Great Masterpieces of Art

              A New Building
Furthers the Program
Enlarged and finer facilities offer new possibilities for develop­ment,
and by the same token, impose greater responsibilities. Wiili
the completion of the new art gallery, studio and library building,
the Institute's art program enters a phase of further growth.
Given the importance of research and reference, the necessity
of training aids, the heart of any educational program is the library.
In its new quarters, the Institute's library will be able to expand
its growing collection of books, slides and picture files, in order to
become, as planned, the most complete art and design library under
one roof in the region, serving not only as a center of study for the
Institute but also becoming available to all qualified persons.
New studios will afford expansion and provide much needed
work space for increased enrollment. The galleries will complement
and enhance the Institute's art program by presentations of live art.
At the same time, and of equal importance, such presentations, in
a centrally located place, will serve the community as a whole. These
exhibitions will constitute another link in the already fine series of
presentations offered by museums and galleries in the region, with
which the Institute intends to cooperate fully, so that there may
be a well balanced exhibition program of community-wide interest.
