FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4A	BILLY MAYER: THE SHAPE OF THINGS ONE OF MICHIGANS MOST DISTINCTIVE AND UNIQUE SCULPTORS, THE LATE BILLY MAYER (1953 2017) CREATED WORK IN NUMEROUS MEDIA AND MATERIALS THAT ADDRESSED THE MUNDANE ELEMENTS OF DAILY LIFE AS WELL AS BIGGER, BROADER IDEAS ABOUT HUMAN EXISTENCE. BILLY MAYER: THE SHAPE OF THINGS BRINGS TOGETHER BOTH LARGE AND SMALL-SCALE SCULPTURE THAT DEMONSTRATE MAYERS CREATIVE IMAGINATION AND HIS IMPRESSIVE RANGE OF INTERESTS AND SOURCES, FROM SURREALISM AND POP ART TO SOUVENIR KITSCH. MAYERS METICULOUSLY CRAFTED SCULPTURES JUXTAPOSE FAMILIAR ELEMENTS IN UNEXPECTED ARRANGEMENTS THAT SEEM CONJURED FROM A PARALLEL REALITY OR DREAM STATE. ANCHORING THE EXHIBITION IS MAYER'S TOUR-DE-FORCE INSTALLATION OF OVER FOUR HUNDRED SMALL SKULLS, EACH TOPPED WITH A DIFFERENT EVERYDAY IMAGE OR OBJECT - ALL HANDCRAFTED IN CLAY. IN ITS TOTALITY, IMBUES ITS RANGE OF BANAL OBJECTS AND IMAGES WITH PERSONAL MEANING, CREATING A SELF- PORTRAIT, IN A SENSE, OF THE ARTIST'S THOUGHTS AND MEMORIES.
FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4B	DAVID WIESNER & THE ART OF WORDLESS STORYTELLING DAVID WIESNER (B. 1956) IS A MASTER OF STORYTELLING THROUGH PICTURES AND THREE-TIME WINNER OF THE CALDECOTT MEDAL. WIESNER'S BODY OF WORK EXPLORES THE COMPLEXITY OF HUMAN IMAGINATION THROUGH RICHLY LAYERED IMAGERY, CLEVER COMPOSITION, AND HUMOR. HIS MANY BOOKS HAVE DELIGHTED READERS OF ALL AGES FOR THREE DECADES WITH WILDLY IMAGINATIVE TALES THAT CAPTURE THE JOY OF PICTURES AND STORIES. THE EXHIBITION FEATURES 70 ORIGINAL WATERCOLORS FROM SOME OF WIESNER'S MOST BELOVED BOOKS, INCLUDING THE CALDECOTT MEDAL WINNERS TUESDAY (1991), THE THREE PIGS (2001), AND FLOTSAM (2006). EXAMPLES OF WIESNER'S EARLIEST ARTISTIC SUCCESSES ARE ON VIEW, TOO, AS WELL AS SKETCHES AND NOTEBOOKS REVEALING HIS TIME-CONSUMING CREATIVE PROCESS, WHICH CULMINATES IN THE ENCHANTING WATERCOLOR PAINTINGS THAT ANCHOR THE EXHIBITION. BECAUSE THESE ORIGINAL WORKS ARE RARELY SEEN, THE METICULOUS PROCESSES THROUGH WHICH WIESNER ACHIEVES HIS SEEMINGLY EFFORTLESS EFFECTS ARE RARELY APPREHENDED. VIEWING THESE WORKS IN PERSON, AS OPPOSED TO THEIR REPRODUCTIONS IN BOOKS, REVEALS THE MULTIPLE LAYERS OF WATERCOLOR THAT WIESNER USES TO CREATE THE EXQUISITELY NUANCED HUES THAT BRING EACH PIECE TO LIFE. WIESNER BEGAN HIS CAREER PROVIDING ILLUSTRATIONS FOR THE CHILDREN'S LITERARY MAGAZINE CRICKET IN 1979 AND THEN UNDERTOOK A SERIES OF COLLABORATIONS WITH CHILDREN'S BOOK AUTHORS THROUGHOUT THE 1980S. FREE FALL (1988), WIESNER'S FIRST SOLO WORK AND HIS FIRST PUBLISHED WORDLESS BOOK, TOOK HIM THREE YEARS TO COMPLETE. IT'S STORY, WHICH IMAGINES A BOY'S SLEEPING DREAMSCAPES, IS CONTAINED WITHIN ONE LONG, CONTINUOUS COMPOSITION THAT MORPHS FROM ONE SCENE TO THE NEXT. AFTER IT WAS CHOSEN AS A CALDECOTT HONOR BOOK IN 1988, WIESNER DETERMINED FROM THEN ON TO FOCUS EXCLUSIVELY ON HIS OWN VISUAL STORYTELLING. IN THE WORKS THAT CAME AFTER, INCLUDING JUNE 29, 1999 (1992) AND SECTOR 7 (1999), HE CONTINUED TO EXPLORE VISUAL STORYTELLING, OFTEN REMOVING TEXT AND THUS REMOVING THE AUTHOR'S VOICE. WIESNER SAYS, "THIS LETS EACH READER TELL THE STORY IN THEIR OWN VOICE. IT PUTS READERS IN THE POSITION OF COLLABORATING IN THE STORYTELLING PROCESS, ASKING THEM TO USE THEIR IMAGINATION ALONG WITH MINE." HE HOPES VIEWERS WILL ACTIVELY ENGAGE WITH HIS WORK, MAKING CONNECTIONS AND CREATING THEIR OWN MEANING, AN ENGAGEMENT THAT IS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT FOR YOUNG CHILDREN, WHO DEVELOP VISUAL LITERACY WELL BEFORE THEY ARE ABLE TO READ. WIESNER'S WORDLESS NARRATIVES DEMAND ATTENTION AND DEDUCTION FROM THEIR READERS AND ENCOURAGE EXPRESSIVE LANGUAGE AND PREDICTIVE REASONING SKILLS. ACTIVITIES WITHIN THE EXHIBITION FOR CHILDREN, FAMILIES, AND ADULTS HAVE BEEN CREATED TO FURTHER INSPIRE THESE SKILLS AND CREATE FUN EXPERIENCES FOR VISITORS OF ALL AGES.
FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4C	A NEW STATE OF MATTER: CONTEMPORARY GLASS GLASS HAS BEEN CALLED A NEW STATE OF MATTER BECAUSE IT IS NOT PURELY A LIQUID, SOLID, OR GAS. GLASS CAN TRANSITION FROM A LIQUID TO A SOLID OVER A WIDE TEMPERATURE RANGE, CAUSING IT TO BE NICKNAMED "CHAMELEON MATTER". THIS QUALITY MAKES IT AN IDEAL MEDIUM FOR A WIDE ARRAY OF PROCESSES INCLUDING BLOWING, KILN-FORMING, CASTING, AND FLAME-WORKING. GLASS CAN BE TRANSLUCENT, TRANSPARENT, OR OPAQUE; IT CAN REFRACT IMAGES OR REFLECT THEM BACK TO THE VIEWER; IT IS STRONG, YET DELICATE. THESE QUALITIES MAKE GLASS PERFECTLY SUITED FOR ARTISTS TO EXPLORE FRAGILITY, RESILIENCY, TRANSPARENCY, AND TRANSFORMATION. THIS EXHIBITION FEATURES WORK BY CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS WHO ARE USING GLASS IN INNOVATIVE WAYS, WHILE PRESENTING ITS METAPHORICAL POSSIBILITIES. THEIR ARTWORKS ALSO CONNECT TO BROADER CULTURAL, ENVIRONMENTAL, POLITICAL, AND SPIRITUAL THEMES. EACH OF THE NINETEEN ARTISTS INCLUDED IN THE EXHIBITION EXAMINES THE MATERIAL AND SYMBOLIC POTENTIAL OF GLASS IN UNIQUE AND REVEALING WAYS. FOR EXAMPLE, ARTISTS CHARLOTTE POTTER AND APRIL SURGENT USE THE ANCIENT PROCESS OF CAMEO GLASS ENGRAVING TO EXPLORE RELATIONSHIPS IN THE AGE OF SOCIAL MEDIA AND CLIMATE CHANGE, RESPECTIVELY.

	BILLY MAYER: THE SHAPE OF THINGS ONE OF MICHIGANS MOST DISTINCTIVE AND UNIQUE SCULPTORS, THE LATE BILLY MAYER (1953 2017) CREATED WORK IN NUMEROUS MEDIA AND MATERIALS THAT ADDRESSED THE MUNDANE ELEMENTS OF DAILY LIFE AS WELL AS BIGGER, BROADER IDEAS ABOUT HUMAN EXISTENCE. BILLY MAYER: THE SHAPE OF THINGS BRINGS TOGETHER BOTH LARGE AND SMALL-SCALE SCULPTURE THAT DEMONSTRATE MAYERS CREATIVE IMAGINATION AND HIS IMPRESSIVE RANGE OF INTERESTS AND SOURCES, FROM SURREALISM AND POP ART TO SOUVENIR KITSCH. MAYERS METICULOUSLY CRAFTED SCULPTURES JUXTAPOSE FAMILIAR ELEMENTS IN UNEXPECTED ARRANGEMENTS THAT SEEM CONJURED FROM A PARALLEL REALITY OR DREAM STATE. ANCHORING THE EXHIBITION IS MAYER'S TOUR-DE-FORCE INSTALLATION OF OVER FOUR HUNDRED SMALL SKULLS, EACH TOPPED WITH A DIFFERENT EVERYDAY IMAGE OR OBJECT - ALL HANDCRAFTED IN CLAY. IN ITS TOTALITY, IMBUES ITS RANGE OF BANAL OBJECTS AND IMAGES WITH PERSONAL MEANING, CREATING A SELF- PORTRAIT, IN A SENSE, OF THE ARTIST'S THOUGHTS AND MEMORIES.

	DAVID WIESNER & THE ART OF WORDLESS STORYTELLING DAVID WIESNER (B. 1956) IS A MASTER OF STORYTELLING THROUGH PICTURES AND THREE-TIME WINNER OF THE CALDECOTT MEDAL. WIESNER'S BODY OF WORK EXPLORES THE COMPLEXITY OF HUMAN IMAGINATION THROUGH RICHLY LAYERED IMAGERY, CLEVER COMPOSITION, AND HUMOR. HIS MANY BOOKS HAVE DELIGHTED READERS OF ALL AGES FOR THREE DECADES WITH WILDLY IMAGINATIVE TALES THAT CAPTURE THE JOY OF PICTURES AND STORIES. THE EXHIBITION FEATURES 70 ORIGINAL WATERCOLORS FROM SOME OF WIESNER'S MOST BELOVED BOOKS, INCLUDING THE CALDECOTT MEDAL WINNERS TUESDAY (1991), THE THREE PIGS (2001), AND FLOTSAM (2006). EXAMPLES OF WIESNER'S EARLIEST ARTISTIC SUCCESSES ARE ON VIEW, TOO, AS WELL AS SKETCHES AND NOTEBOOKS REVEALING HIS TIME-CONSUMING CREATIVE PROCESS, WHICH CULMINATES IN THE ENCHANTING WATERCOLOR PAINTINGS THAT ANCHOR THE EXHIBITION. BECAUSE THESE ORIGINAL WORKS ARE RARELY SEEN, THE METICULOUS PROCESSES THROUGH WHICH WIESNER ACHIEVES HIS SEEMINGLY EFFORTLESS EFFECTS ARE RARELY APPREHENDED. VIEWING THESE WORKS IN PERSON, AS OPPOSED TO THEIR REPRODUCTIONS IN BOOKS, REVEALS THE MULTIPLE LAYERS OF WATERCOLOR THAT WIESNER USES TO CREATE THE EXQUISITELY NUANCED HUES THAT BRING EACH PIECE TO LIFE. WIESNER BEGAN HIS CAREER PROVIDING ILLUSTRATIONS FOR THE CHILDREN'S LITERARY MAGAZINE CRICKET IN 1979 AND THEN UNDERTOOK A SERIES OF COLLABORATIONS WITH CHILDREN'S BOOK AUTHORS THROUGHOUT THE 1980S. FREE FALL (1988), WIESNER'S FIRST SOLO WORK AND HIS FIRST PUBLISHED WORDLESS BOOK, TOOK HIM THREE YEARS TO COMPLETE. IT'S STORY, WHICH IMAGINES A BOY'S SLEEPING DREAMSCAPES, IS CONTAINED WITHIN ONE LONG, CONTINUOUS COMPOSITION THAT MORPHS FROM ONE SCENE TO THE NEXT. AFTER IT WAS CHOSEN AS A CALDECOTT HONOR BOOK IN 1988, WIESNER DETERMINED FROM THEN ON TO FOCUS EXCLUSIVELY ON HIS OWN VISUAL STORYTELLING. IN THE WORKS THAT CAME AFTER, INCLUDING JUNE 29, 1999 (1992) AND SECTOR 7 (1999), HE CONTINUED TO EXPLORE VISUAL STORYTELLING, OFTEN REMOVING TEXT AND THUS REMOVING THE AUTHOR'S VOICE. WIESNER SAYS, "THIS LETS EACH READER TELL THE STORY IN THEIR OWN VOICE. IT PUTS READERS IN THE POSITION OF COLLABORATING IN THE STORYTELLING PROCESS, ASKING THEM TO USE THEIR IMAGINATION ALONG WITH MINE." HE HOPES VIEWERS WILL ACTIVELY ENGAGE WITH HIS WORK, MAKING CONNECTIONS AND CREATING THEIR OWN MEANING, AN ENGAGEMENT THAT IS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT FOR YOUNG CHILDREN, WHO DEVELOP VISUAL LITERACY WELL BEFORE THEY ARE ABLE TO READ. WIESNER'S WORDLESS NARRATIVES DEMAND ATTENTION AND DEDUCTION FROM THEIR READERS AND ENCOURAGE EXPRESSIVE LANGUAGE AND PREDICTIVE REASONING SKILLS. ACTIVITIES WITHIN THE EXHIBITION FOR CHILDREN, FAMILIES, AND ADULTS HAVE BEEN CREATED TO FURTHER INSPIRE THESE SKILLS AND CREATE FUN EXPERIENCES FOR VISITORS OF ALL AGES.

	A NEW STATE OF MATTER: CONTEMPORARY GLASS GLASS HAS BEEN CALLED A NEW STATE OF MATTER BECAUSE IT IS NOT PURELY A LIQUID, SOLID, OR GAS. GLASS CAN TRANSITION FROM A LIQUID TO A SOLID OVER A WIDE TEMPERATURE RANGE, CAUSING IT TO BE NICKNAMED "CHAMELEON MATTER". THIS QUALITY MAKES IT AN IDEAL MEDIUM FOR A WIDE ARRAY OF PROCESSES INCLUDING BLOWING, KILN-FORMING, CASTING, AND FLAME-WORKING. GLASS CAN BE TRANSLUCENT, TRANSPARENT, OR OPAQUE; IT CAN REFRACT IMAGES OR REFLECT THEM BACK TO THE VIEWER; IT IS STRONG, YET DELICATE. THESE QUALITIES MAKE GLASS PERFECTLY SUITED FOR ARTISTS TO EXPLORE FRAGILITY, RESILIENCY, TRANSPARENCY, AND TRANSFORMATION. THIS EXHIBITION FEATURES WORK BY CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS WHO ARE USING GLASS IN INNOVATIVE WAYS, WHILE PRESENTING ITS METAPHORICAL POSSIBILITIES. THEIR ARTWORKS ALSO CONNECT TO BROADER CULTURAL, ENVIRONMENTAL, POLITICAL, AND SPIRITUAL THEMES. EACH OF THE NINETEEN ARTISTS INCLUDED IN THE EXHIBITION EXAMINES THE MATERIAL AND SYMBOLIC POTENTIAL OF GLASS IN UNIQUE AND REVEALING WAYS. FOR EXAMPLE, ARTISTS CHARLOTTE POTTER AND APRIL SURGENT USE THE ANCIENT PROCESS OF CAMEO GLASS ENGRAVING TO EXPLORE RELATIONSHIPS IN THE AGE OF SOCIAL MEDIA AND CLIMATE CHANGE, RESPECTIVELY. JEFFREY STENBOM UTILIZES CAST GLASS TO UNVEIL THE STRUGGLES FACING THE NATION'S VETERANS. DAVID CHATT, IN A REPETITIVE, LABOR-INTENSIVE PROCESS, COVERS FOUND OBJECTS WITH THOUSANDS OF MINISCULE GLASS BEADS TO DISCUSS FAMILY AND NOSTALGIA.
