I recently returned from a Collections Committee trip to Boston where we visited the Museum of Fine Arts’ (MFA) new Art of the Americas wing and heard about the extensive planning and vision of the museum staff who were given the task of setting the stage for a celebration of the MFA’s masterworks and cultural treasures to tell a most complete story of American art. Starting with the most historic cultures that inhabited Central America and moving through the early colonization and later establishment of the United States, the new wing reflects the many different peoples and
cultures that make up what is the Americas and the relatively short time any group or individual is present to make a lasting contribution in this vast land.
On a smaller scale but with no less seriousness, the Columbus Museum team has spent the last eight months studying, interviewing, listening and responding to its many constituents as a vision is developed for the Museum’s next decade. Out of these many voices it was determined to speak to the Museum’s strengths in American art and regional history, but to consciously expand the conversation so that all voices are heard and our curatorial interpretation of history has the advantage of recognizing how national and international events have shaped our local region as well as our nation. How this will be done is the future challenge for the staff and board governance of the Columbus Museum. It will also provide an opportunity for new leadership to be part of the grand scheme and direction of future growth for this institution.
After having the honor and the responsibility of navigating the course of the Columbus Museum for the past 20 years, I am retiring and setting forth on my next life adventure. When I arrived in the spring of 1994, Columbus was at the onset of a renaissance that has resulted in the vibrant and promising city it has become today. The Museum, then in a relatively new facility, was primed to move forward after the first truly successful public-private fundraising partnership. In these intervening years and through the efforts of many different people, the Museum has become a significant cultural asset for the local community, region, and nation. Our facility is an important educational resource and venue through the use of modern technologies. Our programs engage the entire community in both content and participation. In my opinion, the Museum continues to be the Muscogee County School District’s largest classroom, and we value the now 61 year-old partnership. Our generous patrons and friends have continued to make gifts to insure that the Museum’s fiscal health remains strong. Our collections have grown measurably and speak to the remarkable advancement of the role of the cultural arts and regional history as a strong measure of the quality of life in our growing community. Moreover, the innumerable achievements of this Museum since its establishment more than 60 years ago provide a solid groundwork for even greater opportunities in the future.
I have agreed to stay on as Director until the Trustees' Search Committee has appointed my successor. In the meantime, we have lots to do: audiences to reach and engage; financial goals to meet to ensure our long term stability and future growth; and facility enhancements to properly utilize and protect the great cultural treasures that have been entrusted to the Museum for the edification of all of us as well as future generations. I implore all of you to continue to assist the Columbus Museum through your membership, patronage and participation to progress into the outstanding cultural resource we have envisioned together.
From the Director
People have long collected curious items to displayas proof of their knowledge and to help them remember the past. Memory's Cabinets will present dozens of unusual and seldom-seen gadgets, contraptions, and machines from the Museum’s permanent collection. They will be displayed in the aesthetic tradition of “cabinets of wonder,” densely placed in cases and cleverly arranged. The objects will be grouped thematically by the type of people who might have used the objects, including:
• The Physician, who ministers to the sick and wounded
• The Cure-All Purveyor, who plies potions and capsules to heal all manner of ailments
• The Clothier, who prepares embellishments and garments
• The Munitions Man, a gun enthusiast
• The Clerk, who keeps records, attends to correspondence, and files paperwork
• The Contriver, who measures and builds
• The Broadcaster, who speaks, performs, or presents on the radio and television
• The Image Catcher, who produces pictures by using cameras
The technology of everyday objects has changed over time, some more than others. A number of the items on display will still be recognizable to visitors today, and many will seem more peculiar. Memory's Cabinets will provide opportunities for visitors to create their own stories about the objects, which will be featured on labels that change throughout the run of the exhibition.
This exhibition is made possible by the generous funding from the Landrum Educational Endowment Fund.

In the exhibition Leaving Mississippi – Reflections on Heroes and Folklore, Najee Dorsey’s Mississippi Delta roots emerge as he pays homage to a cast of colorful characters, historic events, and conditions of Southern life while creating commentary about current economic and social conditions in America.
The mixed-media works in the exhibition will showcase a number of the unsung heroes of the Civil Rights Movements, participants of civil disobedience in the early 20th century, and folklore legends including Robert Charles, Bass Reeves Lawman, and Dangerfield Newby. Dorsey is currently producing a work specifically for the exhibition that will portray the life of a historic figure from Columbus.
The artist uses a variety of materials, including photographic imagery, ripped paper, paint, and found objects. Each composition blends multiple textures, colors, and layers to make the stories tangible for viewers.
Born and raised in the Delta and now a resident of Columbus, Georgia, Dorsey has shown his work in numerous solo and group exhibitions. He has been the recipient of awards that include a 2006 Patrons Purchase Award from the Polk Museum of Art. His work can be found in the collections of the Charles H. Wright Museum, Syracuse University to the African American Museum in Dallas, TX; the Marietta Museum of Art and Whimsy in Sarasota, FL; and Liberty Bank and Trust Company in New Orleans, LA. In 2010, Dorsey created the website Black Art in America (BAIA), now the leading global social network and resource for African-American visual artists, collectors, industry leaders, and arts enthusiasts.

HISTORY ACQUISITION1861 COLUMBUS GUARDS RED JACKET
The Columbus Museum is proud to announce the acquisition of a Columbus Guards uniform coat. This “Red Jacket,” worn by Watkins Banks at the beginning of the Civil War, is the only such jacket known to still exist from the local militia unit that included some of the most influential members of Columbus society. The Columbus Guards formed in 1835 and served in the Second Creek War, the Mexican War, the Spanish-American War, and World War I. However, the unit is best known for its service during the Civil War, when it provided more men for Confederate service than any other Columbus militia unit and participated in more than 30 battles as part of the Army of Northern Virginia. Recognized amongst the best-drilled companies in the South, the Columbus Guards served as an honor guard for Jefferson Davis’ inauguration as president of the Confederate States of America in February 1861.
Banks grew up at The Cedars in the Wynnton area, attending Wynnton School when it was an all-male academy. He never married
and was buried in Linwood Cemetery after his death in the Atlanta
campaign in 1864. Banks wore this jacket at
Davis’ inauguration in Montgomery,
Alabama, and also during
the Guards’ departure from Columbus to join the Confederate army. Banks identified his jacket by writing “Wat. Banks” and “1861” on the coat’s interior lining, notations which are still clearly visible. The coat remained in his family’s possession until 2012 when John Sheftall, Banks’ great-great-great nephew, offered the jacket to the Museum.
The coat is completely handmade of red and undyed wool joined with fine silk stitching. Its quilted cotton lining was shaped with horsehair stuffing to give the wearer a smooth, trim silhouette. After acquisition, the Museum sent the jacket to the Williamstown Art Conservation Center in Massachusetts for stabilization and restoration. This process included the insertion of a red cotton interlayer to disguise losses in the original red wool, as well as the casting of replacement buttons. Six original buttons survived with the coat, while the rest were likely cut away as mementos for Banks’ family after his death. New buttons were cast in epoxy and painted to look like the brass originals. Featuring the letters “CG” and an eagle, the Columbus Guards buttons have drawn scholarly interest, as they have never been identified on any other militia or federal uniform, despite extensive research on historic buttons.
The Museum has previously exhibited this unique coat twice, most recently in the 2011 exhibition 150 Years Later: Our Civil War and its Legacy. The influence of the Columbus Guards “Red Jacket” can be felt throughout the city, serving as the namesake of a Civil War-era cannon, the Jordan Vocational High School mascot, and an ale on tap at the Cannon Brew Pub. The Museum is honored to be the permanent home of this iconic piece of Columbus history.
