Winterthur Museum & Country Estate 5105 Kennett Pike Winterthur, Delaware 19735 Winterthur Interim Winterthur Interim January 2010 Calendar and Honor Roll of Donors Winterthur New Year, New Plans Life at Winterthur has long been observed more through the ebb and flow of the seasons than through the strictures of the calendar. As 2010 begins, Winterthur moves to a new approach in its programming by adapting an operating schedule that provides a closer connection to the estate’s seasonal offerings. The conclusion of the current winter season will occur on January 31, 2010. Winterthur will be closed to the public from February 1 through March 8, 2010, re-opening on March 9. This midwinter break provides the opportunity to make important changes and realize significant cost savings during a time in which such considerations are particularly important. Museum and estate staff will focus their energies on planning and preparation to ensure that Winterthur’s “spring awakening” provides visitors with a welcome that reflects the best of the season. During this period, the Winterthur Library will continue to provide service to researchers who have made advance arrangements, and the Museum Stores will offer private shopping by appointment. Please call 800.448.3883 for further details. Of Note... As the Yuletide season has drawn rave reviews from visitors who are enjoying both the magnificent holiday tour and the Faces of a New Nation exhibition, Winterthur has extended the Yuletide tour through January 10 and the exhibition through January 31. Don’t miss your chance to enjoy them! This edition of Interim provides us with an opportunity to look forward to January’s events and to preview plans for the spring season. We also look back at many of 2009’s high points through a selection of photos that capture the year’s activities. The Honor Roll of Donors (page 5) provides a perfect opportunity to acknowledge the Members and friends whose support is so vital to Winterthur. Thanks for making 2009 so memorable.

As the Honor Roll of Donors unfolds in the pages that follow, we gratefully acknowledge the network of support that bolstered Winterthur’s 2009 fiscal year, even as we celebrate many of the unforgettable events that marked this important time. The following list recognizes donations received between July 1, 2008, and June 30, 2009. Allen Rokach As the new year dawns, we pause to reflect on all that made the past year such a remarkable one at Winterthur. Although not immune to the challenging economic headlines, Winterthur charted a careful course in 2009. Excellence in programming and enthusiasm for its mission were key to a year in which innovative approaches allowed Winterthur to maintain equilibrium. 31st Annual Point-to-Point A little rain couldn’t dampen the spirits of thousands of Point-to-Point guests who came out to enjoy a day of steeplechase racing, tailgate picnicking, and family fun.
