L I I ,. is .tixtcen 55:-PURPLE AND GOLD THE ART MUSEUM Toledo is fortunate in having an art museum rich in association and in treasure. The building is one of the most perfect examples of a classic Greek temple, to be found in America. In 1903, George W. Stevens, director of the institute, realized that the main work of an art museum is to benefit a community both in a cultural and an educational way. For this reason he encouraged guilds, clubs, and societies to further artistic interests in the city. From the very beginning Mr. Stevens said: We must make adults out of our children, and all his work was based on this theory. Each year a season of free educational activities begins at the museum in October, and continues until April. These include concerts for adults, story hours and motion pictures for children each Sunday afternoon, lecture recitals for students on Friday after- noon, an art history class followed by a lecture or concert each Thursday afternoon, and music hours and educational motion pictures on Saturday afteroon. There are classes for children in color design, drawing, composition, posters, home planning and lettering. The picture galleries hold most interest for visitors to the Museum. Such valued paintings as Moonlight, by Blacklock, The Woodchopperf' Homeward Bound, and Sheep of the Dunes, are pictures that give great delight to the interested visitor, while the Daily Bread and Self-Portrait are numbered among the famous museum treasures. The statuary housed in the museum is unuusually good. In the Egyptian room are treasures from tombs of Egyptian kings who lived and died many thousand yeas be- fore the time of, Christ. Glass, vases, and other expensive pottery are to be found in the museum, combining to form an impressive array of the finest of artistic material that is possible to be found. To give an entire list of the treasures of the museum would be impossible. It is, however, well to remind ourselves that we are indeed fortunate to have such a building and such a collection of art in our city, within the reach of all. A The statutary housed in the museum is unusually good. In the Egyptian room are the museum, combining to form an impressive array of the finest of artistic material that This museum was founded and maintained in a large measure by Mr. Edward D. Libbey, who made possible this institute by his generosity. Upon his death, he bequeathed almost his entire fortune, amounting to several millions of dollars, to the up-building and maintenance of the Museum of Art. lG'N9ql!'W-'W' 'Fl'
