Washington County Museum Of Fine Arts 401 Museum Drive, City Park | Hagerstown, Maryland Fiscal Year 2013 | July 1, 2012 - June 30, 2013 Mission and History Established in 1931 the mission of the Washington County Museum of Fine Arts is to collect, preserve, interpret, and exhibit art of lasting quality for the citizens of Hagerstown, Washington County, and the surrounding region. The mission is implemented through the development, interpretation, and care of art collections; creation of original and educational exhibitions; and presentation of interpretive lectures, concerts, films, art instruction, and other programs to ensure that visitors gain a better appreciation and understanding of the fine arts. The Museum has been recognized as one of the finest small museums in the United States. The presentation and care of art collections, and associated interpretive activities requires the maintenance of a specialized and architecturally significant building and grounds. The Museum’s historic building is protected by an Easement of the Maryland Historic Trust.

Completing 82 years of service, the Museum supported regional tourism and economic development initiatives. The Museum hosted tourists from 45 states, Washington, D. C. and 25 foreign countries this year. The Museum settled into the second year of the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) funded collections inventory, launched the “Valley of the Shadow” exhibition as part of the region’s 150th Commemoration of the American Civil War, and produced an exhibition catalog and associated monthly programming. The Museum loaned works of art to important exhibitions. The Museum’s Thomas Birch Shipwreck painting was part of a very successful exhibition and accompanying book Shipwreck at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. The Museum’s John Hesselius Portrait of Mrs. Thomas Gough was loaned to the important exhibition, “Painters and Paintings of the Early American South,” at Colonial Williamsburg Museums. In conjunction with the IMLS funded Collections Inventory, consultant Mary Case facilitated a Part II collections committee discussion about quality, focused on different areas within the collections, and the Museum hosted a visit from two senior programs officers of the IMLS and half-day collections assessments by paper conservator Nancy Purinton and art glass/art pottery collector Michael Merson. Collections staff applied for and received a re-CAP (Conservation Assessment Program) for a complete collections stewardship assessment conducted by certified conservator Hanna Szczepanowska. The Museum sponsored highly successful bus trips to museums in Philadelphia, Delaware, and Washington, DC. Museum staff undertook a review of the Museum’s library holdings led by Baltimore Museum of Art Library Director, Linda TompkinsBaldwin. The Thursday evening Civil War Lecture Series was presented 13 times and became rooted and successful. Maryland poet-laureate, Stanley Plumly, read at the Museum. The Singer Society’s “In and Out” series provided stimulating and creative educational opportunities to the volunteers. The members of the Singer Society presented the 11th Annual Treasure Sale, a Singer Memorial Gallery Re-dedication & Ribbon Cutting, June 9, 2013.

Art in Bloom, the Benefactors’ Reception and the Annual Membership meetings were well-attended, successful Community Museum events. The Pandolfi brunch and concert was a highly festive conclusion to the events of this Museum year. The Museum underwent a Maryland Historic Trust building review and completed the self-study and site review for the American Alliance of Museums’ Community Engagement Assessment. As part of CAP, the Museum also underwent a thorough review by architectural historian Bryan Townes. Architects Murphy and Dittenhafer received the “Good Design = Good Business” AIA Award for the Museum’s Anne G. and Howard S. Kaylor Atrium, and former president of the Museum Board of Trustees, Thomas C. Newcomer, was named the Herald-Mail “Person of the Year”. Trustees, staff, volunteers and members joined a planning retreat in the spring of 2012 that culminated in the trustees’ adoption of a written long range plan for the Museum’s future. The Museum weathered several challenges this past year including an expensive and disruptive computer “worm” attack, Hurricane Sandy emergency preparations, and the failure and subsequent indoor flood of the new HVAC unit for the Atrium. The Museum completed the Past-Perfect Contacts upgrade, conversion to Constant Contact Email News Releases, participated in the first year of “Washington County Gives”, launched the Legacy Campaign for the endowment, and began the process of website redesign. The Museum hosted meetings of the Maryland Heritage Areas Authority Board, the Maryland Life Magazine’s Western Maryland Board, and the Maryland Commission on Artistic Property as well as special visits from Dr. Dolf van dem Brink, Chair of the Board of the Singer Laren Museum in Laren, Holland, and a delegation from Hagerstown’s Sister City, Wesel, Germany. Two important commemorations took place in the Museum’s Kaylor Atrium, including the 200th company anniversary of Fives- Cinetic-Landis, and the 50th year Commemoration of the Hattie Carroll trial, which was keynoted by Maryland Lieutenant Governor Anthony Brown. The Museum was named to the Hagerstown Magazine’s “Hot” list and Maryland Life Magazine’s “Maryland’s Finest” list. The Museum was featured on the cover of Hagerstown-Washington County Convention and Visitor’s Guide (CVB) to Washington County, and stories about the Singer Gallery rededication were picked up by the Associated Press (AP), and published in Wisconsin and California. The Museum participated in the report-outs of the Arts Marketing study by Sage Marketing Consultant Anirban Basu. The Museum’s Facebook page exceeded 1,000 “Friends” on Valentine’s Day 2013. The culmination of the year was the re-dedication and reinterpretation of the Singer Memorial Gallery, the completion of a two year process which began with a catastrophic roof leak, and concluded with a beautiful gallery thoughtfully curated and interpreted and with touch screen educational technology. The gallery was re-dedicated with a celebratory gala dinner and a public ribbon cutting, tours, and other activities. In another building project, the Museum completed the complex rebuild and re-dedication of the Odell H. Rosen Family Fountain, along with fresh landscaping in the Museum’s entry plaza. Without the enthusiastic support of the community, Museum trustees, patrons, staff, volunteers, and members, none of these accomplishments would have been attained. Museum trustees, committees, event planners, programmatic volunteers all contributed hours and hours of generous service to community programming at the Museum. To all of you, we say a heartfelt “Thank You” for your generous gifts of time, talent, and funding to keep this cherished Community Art Museum healthy and hearty through the generations.

Valley of the Shadow Exhibit FY 2013 Annual Report | 5 Singer Memorial Gallery Reopening The Singer Memorial Gallery re-opened June 9, 2013, two years after it was structurally damaged by ice damming on the roof. Following the emergency roof repair, the assessment, and safe storage of all of the works of art, the Museum raised the necessary resources to replace the roofing over the 1930 and 1949 buildings, including the Singer Memorial Gallery. The new roofs are covered with an energy-efficient white membrane. Substantial contributions were made by the Alice Virginia and David W. Fletcher Foundation, Samuel Freeman Charitable Trust, and The Nora Roberts Foundation. Additional support was received from the Kershner Sisters Foundation, the Albert E. & Naomi B. Sinnisen Foundation, and Ellsworth Electric. Providing hands-on assistance in the rebuild were Brent Feight and Aaron House, BFM Architects, who created drawings with Building Systems, Inc., led by George Stone, overseeing the project. The gallery was insulated on all outside walls, lit by energy-efficient LED museum lighting, and floored with bamboo, a material with a small carbon footprint. Hollis Koons McCullough, who served as project curator; selected the works of art, wrote interpretive materials, and trained Museum docents. The curatorial team included Dr. Elizabeth Johns, Rebecca Massie Lane, Jennifer Chapman Smith, and Blyth McManus along with Quatrefoil Design Firm. The Singer Memorial Gallery incorporated innovative educational technologies generously provided by David Fields and Tim Jones, Signera, to better reach youth and adult audiences. With the re-opening of the Singer Memorial Gallery, the Museum proudly presents an important selection of the Museum’s remarkable art collections in a beautifully re-designed gallery.

The team of Harry Reynolds and Donna Brightman worked diligently to sensitively re-design the fountain re-using the existing granite sculptural bubbler, and the original pavers. Ms. Brightman also donated the beautiful plantings that now enhance the fountain. Her design for the fountain was approved by the Building Committee at their December 11, 2012 meeting. George Stone, Building Systems, Inc., and Roy Ebersole, Ebersole Plumbing, provided the construction and plumbing services to recreate this important feature of the Museum.
