eauford Delaney’s lifelong exploration of light
and color brings an energy and movement to his
portraits that allow the viewer to go beyond the
subject’s outer appearance and see, in the words
of biographer David Leeming, the subject’s “inner light.” The
Georgia Museum of Art has recently acquired a second portrait
painted by this renowned African American artist thanks to the
generous gift of Bonnie and Lee Stone. This vivid portrait of
Joe Gould, a well-known New York City bohemian, showcases
Delaney’s ability to capture the personality of his subjects.

accompany contemporary urban life. “When Night

drummers on the front of the screen, shown near

of the Paris metro on the back. Like a present-day

being a friend
the importance of being a friend
What does it mean to be a Friend
of the Georgia Museum of Art?
It means supporting the museum’s mission of teach-
ing, research and service—built on the most advanced
scholarship—for all learners. It means helping the
museum acquire notable works of art that enhance
its place as a first-rank center of learning and culture,
not only in Georgia but also in the Southeast and
throughout the country. It means helping the museum expand its educational programs for children
and families—introducing art and creativity as a
wonderful aspect of life to many who otherwise might
not have the experience. And it means having access
to a wide array of opportunities for involvement in
the museum—from volunteering to attending special
member-only previews and events—not to mention
the discounts and other special benefits.
Any one of these reasons would be compelling on its
own, but when taken together, the case for joining the
Friends seems like an irresistible proposition; however, increasing membership has its challenges. As
a nonprofit in a relatively small town without many
large businesses or corporate presences, the museum
faces the same fundraising conundrum as other organizations. The public loves and uses the museum’s
services, but many feel that they cannot afford to
support it, assume that the state or the university
pays for everything or think that inevitably, somehow,
someone else will take care of it. Virtually all of the
exhibitions and programming of the museum are
supported by private donations, which means that
the Friends of the Georgia Museum of Art play a vital
role in the museum’s mission.
Later this year the Board of the Friends will launch
a membership campaign to increase the number
of supporters who count themselves as Friends of
the Georgia Museum of Art. The Friends will focus
on one of the most rewarding benefits: reciprocal
membership for those who donate at least $100 a year.
Reciprocal membership means free entrance to more
than 600 museums across the country that would
otherwise charge for admission, including the High
Museum in Atlanta and the Frick Collection in New
York City, to name only two.
In addition to reciprocal membership, there are
many other incentives to join: recently, I overheard
a spirited discussion at a Friends board meeting on
that topic that juxtaposed the benefits of membership
with the satisfaction of knowing one is a patron of the
arts. Interesting points! As one thinks about joining
the Friends, it must be doubly compelling to consider

that while “eating the cake” of all the great benefits
Friends enjoy, one can also “have the cake” of sponsoring and promoting the education, scholarship and
outreach that are, in fact, the museum’s purpose.
As a new year begins, the Membership Committee
of the Board of the Friends urges everyone to renew
their existing memberships and extends a welcoming
hand to all who do not yet belong to the Friends or
who may have let their memberships expire. Ultimately, joining the Friends is the best way to enjoy
the museum, with benefits such as invitations to
exhibition openings and special events; receiving the
Museum’s award-winning quarterly magazine, Facet;
a discount on purchases in the Museum Shop; special
volunteer and involvement opportunities; reciprocal
right to free admission in hundreds of museums
across the country (for members joining at the $100
level and above); and a menu of one-of-a-kind opportunities for higher-level donors.
Joining the Friends means helping put the museum,
and Athens, on the map. We can take pride in supporting the Georgia Museum of Art, the University of
Georgia, Athens and indeed the state of Georgia as
places of significant stature in the arts, education and
culture throughout the U.S.
That is more than enough reason to be able to say “all
my friends are Friends!”

Membership Committee Chair
