Museum Engages Communitythrough Innovative Program
This summer Museum Education Director April Oswald launched aninnovative new program that has already received national attention.Ms. Oswald engaged adult refugees and immigrants taking English
as a Second Language classes in the Utica City School District Adult Learn-ing Center at the Mohawk Valley Resource Center for Refugees and invitedthem to take their Thursday morning classes at the Museum of Art. Theseclasses are part of a program called Shared Traditions, which receivedsupport from the National Endowment for the Arts, Art Works and M&TBank/Partners Trust Charitable Fund. Each class spent an hour in TheGolden Age of European Painting exhibition discussing the three majorthemes of the program: adornment, ritual, and place. These themes wereselected to collectively consider wide-ranging cultural experiences, i.e.,those of 17th-and 18th- century Europe, and those of present-day immi-grants and refugees from Sudan, Myanmar, Nepal, Belarus, and else-where.
Hour two of the program was led by photographer Sylvia de Swaan, whodiscussed her work and the work of other photographers. As a refugee her-self, de Swaan fled Romania as a child during WWII. This experience, andher subsequent travel, homes, and return to her birthplace, is the subjectof her work. Program participants were given cameras and photographicassignments with themes similar to those discussed in the meetings.
A second term of the program begins in February 2015, in conjunction withan exhibition consisting of artworks from the Museum’s collection andfrom loans. The program participants’ photos and narratives will be an es-sential component of the Shared Traditions exhibition opening in February.

Take Advantage of Year-End TaxBenefits and Support MWPAI
Since our founding nearly 100 years ago, Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute serves as the cultural and artistic center of our community.
We have always depended upon the generous support of our community.From our founding families through generations of members, generous An-nual Fund gifts have made a very real difference in what we have beenable to present. Consider making a tax-deductable Annual Fund gift. It’s atradition worth continuing.
Consider also a generous contribution of $1,000 or more, and become amember of the Fountain Elms Society, a circle of supporters who receive ahost of special privileges. Perhaps the most rewarding aspect of your con-tribution is knowing you help enable the breadth and quality of the Insti-tute’s programming which is an investment in the quality of life of theentire region.
The Fountain Elms Society, now in its fifth year, boasts more than 130members. Our goal is to double that number over the next three years. Ifyou are already a Fountain Elms Society member, please bring a friendwhen you attend upcoming events and encourage them to get involved byjoining at one of our many membership levels
December is the last opportunity to make gifts to MWPAI and enjoy a chari-table tax deduction for 2014. Gifts to the Institute can be even more bene-ficial to the donor by making a gift of appreciated securities. Such a giftenables the donor to take a tax deduction for the full market value of thestock on the day it is transferred to the Institute therefore avoiding anycapital gains tax on the appreciation of that stock.
You can further benefit MWPAI by making your holiday purchases from Ama-zon through Amazon Smile. Go to smile.amazon.com and select a charityby typing Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute in the search box. Amazondonates 0.5% of the purchase price to MWPAI.
For further information regarding the Fountain Elms Society or to find outmore about giving tax-wise gifts of securities or planned-giving options, contact Tara Sumner at 315-797-0000, ext. 2297. To donate to the AnnualFund, or become a Member, contact Anastasia Cass at ext. 2104.
