Chairman`s Report - Charles Allis Art Museum
annual report 2012 charles allis art museum villa terrace decorative arts museum mission The mission of the Charles Allis Art Museum and the Villa Terrace Decorative Arts Museum, which are jointly operated by a common leadership, is to fully utilize both museums, their gardens and their art collections for education and community enrichment. Cover credit: Michael Velliquette, Baboom; cut paper construction, Forward 2012: a Survey of Wisconsin Art Now Grand Prize Winner Staff photographs by Photography Intern Emily Porter Veterans’ Workshop Photography by Andrea Hudson Chairman’s Report In many respects, 2012 was a landmark year for the Charles Allis and Villa Terrace Art Museums (CAVT). Yes, high quality exhibitions attracted many individuals to openings and viewing throughout the runs. Yes, the Movie Time series continued at the Allis and Café at the Villa. Noteworthy special events at each museum were held, too numerous to list here. And programming for veterans continued. During the past year, 34 veterans participated in the programs, which were filled to capacity. A booklet was created at the conclusion of each veterans’ workshop showcasing their artwork, including photographs and commentaries by the veterans who produced them. It was compelling reading. CAVT remains committed to the continuation of such programming in the future. But also, a number of new initiatives were undertaken, including – but not limited to – the following: • The American Roots Music series at the Allis in May • Theater presentations at the Villa • “A Chair to Remember” fundraising event at the Villa on June 20 (watch for a repeat of this event in 2013) and • The initiation of the “Museum Mile” in conjunction with the Jewish Museum Milwaukee, the Museum of Wisconsin Art, and the North Point Lighthouse. A highly successful inaugural event was held on a rainy May 6. Two new members of the CAVT Board were elected: Leann Mester and Leslie Cooley. They and the balance of the Board and management staff participated in a retreat on October 13. Led by an outside facilitator, this event allowed the Board to focus on the future of the organization. Perhaps the largest reason for why this was a landmark year was the incorporation of CAVT. Encouraged by the War Memorial Corporation Board to explore this route, formal Articles of Incorporation were filed with the state. By-Laws were developed. And 501(c)3 status was sought and received. Financial management procedures were put in place, and other issues were addressed (such as insurance coverage). With these changes and more on the way, CAVT is poised to position itself for the future. Many thanks are due, beginning with the numerous contributions and support from the Friends of Villa Terrace and the Friends of Charles Allis. To Executive Director Maria Costello and her management team, a huge thank you. To the members of the CAVT Board and to all of those who support and contribute to the work of the museums, thank you. We look forward to 2013 with anticipation. I would encourage you to attend our events and support our work. Thank you. Gary Buerstatte Chairman of the Board letter from the director Whew – 2012 blew right by me! During my four years as Executive Director, this past year was by far the busiest. We started the year by filing for our own nonprofit status, a much more involved process than I thought it would be. Between January and August when we received our 501(c)(3) designation, there were meetings to get the application going, meetings with our insurance agents to change things, meetings with payroll specialists, meetings to schedule meetings (okay, maybe that is a bit of a stretch, but you get the gist!). I feel as though we discussed the importance of our own nonprofit status until I was blue in the face. The biggest positive to come from this giant step forward will be in our fundraising efforts. After many discussions with the Board and the Executive Committee we are making the move to hire a development director in early 2013. The staff continues to do a wonderful job of turning over every rock for ways to increase our revenue and cut costs, but to really get us to the next level we need to have a professional who can help get us there. We started a “Legacy Fund” in 2011 for long-range projects and support of our mission. We are about half way to our goal of a million dollars by 2015. It’s a big goal, but doable with a “pro” who will focus on both short term and long term sustainability. The museums need to craft a long-range financial plan as the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors, and, in particular, the Finance Committee, told all county entities this year, that our tax levy funding will continue to shrink and possibly disappear altogether. Our board and staff are being very proactive to keep the museums financially healthy. Many of you have been very generous and every dollar counts! We accomplished a lot this year. Some of the highlights included: mounting six critically acclaimed exhibitions of local, regional and international artists, continuing our arts programming with Veterans, restoring the Villa Terrace’s Terrace d’Luna, increasing our community engagement as an inaugural member of the Milwaukee Museum Mile, and holding our first annual A Chair to Remember fundraising event in June. Without your financial support we could not maintain and grow our programs, events and exhibits! Please know that every contribution is appreciated and recognized. Starting with this annual report we plan on listing every donation as an added “Thank You”. Here’s hoping for a fabulous 2013! Maria B. Costello Executive Director from the staff Museum Staff Maria B. Costello Executive Director Gretchen Armitage Membership Jenille Junco Registrar / Curatorial Assistant Michael Keiley CAVT Events Staff Katie Shorts Events Manager Ann Steinbach CAVT Events Manager John Sterr Marketing Manager curatorial The Curatorial Department brought both new and old concepts to bear on our exhibition schedule in 2012. At the Charles Allis Art Museum we mounted our biannual Forward: A Survey of Wisconsin Art Now juried exhibition, receiving over 250 entries from artists all over the state, and awarding $3,000 in prizes to seven of them. We introduced the new series, Wisconsin’s Own, showcasing the work of contemporary Wisconsin artists. It is meant to be a counterpoint to our Wisconsin Masters series that returns in 2013. The first two installments of this new series featured work by artists Lenny Nagler and Aaron Boyd. In partnership with the Peck School of the Arts at the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee, we hosted an international jewelry exhibition, The Decorative Impulse, at the Villa Terrace. The show featured work by six artists from around the United States, the Netherlands, and Israel, including Madison’s own Amelia Toelke. This exhibition helped shine new light on the Villa Terrace through multiple outstanding reviews and academic lectures. The Curatorial Department went through a major change in March when the Museum’s Curatorial Committee decided to use guest curators for our changing art shows. This brought new, exciting and diverse exhibitions to each museum. Our first guest curator, Jane Brite, brought us Our Gardens Inside and Out at the Charles Allis Art Museum. This group exhibition of over 100 paintings and sculptures by Wisconsin artists was highly successful, being the most visited exhibition at the Charles Allis last year. Two other shows rounded out our exhibition season. To Become Day featured Michael Velliquette’s threedimensional paper constructions and Joey Fauerso’s works on wallpaper. The group show Garden of Curious Delights displayed a variety of original work by seven artists working with oil paints, installation, fiber arts, and ceramics. Both shows were held at the Villa Terrace and were well received by both critics and members alike. A very special thank you to our many curatorial interns whose hard work and dedication over the past year was invaluable. Their many contributions, from completing the annual inventory, conducting research on the collection, and helping with all aspects of installing and de-installing exhibitions, was imperative to the Museums’ success and had a positive impact on our community. We wish them the very best in their future endeavors. Aaron Boyd (left) greets guests during the opening of his show at the Charles Allis Art Museum —December 2012 Peck School of the Arts’ Object Sale featuring student jewelry and metalsmithing —Villa Terrace November 2012 events Private rentals and events continued their upward trend in 2012. Despite some structural and scheduling conflicts, we exceeded our revenue goals for the third consecutive year, with 2012 being the best rental year we ever had. In January a pipe burst knocking out phone and internet service at the Villa Terrace causing a temporary relocation of the events office to the Charles Allis Art Museum and an impromptu communication plan with clients via email. The renovation of the terrace at the Villa Terrace was a race against the clock in order to meet the deadline for our first weddings in April. We are pleased to report that it was finished just in time and that our renters were delighted with the outcome. Managing an event venue overlooking the Lake on Milwaukee’s East Side comes with its fair share of scheduling conflicts. This year the Wisconsin Breast Cancer Showhouse was held across the street and the Milwaukee Air Show returned in August. Both impacted events at the Villa Terrace, but with advanced communication and planning, their effect was minimal and our clients left happy. A rebranding of the museums’ printed materials brought a new streamlined and visually appealing rental brochure to the department. We hosted a wedding style-photo shoot in September at the Villa Terrace put together by photographer Jenna Leigh. You can see the video she created on the rental page of the Villa Terrace website. Events Manager Katie Shorts also met with writers of the blog Married in Milwaukee that featured the Villa Terrace in September and the Charles Allis in October. We would not have been able to do all that we did in 2012 without the hard work and dedication of our event staff and volunteers. Thank you all for another great year! Annual Mad Hatter Tea at the Charles Allis Art Museum enjoyed by the whole family — March 2012 programming & events Arts programming for Veterans continued in 2012 in partnership with the Veterans Administration. Three Mixed-Media Sculpture Workshops were held at the Charles Allis Art Museum in June, July and November as part of the VA’s work with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. The workshops culminated with group exhibitions of Veterans’ work. Opening receptions announcing each show were held for participating Vets and their guests. Our Art in the Garden Program celebrated its ninth year of working with MPS art teachers and students in 2012. This annual program hosts teachers and students at the Villa Terrace Decorative Arts Museum for a day of reflection and critical thinking around disciplines such as botany, architecture, and history. The experience is built upon in the classroom where works of art are created, and then displayed back at the Villa Terrace in November and December. Annual and first-time events that engaged the community through, decorative arts and crafts, music, theater, writing, and food, raised additional revenues and were attended by over one thousand visitors. Villa Terrace A Chair To Remember – Premiere fundraising event featuring artistic creations from local artists and businesses Waiting and Medea – Theater productions by Fools For Tragedy Desire is Death – Scenes and Sonnets of William Shakespeare by the World’s Stage Theatre Company Author Night – Paul Salsini Shared Visions – An evening of poetry with Oregon poets Ralph Salisbury and Ingrid Wendt Villa Italiana – Annual Family Dinner Night Tea on the Terrace – Annual Tea Café Sopra Mare – Year-round local music program Charles Allis Allis After Hours – American Roots Music Series featuring Milwaukee musicians Mad Hatter Tea – Annual tea featuring Alice, The Mad Hatter and March Hare Ice Cream Social – Summer family-friendly event RED LEAF ARToberfest – Autumnal arts and crafts fair Movie Time – Classic film program marketing The museum extended its reach through a number of new community collaborations in 2012. Marketing agreements with Wisconsin Public Radio, WMSE 91.7, the Fine Furnishings Show, Visit Milwaukee, and the Milwaukee Film Festival exposed us to new audiences. We have also leveraged our valuable marketing dollars through the creation of the Milwaukee Museum Mile with fellow East Side arts and culture organizations. This new consortium with the North Point Lighthouse, Museum of Wisconsin Art at Saint John’s On The Lake, and the Jewish Museum Milwaukee held an inaugural event in May that drew over 400 people from southeastern Wisconsin and northern Illinois to the museums. The consortium also participated in two group tour sales missions with Visit Milwaukee, which each of us would not have been able to do on our own. The museums also made a splash citywide with our Home Is Where the Art Is campaign with the Milwaukee County Transit System. Four buses carried the slogan, accompanied by artwork from the Charles Allis art collection throughout the city for ten months exposing neighborhoods and residents to the museums for the first time. A rebranding of our printed materials echoed in this annual report was achieved through participation in our membership committee. The updated look can now be seen in our membership materials, exhibition postcards and gallery guides and quarterly newsletter.

The Friends of Charles Allis The Friends of Charles Allis (FOCA) was the major underwriter for this year’s revamped Allis After Hours American Roots Music Series. They also contributed financially to help maintain operations of the Charles Allis Art Museum and decorated the mansion for the holidays. Two successful fundraisers: the annual Who Dunnit? Murder mystery dinner and their inaugural wine, cheese, and chocolate tasting party were a great success. The Friends of Villa Terrace The Friends of Villa Terrace (FOVT) contributed to many initiatives in 2012. Their financial contribution to the restoration of the Villa’s Terrace d’Luna was instrumental in seeing the project through in time for the April wedding season. They also funded the reinstallation of the Villa’s original shutters on the east side of the mansion. FOVT held their spring garden lecture series again in 2012, staged an exhibition of Japanese bronzes, and celebrated the 10th anniversary of the Renaissance Garden they restored in 2002.
