Dear Members and Friends,
The past fiscal year has been another year of accomplishment and renewal at the Bruce Museum. Peter C. Sutton,
our executive director, shares in his report the impressive range of activities—art and science exhibitions, educational
programs and public programs—presented by the Bruce Museum during the year.
In FY 2011, the Museum once again drew on the tremendously rich resources of its own collections and local
private collections to develop new shows, sought effective ways to drive up revenue and worked nimbly to economize at
every turn while remaining true to its mission to serve visitors and the wider community with first-rate exhibitions and public
programs. Although we saw some drop-off in the Annual Fund this year, we saw a healthy increase in our revenue derived
from special events. We are pleased to report that the Bruce Museum ended the year with a balanced budget. Our results
certainly attest to the generosity and commitment of the Bruce Museum’s friends and patrons.
From the design of its exhibitions to the implementation of its educational programs, from the maintenance and
security of its collections to the careful attention to its accounts, the Bruce Museum is very fortunate to have a cadre of
talented and committed board members, staff and volunteers on whom to rely for the successful execution of all of its
programs and activities. Over 400 volunteers donated 14,432 hours of service to the Museum last year, a considerable
increase in volunteer support over FY 2010. We are particularly heartened by the energetic commitment of the Bruce
Museum’s youth volunteers, who have made important contributions in support of every facet of the Museum’s operations.
The Museum’s Youth Committee organized a live TEDx webcast that generated a following of more than 5,000 people
worldwide in conjunction with the exhibition Arctic Sanctuary: Images of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, and the
Committee was recognized by the Association of Science-Technology Centers’ “Youth Inspired Challenge,” a national
program designed to strengthen science, technology, engineering and mathematics curricula in American schools. The
Neighborhood Collaborative completed its eighteenth successful year of providing a series of tours and inquiry-based
classes to school children in neighboring underserved communities. The Museum opened its new Seaside Center at the
Floren Family Environmental Center at Innis Arden Cottage, a handsome and well-appointed facility where educational
and research activities will be offered nine months out of each year.
Through its innovative and ambitious schedule of art and science exhibitions and full menu of public programs,
the Bruce reaches a multitude of visitors each year: school children, retirees, art collectors and scholars, first-time guests,
and members who visit us regularly. We hope that whether you have enjoyed one of the beautiful exhibitions this year,
or perhaps have been enriched by a film, lecture, visit to the Seaside Center, a docent-led tour of an exhibition, or other
educational offering, you will make the Bruce Museum a regular destination and visit often. On behalf of the Board, we
extend our sincere thanks to all of the Museum’s volunteers, members and staff who have worked tirelessly to turn in
another wonderful year of achievement at the Bruce.

Executive Director’s Report
14
Over the course of the last year the Bruce Museum has offered a wide variety
of exhibitions and programs, providing a savory menu even as the effects of
the recent economic downturn lingered. Augmenting major loan exhibitions,
we drew on the strengths of local private collections and our own permanent
collection to fill the schedule of twelve shows. The headlining exhibition last fall
was an interdisciplinary show, Circus! Art and Science Under the Big Top, which
surveyed this ever-popular spectacle with imagery from the eighteenth century
to the present and examined the physics and mechanics of many circus acts.
The exhibition was accompanied by a full array of public programs, including
a Family Day. Our annual holiday show, A Child’s View: 19th-Century Paper
Theaters, was drawn from the personal collection of Eric G. Bernard of New York
City and explored the history and variety of a children’s toy that first emerged in
the early nineteenth century. It showcased 35 miniature, antique paper theaters
and evoked bygone pastimes and forms of recreation. The major exhibition last
winter, Cindy Sherman: Works from Friends of the Bruce Museum, highlighted
the photography of Cindy Sherman, arguably the most famous woman artist
at present, from ten local collections. It offered a survey of her career and
emphasized the chameleon-like diversity of her self-portraits. Three shows drew
on the strengths of the permanent collection: Human Connections: Figural Art
from the Bruce Museum Collection, which explored a variety of approaches to
the human form; Kashmir Shawls from the Bruce Collection highlighted one of
the strengths of the textile collection; and Three Sisters & Corn Maidens: Native
American Maize Cultivation & Customs, explored the role of corn in Native
American culture using textiles, paintings, pottery, baskets and prehistoric
artifacts from the Bruce’s own holdings.
The major show last spring and summer was Power Incarnate: Allan
Stone’s Collection of Sculpture from the Congo, which featured outstanding,
previously unpublished “power figures” and related sculptures from the Congo
basin. Gathered by the renowned Contemporary Art dealer, the late Allan Stone,
it revealed the extraordinary power and beauty of these art works, which were
created to protect their communities from malevolence and disease. Finally,
Picasso’s Vollard Suite: The Sculptor’s Studio was again borrowed from a local
private collector and highlighted a group of etchings from the suite of more
than 100 prints that Picasso exchanged with the legendary art dealer and
publisher, Ambroise Vollard. They were executed at a time in the 1930s when
Picasso sought to assert himself as a three dimensional artist, entering into a
friendly competition with other leading sculptors of the day, including Matisse
and Brancusi.

Visitors of all ages participated in the Museum’s public programs,
including educational tours and classes from pre-K to grade 12 students,
Family Days featuring storytellers, acrobats, naturalists, as well as art classes
and hands-on activities, and lectures, tours and film series for adults. We
served 5,257 students and adults through 318 programs in our school and
group tours. Another 6,163 adults and students were engaged by our traveling
Brucemobile, an educational outreach program that brings artifact-based lessons
to classrooms and selected community organizations. Art historians, scientists,
and historians offered twenty-eight lectures at the Museum. In conjunction with
the Cindy Sherman show, the Hascoe Lecture series centered on the theme of
photography, while the national parks, preserves and refuges were the subject
of the Science Lecture Series. The Museum’s energetic Youth Committee
organized its first TEDx event in March with a live webcast featuring a panel of
nationally renowned speakers addressing issues relating to the protection of our
national wildlife refuges. In addition to the 75 local students who attended, it drew
more than 5,000 viewers from around the world who logged on to the webcast.
16
Additional student workshops were offered on topics ranging from the wonders
of Yellowstone National Park and its wolf population, local animal life, paper
theaters, and Native American crafts.
The Museum continued to offer its popular outreach program, the
Neighborhood Collaborative, which brings students from pre-K to grade 8 from
low-income neighborhoods spanning from the Bronx to Bridgeport along the I-95
corridor. It reached nearly 900 students with 179 classes. This award-winning
program provides a series of four visits and inquiry-based classes at no cost
to the participating organization, including round-trip bus transportation. An
important component of the program is the engagement of Junior Educators, high
school students who are trained and paid a nominal amount to teach elementarylevel classes to the younger students. In June the renovated Innis Arden Cottage
opened at Greenwich Point as the new home of the Bruce Museum’s Seaside
Center and the Floren Family Environmental Center. Equipped with a state-ofthe-art marine touch tank, other aquaria and interactive exhibits it also offers
meeting and workspaces for research as well as educational workshops. Staffed
by the Museum’s naturalists, in its first summer of operation the new Seaside
Center attracted 6,066 visitors, almost double the number of visitors who had
come the previous year.
We are fortunate to have a committed cadre of volunteers, numbering
more than 400, who donated a total of 14,432 hours of service to the Museum
complementing the dedicated work of the staff. With corporate underwriting of
exhibitions still difficult to secure in an uncertain economy, we continued to rely
on revenues derived from special events, notably the annual Renaissance Ball,
and a creative new fundraiser, Dimensions in Dining, which featured a series of
dinner parties at the homes of donors and benefactors, to which distinguished
individuals in a broad range of fields were invited. Through the ongoing
generosity of our Trustees and members and the economic restraint of the
staff, we were able to post a balanced budget.
We are proud of our commitment to the mission of the institution
and service to the community, providing a broad range of exhibitions of the
first quality.

Education Programs
Each year the Museum provides a wide
variety of museum-based and outreach
educational programs to reach the
broadest possible audience.
42
Public Programs
The Museum organized and presented 64 different educational programs for the general public in 2010–2011. Another
29 programs were organized by associated organizations for a total of 93 education programs on the Museum’s calendar.
A total of 5,323 people attended public programs this year.
Family Days
One of the Museum’s most popular offerings, Family Days are festive occasions that provide parents and children many
opportunities for exploration, hands-on activities, and entertainment. There were six family days in 2010–2011, which drew
approximately 1,400 to the Museum: Family Fossil Fun Night!, Circus Family Day, Paper Theaters Family Day, the Martin
Luther King, Jr. Day Annual Celebration, Astronomy Day, Animals in Our Backyards Family Day, and Native American
Family Day. The Animals in Our Backyards Family Day was the Museum’s most popular family day, drawing 293 visitors
followed by the annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Family Day with 200 attendees.
Children’s Programs
There were various student workshops in 2010–2011 including four days in July devoted to evolution with a focus on the
wonders of Yellowstone National Park and its wolf population, and some were co-sponsored by the Yellowstone Park
Foundation. In its eighth year of operation, the summer 2010 painting course, Palettes, Brushes, and Paint, was offered
to students in the 4th–7th grades. It remains a popular and well attended program. A new program, the Diane W. Darst
Learning to Look® Family Art Appreciation Lectures, offers families a lesson on visual literacy, informal gallery dialogues
between families and Museum educators, docents, and Junior Educators, and an art-making project in the Museum’s
workshop. The first lecture was held in March and complemented the Cindy Sherman: Works from Friends of the Bruce
Museum and Human Connections: Figural Art from the Bruce Museum Collection exhibitions; the second, held in June,
focused on Picasso and printmaking and complemented Picasso’s Vollard Suite: The Sculptor’s Studio.
School Vacation Workshops
The Museum offers vacation workshops that coincide with Greenwich public school vacations in February, April and
December. This year’s workshops focused on local animal life in February in conjunction with our Changes in Our Land
exhibition, Native American crafts in April in conjunction with Three Sisters & Corn Maidens: Native American Maize
Cultivation & Customs and paper theaters in December associated with A Child’s View: 19th-Century Paper Theaters.
Affiliate Organizations
Four local organizations whose educational missions and objectives are aligned with those of the Bruce Museum present a
number of programs at the Museum each year, many of which are co-sponsored by the Bruce and relate to its exhibitions.
These programs bring new people to the Museum and generate good will in the community. The groups are Archaeological
Associates of Greenwich, Astronomical Society of Greenwich, Connecticut Ceramics Study Circle, and the Greenwich
Antiques Society. Other groups that held events at the Museum include Greenwich Tree Conservancy, the Conservation
Commission and the Stamford Mineralogical Society.

School Services and Group Tours
The Museum offers tours of exhibitions and special programs for school and adult groups. School programs are inquirybased, promote critical thinking, written and oral expression, correlate to school curricula and feature hands-on learning
activities using objects from the Museum,s collections and exhibitions. Many are interdisciplinary and accommodate various
learning styles. In 2010–2011 the Museum offered 199 programs reaching 3,913 students and 116 tours for 1,269 adults.
Program Popularity
Our top programs for students:
Coastal Ecology/Crusty Crabs = 76 classes
Woodland Indian Life = 73 classes
Animal Adaptations = 39 classes
Mineral Marvels = 32 classes
Eat or Be Eaten: Animal Survival Strategies = 31 classes
Butterflies = 15 classes
Human Connections: Figural Art from the Bruce Museum Collection = 16 classes
Circus! Art and Science Under the Big Top = 12 classes
Our top programs for adults:
Cindy Sherman: Works from Friends of the Bruce Museum = 19 tours
Circus! Art and Science Under the Big Top = 10 tours
A Child’s View: 19th-Century Paper Theaters = 8 tours
The Dressmaker’s Art: Highlights from the Bruce Museum’s Costume Collection = 5 tours
Three Sisters & Corn Maidens: Native American Maize Cultivation & Customs = 2 tours
Multi-exhibition tours = 18 tours
Docent Program
The high quality of the Museum’s programming would suffer without the services of a committed cadre of dedicated
volunteer docents. The museum experience for a large segment of our audience depends on the quality of their docent-led
tour or class. Docent selection, training and evaluation are critically important to our overall mission. This year 50 active
docents received weekly training sessions featuring Museum programs and exhibitions, classroom teaching techniques,
education theory, and tours with exhibition curators.
Teacher Workshop and Previews
Keeping teachers informed about Museum opportunities is a vital component of our School Services. The Education
Department offered two previews featuring staff-led tours and specialized workshops focusing on the following exhibitions
in 2010–2011: Circus! Art and Science Under the Big Top and Three Sisters & Corn Maidens: Native American Maize
Cultivation & Customs. A teacher’s preview of Cindy Sherman: Works from Friends of the Bruce Museum was cancelled
due to inclement winter weather.
45
Each teacher preview includes information about the exhibition, curriculum connections, useful vocabulary, and
ideas about how teachers can incorporate what they have learned into their lessons. Teachers who participate in Teacher
workshops and previews receive Continuing Education Units (CEUs), which teachers are required to earn to maintain their
certification. The Bruce Museum is a state-approved CEU provider.
Teachers’ Advisory Council
The Teachers’ Advisory Council is a group of area teachers with varying specialties who work with different age groups,
advise the Education Department and serve as Museum advocates. The teachers generate ideas for programs in
conjunction with upcoming exhibitions, assist with focus groups, help to forge curriculum connections between the
Museum’s current programs, and advise on pre- and post-museum visit materials.
Neighborhood Collaborative
This hallmark program of the Bruce Museum has completed its sixteenth year of offering free bus transportation and
educational programs to at-risk children in community centers and after-school and Head Start programs. In 2010–2011,
179 Neighborhood Collaborative Head Start (pre-kindergarten) and after-school (elementary grade) classes reached
nearly 900 students.
Junior Educators
During 2010–2011, 13 students from Greenwich High School took part in the Museum’s Neighborhood Collaborative
programs, leading 125 classes with help from the Education Department. All Junior Educators received training to prepare
them to lead the after-school program of our Neighborhood Collaborative program. There were 17 training sessions given
throughout the year. Members of the year’s Junior Educators corps were Lisley DaSilva, Cecilia Cerrilla, Ted Mitchell,
Maharlika Alangilan, Stephanie Condori, Julia McDonald, Jamie Denton, Andrew Garcia, Serena Cattau, Katie Gilder,
Nicholas Ospina, Dane Burge, and Charlotte D’Acierno.
Middle School After School Program
This was the ninth year of the Middle School After School program, a part of the Neighborhood Collaborative. For the third
year in a row, the Hand-in-Hand Club from Western Middle School in Greenwich visited the Museum eight times during the
school year. Two other school groups, from Port Chester Middle School and Family & Children’s Agency Inc., participated
in the program during a four-month period beginning in December 2010. Participants in the Middle School After School
program visited the Museum several times and participated in a variety of programs led by members of the Education
Department and docents. They received guided tours of permanent and changing exhibitions, took part in discussions
about the objects and artworks on view and completed hands-on activities relating to the exhibitions.
Outreach Education – The Brucemobile
The Brucemobile is an educational outreach program that takes the Museum directly to students in their classrooms.
Museum educational outreach programs allow school classes that cannot visit the Museum a chance to experience
object-based learning in their classrooms. Programs are inquiry-based and promote critical thinking, science, visual

literacy, and written and oral expression. All programs feature hands-on learning activities using objects and specimens
from Museum collections. The student program topics and number of programs presented this year were:
Marine Ecology = 62
Animal Adaptations = 56
Native Americans and Woodland Indians = 48
Prehistoric Peoples/Archaeology Associates of Greenwich = 41
Butterflies = 41
Shapes and Patterns = 9
Skeletons = 6
Rock Detectives = 17
Desert Ecology = 1
Dinosaurs = 6
Outreach Program for Adults
In addition to its outreach program for students, the Bruce Museum each year organizes two adult outreach education
programs, Speaker’s Bureau and Lifetime of Looking.
Speaker’s Bureau is an outreach education program designed to generate public interest in current and upcoming
Museum exhibitions through lectures to adult organizations. This year Milton Negrin and Sallie Garrick presented a
program to the Men’s Club at The Osborn, a retirement community in Rye, NY.
Once again this year, Museum docent Alice Kraus delivered the visual literacy program, A Lifetime of Looking,
for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. This multi-sensory program uses objects, artists’
materials and reproduction images from Bruce Museum collections or past exhibitions to evoke verbal responses of
memories and personal stories from participants. Ms. Kraus presented 25 programs to 250 people during 2010–2011.
In 2010–2011, the Museum offered 313 educational outreach programs serving 6,163 students and adults.
Scholarship Programming
Scholarships enable students and other individuals who otherwise would be unable to visit the Museum or participate
in an outreach program to benefit from a museum experience. Thanks to the generosity of our corporate members, the
Education Department provided 142 scholarships valued at $7,397.50 to 2,918 participants, broken out as follows:
42 museum-based programs presented to 732 participants and 100 outreach programs benefiting 2,186 students.
Internships at the Bruce Museum
Administered by the Education Department, the Museum’s internship program was active again in 2010–2011. There
were four types of internships this year: Career internships for college and university students, semester-based education
internships, high school senior internships, and the resident internship, which was recently reinstated.
Generously underwritten for the three-year period 2010–2013 by Bruce Museum Trustee Michael Grunberg in
memory of his father and administered by the Education Department, the Zvi Grunberg Resident Internship provides a
48
unique opportunity for a young college graduate to learn about many facets of museum operations and to gain important
professional experience. Our 2010–2011 Zvi Grunberg Resident Intern was Julie Barry, who worked alongside the Director
of Education and Museum Registrar, completed weekly assignments from the Director of Public Relations, and served as
Curator of the spring 2011 exhibition, Human Connections: Figural Art from the Bruce Museum Collection.
The Museum offered five career internships this past year, four of them during the summer of 2010. Max Newland,
a student of SUNY-ESF, worked at the Seaside Center; Victoria Campofranco, of Middlebury College, interned with Jack
Coyle, Registrar, in collections management; Lee Wacker, a student of Bryn Mawr College, worked in the Public Relations
department; Ariel Akselrad worked in the Education Department; and Shannon Dunn, of Colorado College, worked with our
Curator of Science, Gina Gould, during the academic year beginning in September 2010. Joanie Meharry, a student at the
University of Edinburgh, spent the spring semester in the Education Department as our Museum Education Intern. Two high
school senior Interns spent four and five weeks with us in the spring of 2011. They were Maharlika Alangilan, a Greenwich
High School student, and Gabriele Bras, who attended Wilton High School.
Seaside Center Summer 2010
Total visitation at the Seaside Center this year was 6,066, almost double the number of attendees in recent summers
including 2009, when total attendance was 3,063. The Seaside Center operated under the management of Naturalist
Kerry Hand and Assistant Naturalist John Curry. They were responsible for all aspects of the Center’s operation, including
aquarium setup, volunteer orientation, scheduling at the start of the season, planning and supervision of all activities (e.g.
seining, nature walks, arts and crafts). They were responsible for maintenance of the facility and its aquarium.
Several volunteers also worked at the Seaside Center. They assisted with tank maintenance and gathered
specimens for use in lessons. After training by the Naturalists, the volunteers interacted with visitors to the Center, gaining
important hands-on teaching experience. There were 54 active volunteers in 2010, most of them high school and college
student, who averaged 17 hours of service each month. Max Newland, our summer intern, contributed 185 hours of
service, and we recognize Melissa Fu and Diane Abercrombie who volunteered 105 and 75 hours of service to the
Seaside Center, respectively.
Volunteer Program
The Bruce Museum’s cadre of active volunteers is comprised of Trustees and Committee Members, Docents, Student
Craft Activity Assistants, Exhibit Chaperones, Mail Club, Museum Store Assistants, Museum Ambassadors, Seaside Center
Assistants, Special Event Participants, Youth Committee Members, and Staff Support Assistants. The Museum engaged
410 active volunteers during 2010–2011, who contributed 14,432 hours of service to the Bruce. The value of their combined
contribution to the Museum totaled $393,560, based on the Connecticut State average dollar value volunteer rate of $27.27.
The total active youth volunteer count was 194 in 2010–2011, up from 140 in the previous year. Youth volunteers provided
8,523 hours of service to the Museum, in support of the Youth Committee, family days, festivals, special events, and office
support. The number of active adult volunteers was 216; they contributed 5,909 hours of service in 2010–2011.
The Bruce Museum Youth Committee – Youth@Bruce
Drawn from the group of 140 youth volunteers at the Bruce Museum, Youth@Bruce was comprised of students from
49
Greenwich High School (13), Darien High School (1), and New Rochelle High School (1) during 2010–2011. They were
Gillis Baxter, Dane Burge, Ann Cavers, Christine Contreras, Lisley DaSilva, Jacki DeSantis, Nicole DeSantis, Michael
Grung, Marina Kaneko, Andrew Lewis, Teddy Mitchell, Katie Moore, Nicholas Otis, Alex Romer, and Sarah Rutledge.
They contributed almost 2,000 hours of service to the Museum during the year.
Youth@Bruce members participated in several Museum projects during the year. They organized the second
iCreate! Teen Art, a juried teen art exhibition that has become a part of the Museum’s annual exhibition schedule; raised
more than $3,000 online using Kickstarter.com to fund the exhibition, Arctic Sanctuary: Images of the Arctic National
Wildlife Refuge; and helped to organize the Museum’s first live webcast entitled, TEDxYouth@Bruce, which was held
in conjunction with Arctic Sanctuary and generated a following of more than 5,000 people worldwide. Youth@Bruce
was recognized by the Association of Science & Technology Centers’ “Youth Inspired Challenge,” a national program
spearheaded by President Obama to strengthen science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) curricula
in American schools.

Family Benefit: Circus! Family and Fun Under the Big Top
October 7, 2010
Approximately 600 guests joined event chairmen Lisa Short Fritsch and
Julie Woods under a large tent erected on the Museum’s grounds for Circus!
Family and Fun Under the Big Top, a family benefit held in conjunction with
the exhibition, Circus! Art and Science Under the Big Top. Guests enjoyed
performances by members of the Big Apple Circus ‘Circus To Go’ and tried
their hand at juggling and plate spinning. The day also included opportunities
to partake in circus-themed crafts projects, face painting and a family-focused
silent auction. A great time was had by all!
Dimensions in Dining
November 3–5, 2010
A creative new fundraiser, Dimensions in Dining, featured a series of eleven
elegant dinners in private Greenwich homes over three nights in November that
drew sixteen leaders from fields as diverse as fashion and design to finance,
science and the media. A mammoth undertaking by any measure, Dimensions in
Dining was a smashing success thanks to the creative leadership of the event’s
chairmen, Leora Levy, Pamela Lewanda and Linda Munger, as well as the
commitment and graciousness of the evenings’ guests of honor and wonderful
hosts: Tiffany Burnette and Don Casturo, Patricia and John Chadwick, Lucy and
Nat Day, Myrna Haft, Alicia and Ray Joslin, Michael Kovner and Jean Doyen de
Montaillou, Leora and Steven Levy, Linda and Steve Munger, Helen Nitkin, Nancy
and Walter Raquet, Anna and Larry Simon, Jennifer and David Stockman, Alease
and Paul Tallman, and Irene and Carl Zelinsky.

The Renaissance Ball – June 4, 2011
Noche Latina
The Riverside Yacht Club was once again the site for the Bruce Museum’s annual gala, The Renaissance Ball. The theme
of this year’s ball was “Noche Latina,” celebrating the exuberance of the Latin spirit. Approximately 360 people joined
gala co-chairs Carmiña Roth and Jennifer Weinstein to celebrate the evening’s honorees Alicia and Ray Joslin for their
unparalleled commitment to the Museum. The gala co-chairs, committee chairs and all committee members worked
tirelessly to ensure that the evening’s festivities – from cocktails and silent auction to dinner and dancing – combined to
create a memorable and fantastic evening enjoyed by all. The design elements of the evening, including ambient lighting,
gorgeous exotic floral arrangements and beautiful place settings, enhanced everyone’s enjoyment of the event. An exciting
live auction followed dinner, and the Starlight Orchestra kept everyone on the dance floor with music with just the right
amount of Latin flair. The Renaissance Ball is the Bruce Museum’s major annual fund raising event whose proceeds
support Museum education and exhibition programming.
