SALINA ART CENTER
REPORT TO THE CITY COMMISSION

REQUEST
The Salina Art Center is requesting an amendment to the facility
agreement with the City of Salina to include the utilities, !
maintenance, and janitorial costs for the adjacent property 'of 236
South Santa Fe, in its current contractual arrangements. Since the
move to downtown Salina in February of 1988, the City and the Salina
Art Center have been in a contractual facility agreement for the
property at 242 South Santa Fe.
This request is based upon the high usage and increasingly high demand
for the educational program that the Salina Art Center is providing to
the citizenry.
The adjacent building will meet the public demand 'in two major areas.
.
* Discovery Area. The hands-on art education area is free and open to
all children in Salina and the region during open hours. This area
carries high traffic from both supervised and unsupervised young
people on a daily basis. No children are denied entry and the Art
Center considers the need for a welcoming, safe and educational place
for students as a major part of its mission on Salina's "main street."
A trained volunteer is always present to guide, encourage and attend
to these young people. This area is expanding quickly and needs more
space. The new building will double the Discovery Area capacity and
enable a wider variety of activities for all ages. The Discovery Area
and all exhibitions at the Art Center are free.
* WorkShOps and Classes. The Art Center carries a full load of
classes for young people throughout the year; in the summer, several'
different classes are often taught simultaneously. For three years,
the Salina Art Center has worked cooperatively with the Salina Parks
and Recreation Department to provide this high quality and popular art
program that is economically accessible to all. The emphasis on
accessibility has helped the art center broaden it's scope while
maintaining a high level of quality. Enrollment in this program is
growing and this summer's count of individuals is 646, boosting
participation to well over 1500. All of these programs are held at
the Salina Art Center or Lakewood Lodge. This summer the new building
is already in use for these public programs, providing space for
classes and workshops which otherwise could not be offered because of
space limitations. Total visitation at the Salina Art Center was
21,637 this fiscal year.
Salina Art Center is proud to be one of Salina's cultural, educational
and recreational assets. We look forward to playing a major role in
the future of our community.

HORIZONS - A SPECIAL PROJECTS GRANT
EVALUATOR - JIM POWERS, KANSAS MUSEUM OF HISTORY, TOPEKA
The Discovery Area at the Salina Art Center is a delightfully innovative
facility which has been effective in removing barriers that have
traditionally existed between the "art" in art museums (and centers) and
the majority of visitors to these institutions which have often and
justifiably been called "ivory towers." The Salina Art Center is no
"ivory tower" and the Discovery Area is one very important reason why.
EVALUATOR - ANDREW SVEDLOW, MULVANE ART CENTER, TOPEKA
This is a cultural institution that Salina can be very proud of and which
is truly a model for community art institutions and for art education.
The environment, the staff, the materials and publications, the
promotional mechanism, and all the other details of an Art Center's
public programs are operational, creative, stimulating and very sound.
The Salina Art Center is a fixture in the Salina community with a grOWing
statewide reputation for its high quality and commitment to bringing art
into the daily lives of its audiences.

Art for .everyone..
Say "art" and few 'people would
think "comic strip." .
The exhibit that opened this wcek at
the Salina Art Center proves there's
art in the comics. What's morc it
. proves that the Salina Art Ccntcr docs
not plan to be. just a "highbrow,
boring" place downtown frequented
only by a handful of art connoisseurs.
The exhibit, which traces the his-
. tory of comics Crom their beginning in
.1896 to the present, is the first for the
.art center in its new location at 242 S.
. Santa Fe. Along with the exhibit, the
center unvciled its new building.
Both the exhibit and the buildinr;
are admirable. The renovation of the
old building preserved distinctive
architectural features while creatinr;
. pleasant and functional spaces for
exhibits, galiery talks and hands-on
art'workshops.
It's a worthwhile. addition to
Salina's downtown - a r;ood place to
stop in for a few minutes on a lunch
hour or a break from errands as well
its a place to go for a pror;ram or to
spend some free weekend time.
The current exhibit has something
for everyone from oldsters to younr;-
sters, Crom connoiss.eurs to those who
don't know a Picasso from a kid's
finr;er-paintinr;.
I
For those with a special interest in
and knowledge of art there arc spe-
cial treats: an early cartoon by
Lyoncl Fclninger, for example.
For youngsters therc are orir;inal.
drawinr;s of current favoritcs like
Peanuts. For the r;randparents there
arc old-time favorites that will bring
memories,like Krazy Kat aod Winnie
Winkle.
The gallery is open from noon to 5
p.m. Tuesday through Sunday and
from noon to 7 p.m. on Thursdays.
Admission is free. Stop in and take a
look.

The Salina Art Center Board of Directors and
staff invite you to take a look at the record of
Fiscal Year 1988-89. Read it and share in its
successes. None of what these pages contain was
accomplished alone, and the names of the people
listed here were key as the Salina Art Center set
new records and reached new milestones.
Those records and milestones are reflected
most distinctly in terms of people. Participation
in exhibitions and programs, memberships,
volunteerism, and artistic input reached new
peaks. Old friends and newcomers found a place
for their interests and talents in a wide variety of
activities. Ties with the community and with the
region were formed and strengthened. This report
is a portrait of each of the many who are the
heartbeat of the Salina Art Center.
We hope the record speaks for itself.
"
"I can't help thinking what a place
like the Salina Art Center would have
meant to me as a boy growing up in
southeastern Kansas. To see
dedicated volunteers and first-rate
professionals pulling together so
effectively to realize the ambitious
dream of bringing art to Main Street
gives me hope for the future,"
- Bret Waller, Associate Director for
Education and Public Affairs
J. Paul Getty Museum
Malibu, Calif.
"Just when I begin to think that our
pumpkin contest may be growing
stale )IOu breathe new life into the
activity with a creative flair that
tickled the Imagination and hearts
of everyone who attended,"
- Jerry L. Baxa, Principal
Meadowlark School

This year at the Salina Art Center has been marked by many
firsts made possible by the work of so many.
Tbe Board of Directors participated in its first retreat, where
one-year, three-year, and five-year goals were outlined. We
have already accomplished many of them: the addition of a
full-time administrative assistant, the copyrighting of the
Discovery Area and its many components. the establishment
of a Regional Exhibition Council. and tlle expansion of
programs of many kinds.
The Art Center successfully purchased and paid for the
building next door to the present facility to insure the future
expansion of the Salina Art Center and to boost our regional
visibility. Plans for remodeling are under way and we hope
to make an announcement soon.
We ended the year with 521 members - a new high -
thanks to Paula Fried and her committee. We are proud of
our 23 corporate sponsors. another new high.
The Salina Art Center is just a vibrant, forceful expression of
the arts in Salina, Kansas. The unique dedication of the paid
and non-paid staff makes lhe administration of the Art Center
efficient and productive.
It has been very rewarding to work this year with a board who
wants to work as hard as I want to work. and with a director
who wants to work even harde~

A portrait of the Salina Art Center is a composite of many
faces. a lengthy role of names and titles and a frame that
stretches far beyond our walls at 242 Santa Fe. downtown
Salina This year our membership expanded. our regional and
local attendance gt"e\\\ and our program diversified.
Our growl:h reflects our reliance upon independent and
creative people with vision. ideas and the fortitude to follow
those ideas to completion. You. the members. continue to
stretch the limits of what is possible for the Salina Art Cente~
Active members and staff laughingly joke about having a good
idea out loud because it ends up on your list to do. a playful
yet demanding way of accomplishing big dreams within our
institution and our community. Every task is bigger than ex-
pected. every one worth the effort in the end.
This year the efforts of people brought about a new building,
a freedom of expression policy, a jurored show lhat stretched
into surrounding states, a record year for grants. and the
most involvement of people's time and money that we have
ever enjoyed.
As this year closes, I must salute the most dedicated group of
people that I can imagine or envision. the staff. board. artisl$.
and membership of the Salina Art Center.

"You have a fine group of communHy
supporters and a fabulous gallery. It
was by far the finest I have ever
shown In . .. You've got a great
thing going."
- Dale Ficken, artist and winner of 10th
Annual Jurored Art Exhibition
"People's Choice" award
"The Discovery Area at the Salina Art
Center Is a delightfully Innovative
facility which has been effective In
removing ba"iers that have tradi-
tionally existed between the 'art' In
art museums (and centers) and the
majority of visitors to these Institu-
tions which have often and JustNlably
been called 'ivory towers.' The Salina
Art Center is no 'ivory tower' and the
Discovery Area is one very Important
reason why."

enjoyable part of my American
experience. It was just wonderful

the only place I visited, I talk about
it so much."
"The Art Center was really a 'neat
place' to go. We really liked the
