Desc	CURATORIAL AND RELATED SUPPORT:IN ADDITION TO THE COLLECTION-BASED AND SPECIAL EXHIBITIONS SHOWN AT THE WHITNEY'S BREUER BUILDING ON MADISON AVENUE, THE MAJOR CURATORIAL PROJECT OF FY15 WAS TO PREPARE AND INSTALL THE WHITNEY'S PERMANENT COLLECTION FOR ITS PRESENTATION IN THE INAUGURAL EXHIBITION AT THE WHITNEY'S NEW DOWNTOWN HOME, AMERICA IS HARD TO SEE. THIS EXHIBITION WAS THE CULMINATION OF YEARS OF RESEARCH AND PLANNING, ASSESSING THE OBJECTS IN THE COLLECTION, EVALUATING STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES IN TERMS OF A DEDICATION TO REFLECTING THE BREADTH OF AMERICAN HISTORY AND EXPERIENCE, AND SELECTING THE MORE THAN 600 WORKS TO SHOW. WORK IS ONGOING TO DIGITIZE THE MUSEUM'S SPECIAL COLLECTIONS, PART OF THE INCREASING SCOPE OF THE CONSERVATION TEAM IN ITS GREATLY ENLARGED FACILITY. A MAJOR STEP WAS TO PUT THE ENTIRE PERMANENT COLLECTION ON-LINE IN JANUARY 2015, MAKING IT AVAILABLE AND SEARCHABLE TO PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD. AND IN APRIL 2015, THE MUSEUM PUBLISHED ITS FIRST UPDATE OF ITS COLLECTION HANDBOOK SINCE 2001, FEATURING 350 ARTISTS WORKING IN A RANGE OF MEDIA. THE NEW BUILDING IS NOW ABLE TO HOLD IMPORTANT PIECES OF THE LIBRARY AND SPECIAL COLLECTIONS ON SITE AS WELL AS ABOUT 15,000 WORKS ON PAPER THAT ARE STORED IN THE SONDRA GILMAN STUDY CENTER, SUBSTANTIALLY INCREASING ACCESS TO THEM FOR CURATORS AND SCHOLARS. THE GILMAN STUDY CENTER WAS CONCEIVED FOR CROSS-MEDIUM, CROSS-DISCIPLINARY RESEARCH, ALLOWING ACCESS TO THE COLLECTION AND CLOSE MATERIAL AND TECHNICAL EXAMINATION OF OBJECTS BY MUSEUM STAFF, AS WELL AS BY ARTISTS, SCHOLARS, AND RESEARCHERS. AS SUCH, THE GILMAN STUDY CENTER IS A FUNDAMENTAL RESOURCE FOR HISTORIANS AND CURATORS OF MODERN AND CONTEMPORARY ART, MAKING THE WHITNEY'S WORLD-CLASS HOLDINGS AVAILABLE FOR PRIMARY RESEARCH AND IN-DEPTH CONSULTATION FOR THE FIRST TIME IN ITS HISTORY. THE WHITNEY ALSO CONTINUED TO PREPARE FOR THE UPCOMING EXHIBITIONS BEYOND FY15, UNDERSTANDING THAT THE LARGER SCALE OF THE BUILDING WOULD REQUIRE MORE WORK TO FILL WITH THE HIGH QUALITY, ARTIST-DRIVEN EXHIBITIONS AT THE HEART OF THE WHITNEY'S MISSION THAT MAKE USE OF ITS LARGER SPACES BUT ALSO THE NEW POSSIBILITIES OFFERED BY OUTDOOR TERRACES, A THEATER AND BLACK BOX, AND MORE.

Desc	EDUCATION PROGRAMS:IN FY15, THE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT MOVED DOWNTOWN TO THE WHITNEY'S NEW BUILDING AT 99 GANSEVOORT STREET. DURING THE FINAL EXHIBITION AT THE BREUER BUILDING, JEFF KOONS: A RETROSPECTIVE, THE WHITNEY EDUCATION DEPARTMENT SERVED VISITORS THROUGH SCHOOL & EDUCATOR PROGRAMS, PUBLIC PROGRAMS, SENIOR PROGRAMS, FAMILY PROGRAMS, TEEN PROGRAMS, COMMUNITY PROGRAMS, AND INTERPRETATION PROGRAMS.

WHILE THE WHITNEY MUSEUM PREPARED TO OPEN IN ITS NEW BUILDING IN THE SPRING OF 2015, THE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT LAUNCHED A PROGRAM DESIGNED TO SERVE AND ENGAGE ITS DIVERSE AND GROWING AUDIENCES. DEEP ATLAS, A COLLABORATIVE ART PROJECTED ORGANIZED BY THE WHITNEY EDUCATION DEPARTMENT AND COMMUNITY ARTIST-IN-RESIDENCE LIZE MOGEL, BROUGHT TOGETHER TEENS, COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS, AND SCHOOLS TO EXPLORE MAPPING AND MAP-MAKING IN THE CONTEXT OF THE WHITNEY'S NEW SITE. FROM JANUARY MAY 2015, WHITNEY EDUCATORS FACILITATED MAP-BASED ART PROJECTS WITH NINETEEN DIFFERENT ORGANIZATIONS AND SCHOOLS SERVING OVER 450 PARTICIPANTS. ON MAY 1, 2015, THE WHITNEY MUSEUM OPENED THE LAURIE M. TISCH EDUCATION CENTER. FOR THE FIRST TIME IN ITS HISTORY THE WHITNEY HAS A DEDICATED SPACE FOR EDUCATION. THE CENTER INCLUDES A DEDICATED STUDIO SPACE FOR HANDS-ON ART MAKING WORKSHOPS, A SEMINAR ROOM FOR COURSES AND OTHER PROGRAMS, AND IS ADJACENT TO A MULTI-PURPOSE THEATER SPACE. THESE NEW SPACES ENABLE WHITNEY EDUCATION TO EXPAND ITS OFFERINGS ACROSS PROGRAM AREAS, ENRICHING THE MUSEUM'S PUBLIC PROGRAMS, FAMILY PROGRAMS, SCHOOL PROGRAMS, AND TEEN PROGRAMS. DURING THE MUSEUM'S OPENING WEEKEND, WHITNEY EDUCATION COLLABORATED WITH THE CURATORIAL DEPARTMENT TO CREATE A FREE LARGE-SCALE BLOCK PARTY TO CELEBRATE THE NEW WHITNEY WITH ITS NEIGHBORS AND COMMUNITY. A DIVERSE GROUP OF ARTISTS AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS CREATED INTERACTIVE INSTALLATIONS, ACTIVITIES, AND WORKSHOPS. ADDITIONALLY, A FULL PROGRAM OF PERFORMANCES TOOK PLACE ON A MAIN STAGE WHERE WE FEATURED ARTIST AND COMMUNITY GROUPS ALIKE. MORE THAN 10,000 PEOPLE ATTENDED THE OPENING BLOCK PARTY. TO CONTINUE THE CELEBRATION THROUGHOUT THE FIRST FOUR MONTHS AFTER OPENING, THE DEPARTMENT ORGANIZED A PUBLIC PROGRAM, 99 OBJECTS, FOR THE FIRST 99 DAYS AFTER OPENING. NAMED IN HONOR OF THE WHITNEY'S NEW ADDRESS, 99 GANSEVOORT STREET, 99 OBJECTS WAS A SERIES OF IN-GALLERY PROGRAMS FOCUSED ON 99 DIFFERENT WORKS OF ART FROM THE MUSEUM'S COLLECTION ON VIEW IN AMERICA IS HARD TO SEE. SPEAKERS INCLUDED ARTISTS, WRITERS, WHITNEY CURATORS, AND EDUCATORS, AND AN INTERDISCIPLINARY GROUP OF SCHOLARS. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT WHITNEY EDUCATION, PLEASE VISIT WHITNEY.ORG/EDUCATION.
