Message from <strong>the</strong> Executive Director<br />
As one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> premier cultural institutions serving <strong>the</strong> Long Island region, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong><br />
<strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Art</strong> acts as a stimulus and focal point for discovery and exploration in <strong>the</strong> arts.<br />
Each year, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> mounts changing exhibitions <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> highest caliber that are designed<br />
to engage our visitors, members as well as <strong>the</strong> children and families <strong>of</strong> our community.<br />
The year <strong>2004</strong> began with one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> most successful exhibitions ever mounted at <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>Heckscher</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Art</strong>, The Golden Age <strong>of</strong> American Impressionism. Officially opened in<br />
November 2003, <strong>the</strong> exhibition continued through <strong>the</strong> beginning <strong>of</strong> February <strong>2004</strong>, with<br />
crowds that literally waited on line in blizzards to view <strong>the</strong> visually stunning works by<br />
Mary Cassatt, William Merritt Chase, Childe Hassam, John Singer Sargent, John Twachtman,<br />
and o<strong>the</strong>r giants <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> American Impressionist movement. This exquisite exhibition was<br />
curated exclusively for <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> by <strong>the</strong> renowned art historian Dr. William Gerdts.<br />
This momentous start to <strong>the</strong> year was just one component <strong>of</strong> an ambitious and significant<br />
schedule <strong>of</strong> expanded educational and exhibition outreach, which ultimately impacted<br />
94,299 onsite, <strong>of</strong>fsite and web-based visitors. A total <strong>of</strong> 42,191 individuals engaged in <strong>the</strong><br />
viewing <strong>of</strong> exhibitions and vital learning experiences at <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> to fur<strong>the</strong>r <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
knowledge and understanding <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> visual arts. As part <strong>of</strong> our commitment to <strong>the</strong> broader<br />
community, 8,498 individuals engaged in <strong>of</strong>fsite educational outreach programs for adults<br />
and students <strong>of</strong>fered by <strong>the</strong> <strong>Museum</strong>.<br />
<strong>Heckscher</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Art</strong><br />
As <strong>the</strong> year continued, exhibitions such as Red Grooms: Selections From <strong>the</strong> Graphic Works;<br />
American Studio Glass: A Survey <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Movement; A Century <strong>of</strong> Collecting (from <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong>’s<br />
own Permanent Collection); and Feast <strong>the</strong> Eye: Fool <strong>the</strong> Eye brought audiences from throughout<br />
<strong>the</strong> nation and <strong>the</strong> world. The <strong>Heckscher</strong> continued its strong tradition <strong>of</strong> community<br />
collaboration <strong>of</strong>fering exhibitions such as <strong>the</strong> <strong>Art</strong> League’s 49th Exhibition <strong>of</strong> Long Island <strong>Art</strong>ists;<br />
Long Island’s Best: Young <strong>Art</strong>ists at <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong>; Frank Wimberley: <strong>Art</strong> and Soul; Howardena<br />
Pindell: Visual Affinities and Collections in Context: Modern Matters, Recent Acquisitions. The<br />
<strong>Heckscher</strong> is indebted to our neighboring community agencies, cultural institutions, and local<br />
school districts that have so significantly contributed in our efforts to best serve <strong>the</strong> region.<br />
One <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> highlights <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> year occurred in <strong>the</strong> month <strong>of</strong> March, when <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> was<br />
honored by a visit from Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton. The Senator viewed <strong>the</strong> exhibitions,<br />
learned from tours led by Junior and High School Docents, and spoke before an enthusiastic<br />
audience about <strong>the</strong> importance <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> arts in our society in general, and particularly about <strong>the</strong><br />
valuable role that <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Art</strong> holds for Long Islanders.<br />
In July <strong>2004</strong>, at <strong>the</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> Members’ Meeting, we paid tribute to Ca<strong>the</strong>rine A. Jansen for<br />
her lasting contributions as Chairman <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Board <strong>of</strong> Trustees. In addition to a new roster<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong>ficers, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> welcomed Margy Hargraves as its new Chairman <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Board.<br />

In November, at <strong>the</strong> Century Ball, we fur<strong>the</strong>r honored Ca<strong>the</strong>rine Jansen and her husband<br />
Raymond Jansen for <strong>the</strong>ir valuable role in <strong>the</strong> life <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Long Island community.<br />
During <strong>the</strong> year, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> was honored by gifts that significantly enriched <strong>the</strong><br />
Permanent Collection. Through <strong>the</strong> generosity <strong>of</strong> artists and collectors, in addition to<br />
purchases by <strong>the</strong> <strong>Museum</strong>, 50 works were added to <strong>the</strong> Collection. Among <strong>the</strong>se works<br />
were those created by Dale Chihuly, Thomas Dewing, N. Jay Jaffee, Walt Kuhn,<br />
Betty Parsons, Fairfield Porter, and Keith Sonnier. Purchases by <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> included:<br />
Thomas Anshutz’s Portrait <strong>of</strong> Rebecca Whalen; Edward Steichen’s Moonlight: The Pond;<br />
and George de Forest Brush’s Lady in Red, bringing <strong>the</strong> collection to a total <strong>of</strong> 2,023 works.<br />
The <strong>Museum</strong> also continued its efforts to protect and preserve works in our care through<br />
<strong>the</strong> conservation <strong>of</strong> 19 works by Ilya Bolotowsky, Paul Manship, Charles Henry Miller,<br />
Esphyr Slobodkina, and Keith Sonnier.<br />
The Education and Public Programs Department provided learning opportunities for 22,010<br />
individuals <strong>of</strong> all ages, which were enhanced by <strong>the</strong> 128 public programs <strong>of</strong>fered<br />
throughout <strong>the</strong> course <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> year. Vital curriculum-based visits from 54 school districts
epresenting 310 classes and a total <strong>of</strong> 6,650 students and teachers were a tribute to <strong>the</strong><br />
importance <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong>’s long-standing and popular School Discovery and Long Island’s<br />
Best: Young <strong>Art</strong>ists at <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> Programs. Civic engagement grew through program<br />
<strong>of</strong>ferings such as concerts, symposiums, art history lectures, art-related book discussion<br />
groups, and performances. Children and <strong>the</strong>ir families were introduced to <strong>the</strong> multi-faceted<br />
aspects <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> through engaging programs, workshops, and Family Gallery Guides<br />
in English and Spanish versions. The <strong>Heckscher</strong> on <strong>the</strong> Road Program continued to grow with<br />
outreach visits to area nursing homes, senior housing facilities, and libraries provided by<br />
volunteer docents and our Coordinator <strong>of</strong> Docents and Adult Group Programs, ultimately<br />
impacting 3,400 adults.<br />
In <strong>2004</strong>, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> was fur<strong>the</strong>r honored to receive grants and word <strong>of</strong> grant awards for<br />
our educational programs, exhibitions, and collection management and digitization from a<br />
number <strong>of</strong> sources including <strong>the</strong> prestigious federally funded Institute for <strong>Museum</strong> and Library<br />
Services, The Henry Luce Foundation, Judith Rothschild Foundation, Long Island Fund for<br />
Women and Girls, Lower Hudson Conference, New York State Council on <strong>the</strong> <strong>Art</strong>s, Suffolk<br />
County Office <strong>of</strong> Cultural Affairs, and grants from NYS Senator Carl L. Marcellino, Senator<br />
John Flanagan, and Assemblyman Andrew Raia for a total <strong>of</strong> $422,839.<br />
One <strong>of</strong> our closest partners Frank Petrone, Supervisor <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Town <strong>of</strong> Huntington along with<br />
<strong>the</strong> members <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Town Council and many <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Town staff, are owed a particular note <strong>of</strong><br />
“thanks.” Throughout <strong>the</strong> year, <strong>the</strong>y have provided financial support and services to <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>Museum</strong> that greatly assists in <strong>the</strong> success <strong>of</strong> all <strong>of</strong> our endeavors.<br />
As we reflect upon <strong>the</strong> past year, it will be a year that exemplifies that which is most essential<br />
to <strong>the</strong> mission and goals <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Art</strong>. The <strong>Museum</strong> ultimately provided<br />
twelve outstanding and high quality exhibitions to <strong>the</strong> public that were eclectic, meaningful<br />
and engaging. Through public programs and outreach <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> streng<strong>the</strong>ned meaningful<br />
connections with our colleagues, neighbors and community leaders. We were able to<br />
accomplish many <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> goals set forth in our Three-Year Strategic Plan and to end <strong>the</strong> year<br />
in a fiscally solid position.<br />
The <strong>Heckscher</strong> owes a debt <strong>of</strong> gratitude to <strong>the</strong> individuals, foundations, corporations, and<br />
governmental agencies that have so generously supported <strong>the</strong> ongoing activities <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>Museum</strong>. This past year was a year <strong>of</strong> growth in many areas including sponsorship support,<br />
successful fundraising endeavors, and outstanding exhibitions and educational outreach.<br />
At <strong>the</strong> central core <strong>of</strong> each success reside <strong>the</strong> talents <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> pr<strong>of</strong>essional staff, <strong>the</strong> dedication<br />
and commitment <strong>of</strong> our volunteers, committee members, and <strong>the</strong> Board <strong>of</strong> Trustees.<br />
The <strong>Heckscher</strong> extends its thanks to <strong>the</strong> 314 volunteers who gave so generously <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir time,<br />
providing 7,653 hours <strong>of</strong> service during <strong>2004</strong>.<br />

Message from <strong>the</strong> Chairman <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Board <strong>of</strong> Trustees<br />
This was a year <strong>of</strong> decision making, extremely successful exhibits and some transition for<br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Art</strong>, beginning with <strong>the</strong> exceptional exhibition, The Golden Age <strong>of</strong><br />
American Impressionism, which was followed by o<strong>the</strong>r strong and eclectic exhibitions and<br />
public programs, which set an even higher goal for continued future achievement.<br />
The talents, knowledge and dedication <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> staff <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> are <strong>the</strong> key elements<br />
that bring concepts to reality each year as <strong>the</strong>y keep <strong>the</strong> museum running on a smooth<br />
track, under <strong>the</strong> most capable and very hard working executive director, Beth Levinthal.<br />
The Trustees <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> pay tribute to each <strong>of</strong> our pr<strong>of</strong>essional staff members and<br />
volunteers, whose contributions cannot be overstated.<br />
In a fiscally challenging economic environment, we were pleased to see that <strong>the</strong> efforts <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>the</strong> staff and Trustees brought us to a firm financial position at year’s end. The support <strong>of</strong> our<br />
individual members, volunteers, and <strong>the</strong> business and corporate community, governmental<br />
agencies and leaders is greatly appreciated by <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong>. We pay special tribute to<br />
Supervisor Frank Petrone <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Town <strong>of</strong> Huntington, and Town Council members Marlene<br />
Budd, Mark Cuthbertson, Susan Berland, and Mark Capodanno for <strong>the</strong>ir steadfast support and<br />
partnership.<br />
During <strong>the</strong> course <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> year, <strong>the</strong> leadership <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Board <strong>of</strong> Trustees was to witness a change<br />
for <strong>the</strong> first time in seven years. At <strong>the</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> Members’ Meeting in July, we paid tribute to<br />
<strong>the</strong> remarkable accomplishments <strong>of</strong> Ca<strong>the</strong>rine A. Jansen as she stepped down from her<br />
successful term as Chairman <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Board <strong>of</strong> Trustees. Ca<strong>the</strong>rine has been instrumental in<br />
assuring that <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> is a strong and vibrant museum <strong>of</strong>fering multicultural<br />
programming and outreach, as well as building significant business and corporate<br />
relationships, at <strong>the</strong> same time that she broadened and streng<strong>the</strong>ned leadership on <strong>the</strong> Board<br />
and <strong>the</strong> Chairman’s Council. We owe a huge debt <strong>of</strong> gratitude to her for providing a legacy<br />
that will serve <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Art</strong> and our community well for years to come.<br />
While we pay tribute to <strong>the</strong> many accomplishments <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> past year, we also take time to<br />
reflect upon <strong>the</strong> future endeavors <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong>. In September, we witnessed <strong>the</strong><br />
ceremonial groundbreaking that portends <strong>the</strong> future <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Museum</strong>. The <strong>Heckscher</strong> <strong>Museum</strong><br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>Art</strong> is one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> finest small museums in <strong>the</strong> nation and we are poised for exciting<br />
evolution and growth, both programmatically and in <strong>the</strong> physical plant. As we begin <strong>the</strong><br />
celebration <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> 85th year <strong>of</strong> this remarkable Long Island cultural institution, it is with <strong>the</strong><br />
clear knowledge that <strong>the</strong> best is yet to come!<br />

The Year in Review<br />
EDUCATION AND PUBLIC PROGRAMS<br />
The <strong>Museum</strong>’s Education Department is committed to establishing relationships between<br />
people and art. As a team, <strong>the</strong> Department educates, collaborates, inspires, and in many<br />
instances forms friendships with art lovers <strong>of</strong> all ages. Throughout <strong>the</strong> year <strong>the</strong> Department<br />
<strong>of</strong>fered 128 programs that educated and entertained children, students, families, and adult<br />
audiences. A total <strong>of</strong> 22,010 individuals were impacted, including 12,578 adults and<br />
9,432 children. With assistance from museum educators, art historians, artists, and<br />
performers, it was proven that any location could be transformed into an interactive learning<br />
environment, whe<strong>the</strong>r in <strong>the</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> galleries or on one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> many outreach program<br />
sites. The content and quality <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> program <strong>of</strong>ferings continues to expand <strong>the</strong> <strong>Museum</strong>’s<br />
reputation as a premier cultural center.<br />
The special exhibitions presented throughout <strong>the</strong> year provided <strong>the</strong> inspiration for such<br />
programs as <strong>Art</strong>ists’ Studio Tours; Interpreting for Impact: Superintendents’ Day Pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />
Development Educator Workshop; and Trompe-l’oeil: Public Vision a presentation by muralist<br />
William Cochran. This insightful lecture brought toge<strong>the</strong>r Vision Long Island, <strong>the</strong> Town <strong>of</strong><br />
Huntington Public <strong>Art</strong>s Advisory Board, and <strong>the</strong> general public for <strong>the</strong> shared vision <strong>of</strong><br />
bringing <strong>the</strong> community toge<strong>the</strong>r through public art.<br />
The Education Department connected with community partners for a variety <strong>of</strong> new<br />
initiatives. The first annual Community <strong>Art</strong>Sense Exhibition was a successful collaboration<br />
with <strong>the</strong> Huntington Public Library that extended <strong>the</strong> popular summer program to new<br />
audiences. The Huntington Public Library Station Branch provided <strong>the</strong> exhibition space to<br />
kick-<strong>of</strong>f this project featuring 14 original student expressions, which <strong>of</strong>fered color and<br />
original art to <strong>the</strong> Library. The <strong>Museum</strong> also partnered with <strong>the</strong> Huntington Public Library<br />
and <strong>the</strong> Huntington <strong>Art</strong>s Council for Family Discovery Nights during <strong>the</strong> summer months.<br />
SCHOOL DISCOVERY PROGRAMS<br />
School Discovery Programs provided students in grades K–12 with valuable introductions to<br />
<strong>the</strong> world <strong>of</strong> museums and <strong>the</strong> visual arts. Students were challenged to use critical thinking<br />
skills, enhance <strong>the</strong>ir communication skills, and develop important connections between art<br />
and <strong>the</strong> changing world. In <strong>2004</strong>, 54 school districts participated in <strong>the</strong>se in-gallery sessions.<br />
At year’s end a total <strong>of</strong> 6,650 individuals had participated in our School Discovery Programs,<br />
including 5,864 students and 786 adults, from 310 classes. Additionally, over 40 school<br />
districts participated in Long Island’s Best: Young <strong>Art</strong>ists at <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong>, an annual arts-ineducation<br />
program that encourages high school students throughout Nassau and Suffolk<br />
Counties to view <strong>the</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> as an inspirational resource in <strong>the</strong>ir lives. Students who<br />
participated were encouraged to develop <strong>the</strong>ir own personal artistic interpretations to works<br />
viewed in <strong>the</strong> galleries. A select group <strong>of</strong> approximately 80 works were <strong>the</strong>n showcased in<br />
a two-week long exhibition at <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong>.<br />
During <strong>the</strong> year, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> <strong>of</strong>fered our Junior and High School Docent Programs to<br />
3 school districts. <strong>Museum</strong> Educators trained 93 Junior and High School Docents, and in<br />

addition to learning <strong>the</strong> behind-<strong>the</strong>-scenes workings <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> and communicating<br />
exhibition information through peer-to-peer presentations to over 1,000 students, this<br />
group <strong>of</strong> young docents was asked to face an even greater challenge, that <strong>of</strong> presenting to<br />
Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton.<br />
On March 13, <strong>2004</strong>, Senator Clinton visited <strong>the</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> and observed our High School<br />
and Junior Docents in action. Senator Clinton viewed <strong>the</strong> colorful and energetic exhibition,<br />
Red Grooms: Selections from <strong>the</strong> Graphic Work, received a personal tour from <strong>the</strong> Huntington<br />
High School Docents, and heard a short lesson on printmaking techniques from Birchwood<br />
Intermediate School Junior Docents. The Junior Docents also presented her with an original<br />
series <strong>of</strong> prints that <strong>the</strong>y created while experiencing printmaking in <strong>the</strong> <strong>Museum</strong>’s<br />
classroom. Senator Clinton addressed all <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> visitors in <strong>the</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> that afternoon and<br />
was quite impressed by <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong> and <strong>the</strong> docent presentations.<br />
TEACHER PROGRAMS<br />
Educator workshops provide insight and strategies for integrating art and exhibitions into<br />
<strong>the</strong> classroom curriculum. The Education Department provided educators an opportunity to<br />
receive In-Service credit at a two-day summer workshop, American Studio Glass: A Survey <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>the</strong> Movement. Over 150 teachers participated in educator workshops in <strong>2004</strong>.<br />
As <strong>the</strong> year came to an end <strong>the</strong> Education Department developed a new educational tool<br />
intended to provide students with <strong>the</strong> opportunity to respond to and analyze works <strong>of</strong> art,<br />
and make personal connections between artwork within <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong>’s permanent<br />
collection. Playing cards highlighting pieces from <strong>the</strong> Collection were created to transform<br />
looking at artwork into a curatorial game <strong>of</strong> selecting <strong>the</strong>mes, writing wall text, and<br />
mounting exhibitions. This game was designed to be multi-layered and to involve<br />
role-playing, story-telling, and oral presentations. Eyes on <strong>Art</strong>: A <strong>Museum</strong> Collection<br />
Interpretation Game has been used at educator workshops.<br />
VOLUNTEERS AND INTERNS<br />
The <strong>Museum</strong> is indebted to <strong>the</strong> valuable contributions <strong>of</strong> its volunteers and interns.<br />
Volunteer docents become <strong>the</strong> friendly face representing <strong>the</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> at Gallery Talks,<br />
Docent Tours, and at many public programs. This year 46 docents contributed<br />
4,085 hours <strong>of</strong> service to <strong>the</strong> <strong>Museum</strong>. The dedication and expertise <strong>of</strong> our docents<br />
impacted 5,567 visitors that attended Gallery Talks and Tours. Volunteer docents also<br />
assisted instruction for <strong>Heckscher</strong> on <strong>the</strong> Road, our adult outreach program, which reached<br />
a total <strong>of</strong> 3,400 adults in nursing homes, senior centers, and libraries.<br />
Through collaborations and partnerships with local colleges and universities, a total <strong>of</strong><br />
6 interns volunteered, were hired, or received school-to-work credit. Interns assisted with<br />
our Education, Development and Registrar’s departments. In addition to receiving valuable<br />
experience in <strong>the</strong> museum field, interns contributed 643 hours <strong>of</strong> service.<br />
In <strong>2004</strong>, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> had a total <strong>of</strong> 314 volunteers who collectively contributed<br />
7,653 hours <strong>of</strong> service to <strong>the</strong> <strong>Heckscher</strong>. We are deeply grateful for all <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
contributions that helped assure <strong>the</strong> success <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Museum</strong>.
