To assist in this major improvement, the
Museum met the nominal expense t;ntailed in the purchase of the
tile pipe.
Membership
It is with regret that we note a slight decrease in our membership
in spite of the faithful service of our membership committee under
the direction of Mrs. Thomas D. Stimson and Mrs. Frederick H.
Parks, who devoted their services to a special effort during the
autumn. The achievement which they attained with the valuable
cooperation of the Study Guild is reflected in the fact that the loss
of members during the course of the year occurred in spite of the
addition of nearly 300 new members in various classifications.
At the instigation of the legal members of our Board, we received
the generous cooperation of some members of the State Legislature
in having a bill passed exempting museums from the inheritance
tax. In doing so, our State followed the precedent of not only the
Federal Government, but of most of the States in the Union. This
action gives promise of permitting our organization to accumulate
an endowment in the course of time.
In the late summer, Mrs. Glen Liston resigned the position of
Secretary to the Director but retained the responsibility of being
the Executive Secretary of the Western Association of Art Museum
Directors, with headquarters at the Museum. This organization has
continued to grow under her guidance as an important factor in the
circuiting of exhibitions. F.ortunately, Mrs. Coe V. Malone has most
ably filled her place, and, at the same time, has retained the task of
I2
membership secretary. To fill the position left vacant at the upper
desk, Miss Aileen Davidson was employed at full time, while Miss
Francel Wilt assists.
-»>--»>--»>--»>--»>-«<-«<-«<-«<-«<Last summer, on the death of Winlock Miller, Jr., our Board
shared with many civic organizations the sad loss of one of its
youngest and most valued members. We were fortunate, however,
in having Mr. Thomas M. Pelly accept the position thus left vacant.
-»>--»>-»>--»>--»>-«+«<-«<-«<-«<we probably share with the executives of most museums, the
knowledge that we fail to overcome the inhibition that many of our
fellow citizens feel in considering art to be something beyond their
scope, so foreign to them in fact that it is only with difficulty that
they can be persuaded to make an initial visit to the Museum. Some
may be correct in their self appraisal, but there are many others
who, I am sure, would be astonished at the ease with which they can
enter a new field of interest and of pleasure through exerting the
slight effort of observation and through the absorption of a little
knowledge which we endeavor to present in digestible form. An
art museum permits you not only to visit foreign shores, but to turn
back the pages of history and to become familiar with creative
genius which speaks to you personally in a universal language. The
essential smattering of that language is within the grasp of almost
anyone who has the interest. Although I fully appreciate that the
vital interest in current affairs may divert many from thoughts of
art and that the many demands on crowded lives may cause one to
avoid any additional effort, I am sure many fail to realize the recreation that may so easily be derived and the extent to which their lives
may be enriched.
With the thought that a good wine needs no bush, we undoubtedly
let slip opportunities of publicizing our activities. Every member,
however, and for that matter anyone can be of service in permitting
our organization to pay greater dividends to the community if by
word of mouth they spread news of the continually changing activities which the Museum presents. In this respect, however, we
greatly appreciate the cooperation of the press and the fine missionary work that they assist us in doing in our chosen field, although
we still hope for the day when in Seattle, as in the other great cities
of this country, our citizens will obviously show sufficient interest
in art to place events in that subject definitely in the category of
news.
I cannot close without expressing my warm gratitude to the
members of the staff for their very efficient and faithful service
IJ
1
�which plays an essential part in the success of our organization,
and our sincere appreciation of the cooperation of the Board of
Trustees and of the support of each of our members. I trust that
this report of our progress will strengthen their interest and loyalty
to the Museum in the great civic service that it is rendering and that
it will not give them merely a false impression of affluence and
the comfortable feeling that their assistance is no longer needed.
Although the interest of the general public is still a constant encouragement, we must admit that our membership statistics reflect
our failure in one essential phase of our external relationships in
spite of the achievements of the committee in charge. That is a
point, however, that we hope will be rectified in the future.

REPORT OF THE
EDUCATIONAL DEPARTMENT
•;
JANUARY TO DECEMBER, 1939
To THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND MEMBERS OF THE
SEATTLE ART MUSEUM:
It is of interest to study the reports of former years on the activities of the Educational Department for by such comparisons we
can measure the success of our efforts. Since we opened our doors
in June of 1933, we have attempted to carry out the duties laid
down for such departments in every museum, namely, docent to
adults and school children, lectures in the museum and out of it,
and children's story hours. That members of various organizations
have continued to attend these lectures year after year and that the
children who came seven years ago are still interested in the programs sponsored by the Museum is indicative that we are filling a
very real need. That so many come to the Museum is only an indication that they look to us for assistance and have come to respect
this Museum's position in the community. It is with the idea of
serving the people that this work of providing recreation and
aesthetic enjoyment is carried on.
The Docent Group, under the able chairmanship of Mrs. Ofell
Johnson in the spring and Miss Catherine Evans in the fall, has
conducted Seventh and Eighth grade children from the Public
Schools on tours through the galleries. Adult groups and school
children from out of the city have had similar service by special
appointment. This department is grateful to the members of the
Docent Group, for we are mindful that under this volunteer service
the members are constantly on call and have frequently sacrificed
personal pleasures and comforts to come at a moment's notice in
order to conduct a group through the Museum. Their enthusiasm
and wonderful cooperation has been an inspiration to the school
children under their guidance and words cannot convey my personal
gratitude for their generous service in behalf of both the Museum
and the community. The following comprise the committee who
have contributed to the work of the Educational Department: Mrs.
Frank S. Bayley, Jr., Mrs. Edward Strong Campbell, Mrs. Kenneth
Cole, Mrs. Joseph Gandy, Mrs. John Dallas Reagh, Mrs. Wesley
Rennie, Mrs. Willard Skeel, Mrs. Veo Fuller Small, Mrs. Elizabeth
Smithson, Mrs. Harvey G. Schwarz, Mrs. Lewis Turtle, Mrs. Pieter
van Dalen, Mrs. W. D. Vanderbilt, and Mrs. Brian Wattleworth.
IS
�In addition to lectures given, I have written a weekly art column
for the Sunday Post-Intelligencer and have given two radio broadcasts a week. Once a month, from October through May, a lecture
is given to Parent-Teacher Associations. This has become a tradition
with that organization and there are many members who have not
missed a single meeting since the Museum opened. The Auditorium
is usually filled at these meetings and often with members standing.
I give a lecture on some phase of art and follow it with a tour of the
galleries. These Parent-Teacher members report to their school
associations on the lecture and current exhibits, and so the influence
of the Museum is taken into the homes.
The Children's Story Hour, held each Saturday morning at 10
o'clock from October through May, continues to attract children
and their parents. While the audience changes from time to time
there are many who have been attending for several years.
During my absence in the spring, Dr. Richard Fuller gave the
Study Guild lectures that I was scheduled to make and wrote three
of my Sunday articles, while Mrs. William Harrison and Mr. R.
Bruce Inverarity lectured to the Parent-Teacher Association, and
Mr. Dick Rarig brought educational talking films to the Children's
Story Hour.
Last summer I attended the State Convention of Federated
Women's Clubs at Be1Iingham, where I addressed the convention
and took a collection of Washington artists' work for an exhibit.
I also addressed the Publicity Department of the Museum Directors'
Association at their annual convention in San Francisco. In summing up the lectures for this past year, 125 lectures were given out
of the Museum, of which 40 were out of the city and 56 in various
schools, while 54 talks were given over the radio and 68 lectures
delivered in the Museum, making a total of 240 for the year.
I wish to express my personal gratitude for the enthusiastic and
generous support given me by the Docent Committee and fellow
members of the staff and to make especial mention of the generous
assistance of Mrs. Coe Malone, Miss Aileen Davidson, Miss Nannette Tibbals and Mr. Barney Nestor without which this program
could not have been carried on.

Description
An account of the resource
<p>This collection consists of digitized and born-digital annual reports and other financial and strategic documentation issued by the Seattle Art Museum from the 1930s to the present. Although the museum officially began in 1933, some reports note a longer period of existence -- the 1932/33 report, for example, is subtitled "Twenty-seventh Year." Prior to becoming the Seattle Art Museum, two predecessor organizations existed: the Seattle Fine Arts Society (1905-1917) and then, after merging with the Washington Arts Association (1906-1917), the Art Institute of Seattle (1917-1932).</p>
