OPENINGS On Friday, July 28, O’Keeffe Circle patrons enjoyed a dinner at the home of Museum Trustee Joanna Townsend and her husband, Peter. Under the promise of a dramatic summer thundershower, guests enjoyed cocktails in the Townsends’ art-filled home, and a presentation of O’Keeffe’s art materials by the Museum’s Head of Conservation, Dale Kronkright. They then enjoyed dinner on the patio, with views of the mountains as the sky danced and the rains held off.

FROM THE DIRECTOR As we approach the season for giving thanks, I’d like to reflect on this historic 20th-anniversary year and the many people who have been a part of the growth of the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum. The staff and volunteers of the Museum are not simply employees—they are more like a second family. Together, they help make the Museum a special experience for our visitors, and for each other. I am thankful to work alongside such a vibrant group of people who are at the tops of their fields. Our interns, fellows, guest presenters, and creative peers help make each year unique. We benefit from their willingness to exchange and share their knowledge. Their fresh dialogue and engaging perspectives strengthen our community. I am grateful for the many ways they enrich the Museum as a center for academic and public education. Through our collaborative exhibitions in London, Vienna, Toronto, Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney, Brooklyn, and beyond, Georgia O’Keeffe’s work reached more than one million people in the last year. We are thankful for the enthusiasm visitors around the world have shown for her art, and for choosing to make cultural engagement a part of their lives. Of course, we would not be able to fulfill our mission to advance Georgia O’Keeffe’s artistic legacy without the support of you, our members. Your continued dedication has made this a dynamic anniversary year for our growing institution. Because of your commitment, I am certain the years to come will be just as strong. I am grateful for your continued support. Thank you for being a part of this incredible institution. Have a safe and happy fall.

2OTH ANNIVERSARY On Monday, July 17, 2017, the Museum marked 20 years of celebrating a great American artist with a great American story. Events and programs had been ongoing since the beginning of the year, but the Museum’s 20th anniversary week saw several noteworthy events. On Wednesday, July 12, Museum Director Robert A. Kret engaged in a conversation with Elizabeth Glassman, currently director of the Terra Foundation and former director of the Georgia O’Keeffe Foundation. Following the discussion, members convened in the Research Center gardens for a reception. On Thursday, July 20, the Museum sponsored the Santa Fe Bandstand for the day. This community festival of

music on the Plaza runs for six weeks each summer, and attracts locals and tourists alike. The Museum joined with its neighbors for the Johnson Street Experience on Saturday, July 22. Johnson Street businesses opened their doors so that visitors could enjoy music, food, wine tastings, and art activities throughout the day. 1. Elizabeth Glassman 2.

A WISH COMES TRUE AT THE GEORGIA O’KEEFFE MUSEUM This summer, thousands of people from around the world visited the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum, but among the seasonal crowds one visitor stood out. In arrangement with the Make-a-Wish Foundation, Kaitlin Lee, a 14-year-old from Lafayette, Louisiana, arrived at the Museum with her mom and sister. The Make-a-Wish Foundation gives children with life-threatening illnesses experiences that make their special, personal wishes a reality. Some kids hope for treehouses, shopping sprees, or to meet Mickey Mouse. Kaitlin’s wish was to see the New Mexico landscapes that had influenced her favorite artist, Georgia O’Keeffe. Kaitlin’s summer trip included private tours of the Museum’s galleries and Research Center, the Abiquiú Home and Studio, and the Ghost Ranch house. She met with staff and volunteers, and shared lemonade and cookies with Director Robert A. Kret and Curator Carolyn Kastner. They discussed the school project that 6

introduced O’Keeffe’s story to Kaitlin, and Kret presented her with a print of O’Keeffe’s Untitled (Purple Petunia) (1925). Like many, Kaitlin was drawn to O’Keeffe’s work through the artist’s flowers series. She has a good eye. The Lee family’s visit was rounded out with excursions coordinated with our friends at the International Folk Art Market, Meow Wolf, and the Santa Fe School of Cooking. Kaitlin was also interviewed by deejay Honey Harris, on KBAC 98.1 FM. Of course, no trip is complete without sampling the local fare— the Lees made sure to tuck in to green-chile cheeseburgers and sopaipillas. Kaitlin started high school this fall, but we hope it won’t be too long before she returns to the Land of Enchantment. “It was an amazing experience that I’ll always remember,” she says. We feel the same way!

ART AND LEADERSHIP 2O17 It’s 8:45 AM on the first day of the O’Keeffe Art and Leadership program summer sessions, and the interns assume their positions. Name tags in hand, they open the doors to a new day filled with art, games, and learning. By 9 AM, all are seated in a circle with middle schoolers from around Santa Fe. The staff greets the program participants with smiles and offers them an Opening Circle Question: Where is the one place in the world you’d like to go? If you could be born in any time period, when would that be? If you could be any animal, which would you be? What is the most rewarding experience you have ever had? Answering these questions is intended to encourage the participants to get to know more about each other on a deeper level than is possible by merely awkwardly introducing themselves and making small talk. The questions might not seem particularly personal, but they can reveal a great deal about a person as the days go by. However, these questions are not for the benefit of the campers alone—they’re also a way for the staff to get to know each other, grow together, and learn more about themselves. If, before this summer, you asked the interns what they expected to get out of their experience of serving as staffers for the O’Keeffe Art and Leadership Program, not many would have said that they would grow far more in tune with themselves. Or that they would develop deep bonds with the students they served. Or that they would feel immensely inspired by the students, artists, and colleagues they met. But once they said goodbye, the campers left, and the exhibition of their work was hung on the walls of the Education Annex, the interns had a new answer to that final Opening Circle Question: One of their most rewarding experiences was being an intern in the O’Keeffe Art and Leadership Program.

“Working with this age group brought me so much hope for the future. They are very forward-thinking, and understand the need for positive change.” —Jessi Szabat, high school senior, The Masters Program “The young ladies in the program were positive activists within their school communities and city communities, which has to be one of the most influential things I was able to experience this summer.” —Gabbi Rodriguez, high school senior, Capital High School “Working in the program made me the happiest I’ve been! My peers were hilarious and bright, and the young women I worked with were inspiring. They were wise and wonderful, and I learned so much by working in the Museum.” —Sophia Fishkin, Bradley University “My experience as an intern reached way beyond my expectations. I had such an enjoyable time as an intern, and had amazing experiences from the day I started the internship. I would fully recommend it to people who have a kind heart and are looking to have great interactions with others. I would be glad to come back as an intern any time!” —Luis Gomez, Capital High School

SOCIAL MEDIA

INSTAGRAMMING THE MUSEUM This August, the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum reached a social-media milestone with addition of our 10,000th Instagram follower. Instagram, a mobile social-networking app that lets users publicly or privately share with their followers photographs and short film clips, now has over 700 million users each month. In honor of the Museum’s online success, we share here what we’ve learned about our Instagram demographics, as well as the five most popular posts among the Museum’s followers.

INSTAGRAM DEMOGRAPHICS According to our profile, 26% of the Museum’s followers are men, 74% women. The largest portion of them, 29%, are in the age range of 25 to 34. After that, 28% of followers are 35 to 44, and 18% range from 45 to 54. The majority—71%—live in the United States. We also know which cities our followers live in; the highest concentrations are in Santa Fe, New York, Albuquerque, Los Angeles, and London.

O’Keeffe asserted that God had told her that Cerro Pedernal could be hers if she painted it often enough. She depicted Pedernal 29 times in 22 years, including this painting, Cerro Pedernal (1941/1942)—our post for June 27, 2017, and our third most popular.

Our No. 1 post, at 724 likes, was of a painting O’Keeffe made in Hawai’i in 1939: Pink Ornamental Banana (1939), posted on May 19, 2017. This painting may have particularly resonated with our Santa Fe followers— the City Different was then beginning to experience some warmer weather, though summer was still a month away.

Our second-highest-rated post, of April 11, 2017, quoted O’Keeffe talking about her artistic practice. In 1976, she said, “My paintings sometimes grow by pieces from what is around.” Black Hollyhock Blue Larkspur (1930) depicts two of O’Keeffe’s favored New Mexican flowers in resplendent blues and browns.

Road to Pedernal (1941) was our fourth-most-beloved post. Our caption plays on the road theme with a reference to planning summertime car travel. This road-trip post went up on March 6, 2017.

Finally, our most recent and fifth most popular post, of July 28, 2017, was Black Cross with Stars and Blue (1929). On view to visitors for a fleeting six weeks, this post commemorates the loan of the painting for a brief showing in the Museum that ends November 2017.

1OO YEARS OF ART IN NEW MEXICO The New Mexico Museum of Art celebrates its centennial this fall. New Mexico’s first art museum, its doors opened only five years after New Mexico attained statehood, at a time when Santa Fe was not far removed from the days of the Wild West. In the decades since, the museum has played a significant role in shaping Santa Fe’s status as a major art destination. Designed by architect Isaac Raap, the building set the trend toward Pueblo Revival architecture with which the City Different has become indelibly linked. And among the many famous artists who have walked the galleries displaying their work was Georgia O’Keeffe. Centennial festivities begin with a birthday party on the historic Santa Fe Plaza from 10 AM to 5 PM on Saturday, November 25—100 years to the day after the museum first opened to visitors. Events and activities in and around the museum will include historical reenactors as famous New Mexico artists, a photo booth, birthday cake, art-making activities for visitors of all ages, live music, small theatrical performances, curator conversations, the Wonders on Wheels mobile museum, and much more. Admission to the museum and the party will be free of charge to all on November 25. That date will also see the debut of three new exhibitions at the New Mexico Museum of Art exploring the past and the future of New Mexican art, as well as the special place that photography holds in the history of the state. Following the November 25 event and the exhibition openings, the next 364 days will be highlighted with a series of 100 programs put on by the museum. These will include lectures, performances, exhibitionrelated events, and events for children and families, as well as civic events, for which the museum is a well-suited venue. Admission to most of these programs will be included in the cost of museum admission or will be entirely free of charge. The Georgia O’Keeffe Museum salutes the New Mexico Museum of Art’s centennial celebration! For more, visit nmartmuseum.org.

THE PEDERNAL SOCIETY

“It’s my private mountain. It belongs to me. God told me if I painted it enough, I could have it.” —GEORGIA O’KEEFFE

The Pedernal Mountain moved and inspired Georgia O’Keeffe as she studied and painted it from her home and studio at Ghost Ranch. After her death, her ashes were scattered atop Pedernal, as a testament to the bond she felt with the mountain. As Pedernal inspired O’Keeffe, we hope the Pedernal Society will inspire you in your planned giving. We invite you to join this newly formed society, comprising donors who have named the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum in their will, trust, retirement plan, life insurance policy, or financial accounts. A bequest of any size will qualify you to join this special group. Your gift will help the Museum fulfill its vision to cultivate memorable, authentic experiences inspired by the life, work, and world of Georgia O’Keeffe. For more information, or if you’ve already named the O’Keeffe Museum in your estate plans, please contact Colleen Kelly, Senior Director, Advancement and Communications, at 505.946.1048 or ckelly@okeeffemuseum.org. The Georgia O’Keeffe Museum cannot provide legal or tax advice. Before making a gift, please consult your attorney or financial planner. AB OVE : Georgia O’Keeffe, My Front Yard, Summer, 1941.
