It’s our 75th Anniversary, a Diamond Jubilee, and the staff at Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute wish you a happy, creative new year. These are some of the things we are anticipating:

Tierney Sutton and her band will perform in January.

Nancy Coté Baber, Executive Administrative Assistant: “I am looking forward to the Tierney Sutton Band’s performance on January 22. I was privileged to hear their rendition of “Caravan” while driving the other day and I truly lost sight of the road for a time. Also, my husband and I will celebrate our fifth wedding anniversary with a trip to the wilds of Quebec in June, and I look forward to making more precious memories with my Mom, who turns 90 this coming year. So much anticipation…!”

Francy's going to Italy!

Francy Caprino, Director of Enrollment Management PrattMWP: “I’m looking forward to making a lot of artwork in Utica this spring and going to Italy in August!”

Meg Gianetti, Educator for School Programs: “I’m always excited about finding new connections between our permanent collection and the traveling exhibitions that come here. I think the Ansel Adams exhibition coming next fall will work very nicely with our collection and I think school groups will really enjoy it.”

Cindy Koren, Associate Professor of Communications Design, PrattMWP: “I’m looking forward to planning the 2011-2012 Easton Pribble Lecture series. AND I was surprised and thrilled to find out that MWPAI is bringing Ellen Lupton in this February.”

Ellen Lupton will speak about design in everyday life.

Charlie Musslewhite will perform with Hot Tuna

Mary Murray, Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art: “I am full of anticipation for both the Tierney Sutton Concerts in the Court performance and the Hot Tuna Great Artists Series  performance. Also I am hoping to spend a week in Florida with my sister.”

What are YOU looking forward to this year? We invite you to put the Institute’s varied, colorful programs on your calendar.
