Essex Institute

Annual Report 1986-87

Chairman's Report

Dear Members and Friends of the Essex Institute:

The Essex Institute depends on the resources of the community in order to serve as a center for Essex County history to be collected, studied, and enjoyed. Fiscal year 1987 will be remembered as a year when support of the Institute jumped drama¬ tically. I would like to thank each individual who contributed to the Institute, through membership and donations. For the second year in a row, the Essex Institute continued to broaden its base of financial support from fundraising activities and earned income sources, resulting a 27 percent increase over the previous year.

The Essex Institute is indebted to the many local residents and community leaders who volunteer their time to the Essex Institute. Of particular note are those trustees whose term ended at the end of this fiscal year: Thomas A. Askew, Jr., Wenham; Mrs. John B. Ballou, Salem; John J. Fox, Danvers; Mrs. Emerson T. Oliver, Marblehead; and Francis P. Story, Prides Crossing. In helping to guide the Institute, trustees offer their skills and their knowledge of the region.

Of course, the backbone of the Institute is its membership, which increased 14 percent over the previous year to 1,700 strong — representing local, regional, and national support. Our corporate mem¬ bers program has grown to 166 members in three categories. This “business to business” cooperation makes apparent that the Essex Institute is an important resource in the community.

Fundraising activities experienced a significant boost. A $25,000 trustee challenge enabled the

Annual Giving Program to achieve a record $126,000. Three donor clubs — Holyoke, Rooster, and President’s — have also helped to stimulate giving, and the Essex Institute is very grateful to everyone who supported annual giving at these generous levels.

Support from the local community is important to secure state and federal grants which signify our increasing professional status in the museum field. During fiscal year 1987, the Institute received grants from the Massachusetts Council on the Arts and Humanities and the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH). The NEH award is quite a milestone in the history of the Essex Institute. It launches a new era in long-range planning for the Institute as we develop the projects of the Museum Neighborhood.

The Essex Institute is learning to make the most of its income-generating opportunities. With the application of basic marketing principles, the Institute achieved a 25 percent increase in admissions revenue and a 40 percent increase in museum shop sales. The Cotting-Smith Assembly House has proven a gracious and profitable rental facility, while special events such as the Harvest Festival and the Oriental Rug Bazaar have become quite popular and financially beneficial for the Institute.

So, as you can see, the Essex Institute is branching out in many directions to make the busi¬ ness of history viable for today!

Chairman

President’s Report

Dear Members and Friends of the Essex Institute:

Each year it is gratifying to review the progress of the Essex Institute, and fiscal year 1987 (April 1, 1986-March 31, 1987) is no exception. Increasingly at the Essex Institute, we recognize two “bottom lines.” Like many businesses we set goals for income and a budget for expenses — a financial bottom line. But we also have a second bottom line that is tied to our mission to collect, preserve, study, and interpret the history of the Essex County people from the seventeenth century to the present. This second bottom line is the reason we are in business. Thanks to the generosity of the community and the hard work of a dedicated board of trustees and staff, we have continued to broaden our scope of programs while achieving a financial break-even position for the second year in a row.

Federal Period Glass

The Institute continues to add to its rich collec¬ tions — a memory of Essex County past. This year, the Institute received 1 ,057 objects into the museum and the library collections from 120 donors — painting, decorative arts of all sorts, costume, books and manuscripts, diaries and photographs — stretching over three hundred years. Among the highlights were thirty pieces of Federal period glass, which belonged to Joseph White, the second owner of the Gardner-Pingree House. Another important acquisition for the Gardner-Pingree House is an

17th Century paneled chest

exquisite garniture of the same period ( circa 1790-1810), of polychrome Chinese export. A rare, virtually untouched seventeenth-century paneled chest now joins an already distinguished collection of early Essex County furniture.

The James Duncan Phillips Library continued to thrive as a center of scholarly enterprise at all levels of research — amateur, student, and professional. During the year, the library staff served 2,694 readers in person, about 13 percent of whom were members, and answered 600 letters from re¬ searchers around the world. Topics researched included: the changing image of England in America, 1800-1860; the growth of radicalism in pre-revolutionary Salem; the mapping of Essex County’s coastline; and Canton, China, 1780-1880. The Essex County Business Records project is a par¬ tnership between staff and fifteen Essex Institute corporate members to catalog and preserve some of the many account books in our collections. It has already led to many new discoveries — with a collection of 4,000 volumes, the opportunity for a new view of the past is almost unlimited.

Exhibitions are an important means of comm¬ unicating history to the general public. This year “A Matter of Taste: Cooking and Dining at Home, 1686-1986” focused on one of the essentials of life: food. The response to the show exceeded anyone’s expectations, and certainly contributed to this year’s surge in admissions. There were a number of welcome new gifts and purchases, particularly twen¬ tieth-century items for the exhibition.

Collecting and preserving material culture separates us from other educational institutions, but, as a museum and library, education is our fun-

damental reason for existence. The Essex Institute is an educational institution, and this year a record 62,000 people — you, other members and friends, and visitors to the North Shore — came to the Institute library, museum galleries, and historic houses to learn of and from the past. Included in that total were 8,000 school children from all over New England who came to the Institute as an extension of their classroom learning.

Education and membership programs continue to grow. Highlights this year included the second Essex Institute field trip, which gave a group of members the opportunity to learn more about the regional culture of Savannah, Georgia. Back at home, the Harvest Festival continued to grow for the third year as a celebration of traditional crafts and culture with a regional and national audience. We also inaugurated “Eerie Events” during Halloween. These lantern-lit house tours featured costumed guides telling mysterious tales of Essex County during Salem’s city-wide celebration, “Haunted Happenings.”

Perhaps the single most important achievement of this fiscal year was a $400,000 challenge grant award from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), which launches a two million dollar capital campaign for the Essex Institute

Museum Neighborhood. The NEH Challenge Grant program is very competitive with high standards for its applicants, and the award represents national recognition of the Institute’s goals as a model for future museum planning. Projects include a major restoration of the Gardner-Pingree House and the Derby-Beebe summerhouse and gardens. In recreating a neighborhood of the 1790-1820 period, the Crowninshield-Bently House will also undergo some restoration work. New programs and tours will be developed which utilize the houses, their collections, and the history associated with them. The Plummer Hall auditorium will be renovated and a new exhibition gallery will be created. A new climate control system in the library stacks will be installed. Endowments for the education program, exhibitions, and paper conservation will be esta¬ blished, and the Gardner-Pingree House endowment will be increased to maintain the restoration work for years to come.

Your continued support as members and friends of the Essex Institute will make it flourish in the coming years. Thank you!
