Established several years ago, The Farnsworth Forum is an annual lecture series that arranges for America's leading public intellectuals to speak in Rockland. In the summer, the Director of the Metropolitan Opera Peter Gelb spoke on the current state of opera in New York and around the globe. In the fall, art historian and author of the major publication, "American Encounters: Art, History, and Cultural Identity" Angela Miller gave her view of the future of American and global art.As well as conducting the always-popular Achieving American Art in the spring, the Education Department organized two, three-part lecture series in the fall. "American Picturesque" focused on our country's landscape culture in the mid-nineteenth century and drew a large audience in the Farnsworth auditorium. "On Beauty & Beyond" examined the concept of beauty as represented in world art and was conducted in The Strand Theatre.The Education Department expanded its offering for youth and adults throughout 2010. The variety of art-making classes can be seen in the following list of selections: linoleum block printing, mixed media portraiture, gouache painting, figure drawing, encaustic workshop, and Japanese style printmaking.The Education Department continued and strengthened various and sundry partnerships, including those with The Strand Theatre, Camden Conference, Peche Kucha, Maine Media Workshops and the surrounding public school districts. The major partnership established in 2010 was the strategic alliance with Lincoln Center Institute, New York. Lincoln Center Institute is the education arm of Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, Inc., the best-known and largest cultural institution in the world. Going forward, for one week in July, the Farnsworth will team up with Lincoln Center Institute to offer teachers form around the country a fully accredited workshop in aesthetic education.Julia's Gallery for Young Artists broke new artistic ground with the production of "The Roaring 20s." Julia's Gallery middle and high school students wrote, created the sets, handled the lighting and filming, and acted in a music video on the 1920s. The entire video was shot on a HD i-Phone and presented before over 300 people in The Strand Theatre in November. 2788407 true true false false false false false true false true true true false false false false true false false false false false false false true false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false true true false false false false false false false false true 39 0 true 92 true false false false false false false false false true true false 0 false false false false false false false false false false false X 25 25 true false false false false false false true true false false false true true true true true true true true false false X X CATHY KNOWLES 2045696457 356 MAIN STREET ROCKLAND ME 04841 VICTORIA GOLDSTEIN 1.00 X X 0 0 0 TINA PYNE 1.00 X 0 0 0 SUSAN DEUTSCH 1.00 X 0 0 0 ROBERT ROTHSCHILD 1.00 X 0 0 0 RICHARD ARONEAU 1.00 X X 0 0 0 PETER MCSPADDEN 1.00 X 0 0 0 MAZIE COX 1.00 X 0 0 0 MARY COLLINS 1.00 X 0 0 0 MABEL CABOT 1.00 X 0 0 0 KENNETH SHURE 1.00 X 0 0 0 JOHN ROSENBLUM 1.00 X X 0 0 0 JOHN BIRD 1.00 X 0 0 0 JEAN KISLAK 1.00 X 0 0 0 GAIL BERTUZZI 1.00 X 0 0 0 FREDERIC KELLOGG 1.00 X 0 0 0 EMILY ROWAN 1.00 X 0 0 0 DOUG ROWAN 1.00 X 0 0 0 DEBBIE CHATFIELD 1.00 X 0 0 0 DAVID HOPKINS 1.00 X 0 0 0 CHRISTOPHER BROWNAWELL 40.00 X X 182789 0 0 CHRIS AMANN 16.00 X 44134 0 0 CHARLOTTE BEEBE 1.00 X 0 0 0 CHARLES ALTSCHUL 1.00 X 0 0 0 BETSY KUNKLE 1.00 X 0 0 0 AMY MOREY 1.00 X 0 0 0 226923 1 false true false 0 150073 5029574 1500510 6680157 FEES FOR ART CLASSES 900099 36033 36033 ADMISSIONS 900099 393883 393883 429916 370116 -3603 373719 0 2927 2927 82400 83488 -1088 -1088 -1088 0 225680 5029574 171601 54079 0 545811 294829 250982 250982 Other revenue 900099 15446 15446 Exhibition/Photo fees 900099 71809 71809 87255 7874344 822232 -3603 375558 0 0 0 0 226923 226923 0 1222624 1008882 5684 208058 0 165699 116364 28772 20563 105187 73869 18264 13054 0 6020 6020 23639 23639 0 0 0 6311 1600 3831 880 53581 51271 670 1640 0 0 0 243670 220811 16968 5891 84890 71041 13539 310 0 0 54945 54945 0 481022 425437 23031 32554 85466 81197 3169 1100 Supplies and Materials 60056 53233 3876 2947 OTHER EXPENSES 59997 46581 -1434 14850 Maintenance 108903 96602 10017 2284 EXHIBITS 165988 165988 CONTRACT LABOR 124864 69717 55147 418647 305814 51613 61220 3698432 2788407 489527 420498 95287 248090 58159 43343 384617 980477 52863 954828 0 0 0 190204 200841 13820 0 15345776 6255256 9461006 9090520 3534418 6952295 6900301 7258845 0 0 654913 618363 21345588 26347602 346449 291463 43885 41100 1640302 1950957 2030636 2283520 X 9541147 8836005 1134910 1331043 8638895 13897034 19314952 24064082 21345588 26347602 X 4175912 573218 X X false true true X false false X 1459692 2183842 1070846 1444867 6680157 12839404 0 0 1459692 2183842 1070846 1444867 6680157 12839404 4410605 8428799 374344 409804 45806 518222 400648 1748824 -1414 -3603 -5017 0 14583211 4104506 0.57800 0.63730 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED X X X X false 10340184 3486691 934399 648520 14112754 9249234 98150 1492132 499332 10340184 11464358 94563 -2020109 289578 9249234 0.13000 0.87000 true false false 1739954 1739954 12167799 5330349 6837450 1214627 743817 470810 223396 181090 42306 9090520 7258845 7874344 3698432 4175912 262779 310439 573218 4749130 8933451 262779 18441 310439 591659 8341792 -467448 -467448 7874344 4184321 18441 467448 485889 3698432 3698432 Part XIII, Line 2d Part XIII, Line 2d: Other expenses and losses per audited F/S COST OF SALES $294829 SPECIAL EVENTS EXPENSES $89131 RENTAL EXPENSES $83488 Part XII, Line 2d Part XII, Line 2d: Other revenue amounts included in F/S but not included on form 990 CHANGE IN BENEFICIAL INTEREST $310439 Part XI, Line 8 Part XI, Line 8: Other Changes in Net Assets or Fund Balances change in value of beneficial interest $310439 Part V, Line 4 Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund.
