I N M E M O R I A M2

January 7, 1938 – April 11, 2014

Born January 7, 1938 in Chicago, Illinois, Elliott Ranney Donnelley died Friday, April 11, 2014. The great-grandson of the founder of R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company, he was an avid outdoorsman, innovator and collector.

Throughout his life, Elliott traveled to many parts of the world, nurturing a deep interest in wildlife conservation. He generously supported organizations such as Ducks Unlimited, Tall Timbers and The Wild Turkey Federation.

Moving to South Florida in the 1960s, he founded Lantana Boat Yard, Inc., which, in addition to commercial vessels and yachts, made hydrofoils from aluminum alloy. Though he built high-tech boating materials, one of his favorite projects was designing and building a

low-tech, weed-cutting vessel (the “cookie cutter”) for restoring wetlands.

Elliott spent a lifetime collecting model trains, guns and cars. He was passionate about the Model A, the car in which he learned to drive. His belief that the Model A could show American ingenuity at its best inspired him to collect more than fifty different vehicles. Begun in 1968, his collection represents the single largest assemblage of vintage commercial vehicles in the world. He wished to preserve his vehicles so that future generations might learn these stories. In 2013, he donated his entire collection to the Elliott Museum in Stuart, Florida, realizing this dream.

Elliott Donnelley is survived by his daughter, Shawn Donnelley (Christopher Kelly), and son Angus Donnelley, as well as his sister Laura Donnelley, sister-in-law Vivian Donnelley, and nine nieces and nephews.

Dear Friends of the Elliott:

Earlier this year I stood on the second floor of the Museum, overlooking the Stuart Main Street Gallery – and what a view it was. Kids were piling in and out of Rusty the Bus, guests were lined up to choose their car from our robotic car racking system, and I looked over at Peter Freudenberg’s polychrome sculpture at the front of the Museum and I was struck, again, by its title, “Let Your Mind Soar.” How appropriate for the Elliott and what we aim to deliver to the community.

This has been an extremely exciting year at the Elliott Museum. We’ve been to an archeological dig with the exhibition Dugout Canoes: Paddling Across the Americas, we delved into local art, history, and technology with our Summer Lecture series, we even mapped the human genome with the exhibit GENOME: The Secret of How Life Works. We’ve introduced visitors to sights as old as a 500-year-old canoe, and to ideas as modern as the next big genetic breakthrough. Our Studio programming has allowed students to explore their muse with hands-on experiences. What brings it all together, though, are our visitors. The visitor experience is at the heart of our work. Does it educate? Does it entertain? Does it challenge? These are the criteria through which we use to evaluate our programs and exhibits. Now more than ever, we are dedicated to not only preserving and interpreting our collective heritage, but also to presenting it in a fresh and interesting way to locals and visitors alike.

And while our history is vast and rich, it is our future that requires the most attention. We have spent this last year seeking effective ways to drive up revenue while working nimbly to economize at every turn while remaining true to our mission to serve visitors with first-rate exhibitions and programs. It takes partners, it takes volunteers, and it take donors to make our work possible. As an institution, we see our history spread out behind us and our future stretching out ahead. I am truly excited to be standing on the metaphorical edge between what has been and what is yet to be. Thank you for standing here with me. Enjoy the view.

Jennifer Esler President and CEO

Albers and Heirs: Josef Albers, Neil Welliver, and Jane Davis Doggett

November 9, 2013 - February 3, 2014

The Albers and Heirs exhibit explored the language of color through the work of three artists: Josef Albers, Neil Welliver, and Jane Davis Doggett. Joseph Albers, a pioneer of twentieth century modernism, was an artist, and an educator. He took the study of color to a new level, seeking “to make open the eyes.” In the exhibit, a number of Albers’ prints were on display, as well as the work of two of his students: Neil Welliver and Jane Davis Doggett. Welliver and Doggett

mastered Albers’ discipline of the interaction of color, but made it, in decidedly different ways, central to their work. Specially curated by Osvaldo Monzon for its debut at the Elliott, the show moved on to the University of Maine, Orono Campus.

The Guayabera: A Shirt’s Story

Cultural icon, fashion statement and symbol of the tropics: The Guayabera: A Shirt’s Story exhibit, on loan from History Miami, told the fascinating story of one of the most storied and recognizable pieces of fashion history in Latin America. Known for

its functionality and style, the guayabera shirt’s most identifiable characteristics are its four pockets and two vertical stripes of decorative pleating and embroidery.

The Spark – Three Generations of Inspiration: John Calderwood Whorf, Nancy Whorf, Julia Whorf Kelly

Also debuting at the Elliott this spring was a new exhibit featuring the work of three generations of the Whorf family (grandfather John Calderwood Whorf, mother Nancy Whorf, and daughter Julia Whorf Kelly) who explored the “spark” of artistic inspiration and the evolution of the creative process. The three artists,

distinctively different in style and execution, have in common their process of capturing a moment in time first as a “key,” or short sketch, and later as a painting. This exhibit presented some original pencil sketches alongside finished pieces, revealing the process of creating art.

Dugout Canoes: Paddling Through the Americas

Dugout Canoes: Paddling Through the Americas

This object-rich and interactive exhibition produced by the Florida Museum of Natural History and underwritten in part by a grant from the Florida Humanities Council, featured American dugouts from ancient times to present. Visitors discovered how dugout canoes affected life and travel throughout the Americas and explored Florida’s largest archaeological find – one hundred and one ancient dugouts discovered in a dry lake bed in Florida. The exhibit featured more than one hundred unique objects,

including an ancient Florida canoe, a contemporary dugout from the Pacific Northwest, canoe paddles and model canoes from across the Americas, fishing equipment, canoe-making tools and more.

Genome: The Secret of How Life Works

This 5,000-square-foot interactive exhibition explores the mysteries of the human gene, why the genome is being mapped, and the potential benefits of gene research (i.e., preventing and curing diseases, living longer, solving crimes, producing better food and drugs). GENOME uses interactive

displays, visually rich environments and family-friendly activities that are specifically designed to help visitors understand the genome’s function and its role in daily life. GENOME was made possible by Pfizer Inc. and was produced by Evergreen Exhibitions in collaboration with the National Human Research Institute (NHGRI), a division of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Whitehead Institute/MIT Center for Genome Research. The exhibit was sponsored locally by VGTI, Publix Super Markets Charities, and Martin Memorial Health Systems.

Exhibit Planning

The Board of Directors and staff of the Elliott Museum spend considerable time each year planning exhibits and programs that delight, inform, entertain and challenge. Exhibit planning for both our traveling and permanent exhibits is a delicate process of blending ideas and available resources while providing new guests and our family of Members an exciting array of programs and exhibits.

Permanent ExhibitsOur Stories: Treasure Coast History

Selections from the Elliott’s permanent collection were gathered and installed in a new permanent exhibit on the second floor called Our Stories. Featuring artifacts from the old Museum’s General Store to Frances Langford’s Gowns, this exhibit celebrates the life and times of Martin County from its early founding days through the present. With something for everyone, from Langford fans to archaeologists, the exhibit even allows visitors to relive the November 2000 Presidential Election in two different Martin

County voting booths. Through paintings by James

Hutchinson and Curt Whiticar, the lives of the Seminoles

and early settlers are explored. While there is more work to be done to interpret and tell the many stories represented by the Elliott’s vast collection, Our Stories represents a substantial first step in the telling of Treasure Coast history.

Wyatt’s Circus Parade

In 2014, Kurt Spence, an Elliott Museum Volunteer and model circus maker

himself, spent hours cleaning and restoring pieces of the Elliott Museum’s beloved handmade circus and circus parade. In early May the circus parade made its return to the Elliott in a new display on the second floor. The 1/16th scale model circus parade was hand-crafted by George Robert “Bob” Wyatt (1900-1956) in Dover, New Hampshire. From 1880 to 1920, in towns across America, the arrival of the circus was celebrated with a street parade. Circus street parades often had similar elements including a front leading wagon, horse-drawn wagons

featuring carved scenery, wagons that held bands, and caged animal wagons. In fact, Americans would judge how good a circus was going to be by the quality of its parade. In 1920, Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Combined Circus dubbed “The Greatest Show on Earth,” discontinued its street parade citing the rise of the automobile and traffic signals as the reason. With over 300 hand-carved pieces in Wyatt’s Circus, this street parade foretells the arrival of a true gem in the Museum’s permanent collection.

Curators and Cocktails:

In the Fall of 2013, Associate Car Curator, John Giltinan, introduced a new public program designed to place objects from the Elliott Museum’s permanent collection in cultural and historical context. Towards that end, he developed a series of programs called Curators and Cocktails. Generously sponsored by Water Pointe Realty, the first five lectures were held amongst the cars in the collection to provide an intimate behind-the-scenes experience for Museum Members and guests. Due to its popularity, the program has been continued for 2015.

Electric Automobile: New and Old

In January 2014, the Elliott Museum celebrated the 100th Birthday of our 1914 Detroit Electric with a special short-term exhibition, The Art of the Electric Automobile: New and Old. Featuring the all electric Tesla, on loan from Board Member Steven Swann, Tesla representatives were on hand to talk about this modern version of our Detroit Electric. Finishing off

the celebration was a lecture on the History of the Electric Auto by Elliott Museum Education Coordinator, Al Simbritz. “The fascinating history of the electric powered automobile in the United States is filled with drama and suspense: the ups and downs, hits and misses, successes and failures,” stated Mr. Simbritz.

18th Annual Classics at the Beach Car Show

Held in April 2014, the 18th Annual Classics at the Beach Car Show drew over 2000 guests who were on hand to discover a full field of rare and unique cars on display. Chaired by Rachelle “Rocky” Grady, the Best in Show Award was presented to Barbara and Ed Joyce of

Port St. Lucie, FL for their 1928 Graham Brothers Canopy Express Truck. The Elliott Award was presented to Bill Spurling of Stuart, FL for his 1953 Cadillac El Dorado Convertible. The People’s Choice Award was presented to Mr. and Mrs. Barry Paraizo of North Palm Beach, FL for their

1931 Packard Model 833 Convertible. Special thanks to our wonderful sponsors: Blue Marlin Motors, Auctions America, Bullen Insurance Group, Searle & Associates, FP&L, Cavallino Magazine, Autogeek.net, Hemmings, Strategic Retirement Group, Wallace Automotive Group and Leighton Security.

Volunteers provide a vital link that helps bring the Elliott Museum alive for over 65,000 annual visitors. In fact, volunteers form an essential part of our staff. Whether working in the Garage, on the floor with our guests, or behind the scenes, our volunteers make an inimitable contribution to the Museum’s ability to meet its mission. Each year, over 150 volunteers contribute 16,000 hours to the Museum. Their commitment greatly enhances the Museum’s mission of providing high-value experiences to the community. We truly value each of our volunteers.

12The Elliott Museum’s mission is to inspire creativity through exhibitions and programs about art, history and technology for the people who live in and visit the Treasure Coast, Florida. In pursuit of this mission, the Museum launched an annual giving program called the Circle of Friends for patrons contributing $500 or more. The Circle of Friends, people who have remembered the Museum in their will or estate plans, and other donors listed on the next page play a major role in the Museum’s vision to become one of the most relevant and revered museums in the region.
