FA L L 2 0 1 5 Dear Friends, I hope this newsletter finds you enjoying the tail-end of a fantastic summer filled with plenty of relaxation. One of the pleasures of working at Maryhill is the opportunity to interact with people in summer mode, taking advantage of a chance to unplug, slow down, and rejuvenate by looking, learning and being filled up by art. Tsagaglal (She Who Watches) at Columbia State Park. Photo by of Brian Kurth. For visitors who want to extend that relaxed feeling, I recommend crafting a weekend stay in the Gorge with a visit to Maryhill as the centerpiece. Fall is a spectacular time to visit the Columbia Gorge and take advantage of all it has to offer. Blazing temperatures are a distant memory (we hope!), giving way to clear, crisp days that are perfect for exploring the hiking trails, wineries, and iconic orchards that line both sides of the Columbia. If you’ve never visited the Native American petroglyphs at Columbia Hills State Park, that outing is a great add-on before or after viewing Maryhill’s American Indian galleries. Temani Pesh-wa (Written on Rock) Trail is accessible when the park is open; guided tours of the pictographs and petroglyphs, including She Who Watches, are offered at 10 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays through October. Reservations are required. Better yet, consider spending a weekend with us October 3 & 4, when we’ll combine the Maryhill Arts Festival with Car is King Weekend. The result will be a two-day celebration of autos and the arts, with sales booths featuring work by regional artists, a classic car show, an opportunity to drive the historic Maryhill Loops Road and much more. Finally, if you haven’t had a chance to visit us in 2015, there’s still time to see the fantastic shows on view. Exquisite craftsmanship is front and center in Andrea Rich’s marvelous woodblock prints and in Raven Skyriver’s glass sculptures; historic photos of the region, featuring both the people and landscape are also a delight. See you at the museum! Colleen Schafroth Executive Director THE MEMBERS’ TRIP TO OKLAHOMA was a great and educational adventure. In Oklahoma City, the group visited the Oklahoma History Center and the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum. In Tulsa, they explored Gilcrease Museum, Philbrook Museum of Art and Philbrook Downtown. In Norman, they toured the Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art at the University of Oklahoma and the Jacobsen House Native Art Center. They also visited several art galleries and enjoyed evening lectures by Native artists and museum curators.

The cost has been estimated at $1,340,000. We are extremely grateful to Washington State for its visionary gift that will help Maryhill to conserve and protect the historic building for generations to come. We will devote a whole article to this project in our next newsletter, but wanted you, our friends and supporters to hear our good news! The state grant must be matched with private support, so if you are interested in giving to this project, please contact Colleen Schafroth, Executive Director at 509.773.3733x23 or [email protected]. THIS AREA TO BE LAWN IF BUDGET ALLOWSTHIS AREA TO BE LAWN IF BUDGET ALLOWS THIS AREA TO BE LAWN IF BUDGET ALLOWS EXISTING GRAVEL GRAVEL Maryhill has completed the collections storage project (see spring newsletter) in the Brim Family Research Center. This included purchasing compact storage, collections related equipment, and much needed fire-proof file cabinets for the safe storage of collections records and more. The project cost just over $165,000 and included hundreds of volunteer hours. The museum is grateful to the Washington State Heritage Capital Projects Fund, and to Art Dodd and Diane Plumridge, the Arthur G. Dunn Guild of Seattle, Evie Brim, Glenda Mason, Douglas Burton and Dave & Juanita Neitling, who helped push us across the finish line. The museum’s Building and Grounds Committee is moving forward with a West Side Landscape Plan that will enhance views and open up additional areas to explore. It is hoped that the first phase, the installation of curbs, walks, irrigation and lawn on the north side of the access road, will be completed this fall at an estimated cost of $35,000. Initial funding comes from Fred and Cindy Henchell, Byron and Sue Henry, Ned and Sandy Kice, Kim and Char McGinnis, Steve and Mary Nygaard, Craig and Kelley Schommer, Schommer and Sons and Ken and Joceyln Weeks with in-kind support by MacKay Sposito. If you are interested in helping, contact Colleen Schafroth, Executive Director at 509.773.3733x23 or [email protected].

Join British Stonehenge enthusiast and model-builder Lloyd Matthews as he discusses Stonehenge, the Neolithic monument on Salisbury Plain in Great Britain. A few years ago, Matthews spent time carefully studying the stones to create a 1:158 scale model of Stonehenge as it stands now, and another illustrating how it was originally thought to have stood. In the process he noticed several distinct shapes on the stones, and since then has sought to learn more about them. In 2012, Matthews gifted the scale models to the Education Collection at Maryhill Museum of Art. MARYHILL FAVORITES: R.H. IVES GAMMELL AND HIS STUDENTS American Realist R.H.
