THE WASHINGTON PAVILION WAS HONORED TO HOST PERFORMANCES AND EVENTS IN THE MARY W. SOMMERVOLD HALL, THE BELBAS THEATER, AND SPACES INSIDE THE ORPHEUM THEATRE CENTER, NEWLY MANAGED BY THE PAVILION AS OF JULY 2019. THE ORGANIZATION'S PERFORMANCE FACILITIES ARE HOME TO THE PAVILION PERFORMANCE SERIES, THE WASHINGTON PAVILION'S ANNUAL PRESENTATION OF SIX WORLD-CLASS TOURING BROADWAY PRODUCTIONS. THE WASHINGTON PAVILION PRESENTS ADDITIONAL MISSION-RELATED PERFORMANCES AND COLLABORATES WITH MAJOR PRODUCERS, PROMOTERS AND ORGANIZATIONS SO THEY MAY RENT FACILITIES AT THE WASHINGTON PAVILION AND THE ORPHEUM THEATER CENTER TO SHOWCASE ALL THAT THE ARTS HAVE TO OFFER. AS A RESULT OF THE PANDEMIC, AN ADDITIONAL 19 ENGAGEMENTS (MANY OF WHICH INVOLVED MULTIPLE PERFORMANCES) WERE CANCELED OR POSTPONED BETWEEN MARCH 12 AND JUNE 25, 2020.

THE KIRBY SCIENCE DISCOVERY CENTER (KSDC) AND THE VISUAL ARTS CENTER (VAC) EXPERIENCED THEIR HIGHEST HEIGHTS AND LOWEST DEPTHS IN THE LAST FISCAL YEAR. BY EARLY DECEMBER 2019, THE MUSEUMS HAD THEIR HIGHEST ANNUAL ATTENDANCE IN THE PAVILION'S HISTORY. THE WASHINGTON PAVILION WELCOMED 112,512 INDIVIDUALS INTO THE VAC AND KSDC, AN INCREASE OF 21,195 GUESTS OVER THE PREVIOUS YEAR. AS COVID-19 CREPT INTO SOUTH DAKOTA, THE WASHINGTON PAVILION MADE THE DECISION TO CLOSE ITS DOORS FROM MARCH TO JUNE OF 2020. MUSEUM ATTENDANCE WENT FROM AN ALL-TIME HIGH TO NOTHING OVERNIGHT. THE MUSEUMS ENDED THE JULY 2019-JUNE 2020 FISCAL YEAR HAVING WELCOMED 77,109 GUESTS. DESPITE THE CHALLENGES FROM THE CLOSURE, THE MUSEUMS CONTINUED TO INVENT NEW WAYS TO CONNECT WITH MEMBERS, CREATE NEW EXHIBITS, AND BUILD UPON THE CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE.THE HIGHLIGHTS OF THE YEAR FOR THE KSDC INCLUDED FABRICATING AND OPENING AN EXHIBIT FEATURING SOUTH DAKOTA SCIENCE WITH AVERA HEALTH ON THE THIRD FLOOR OF THE KSDC. THIS EXHIBIT WAS AN INVESTMENT OF $600,000, COVERED NEARLY 6,000 SQUARE FEET, AND WAS MADE POSSIBLE BY THE CITY OF SIOUX FALLS, THE DAVID B. JONES FOUNDATION, AND AVERA HEALTH. THE KSDC ALSO HOSTED THE TRAVELING EXHIBIT GROSSOLOGY: THE (IMPOLITE) SCIENCE OF THE HUMAN BODY, WHICH WAS AN INSTANT HIT WITH NEARLY EVERY CHILD THAT EXPERIENCED IT.THE WASHINGTON PAVILION HAS SEEN A HIGHER FOCUS ON ITS VOLUNTEER TEAMS, THE CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE, COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS, AND OVERALL INVESTMENTS IN BOTH THE KSDC AND VAC. FAVORITE ANNUAL EVENTS, SUCH AS AG DAY, SPOOKY SCIENCE, AND THE SIDEWALK ARTS FESTIVAL, CONTINUED TO BE A MAJOR PART OF WHAT THE PAVILION OFFERS ITS COMMUNITY. THIS YEAR, EACH OF THESE EVENTS LOOKED A BIT DIFFERENT DUE TO THE GLOBAL PANDEMIC. HOWEVER, ALL OF THE EVENTS WERE ABLE TO TAKE PLACE AND CONTRIBUTED TO THE ATTENDANCE IN THE MUSEUMS. THE WASHINGTON PAVILION WAS GRATEFUL TO WELCOME MANY NEW SPONSORS AND SUPPORTERS IN BOTH OF ITS ACCREDITED MUSEUM SPACES.BELOW IS A LIST OF SOME OF THE LARGER PROJECTS AND EXHIBITIONS THAT LAUNCHED IN THE KIRBY SCIENCE DISCOVERY CENTER IN 2019/2020:-COMPLETED SOUTH DAKOTA SCIENCE EXHIBIT PHASE 1FOCUS ON SOUTH DAKOTA PROFESSIONSFABRICATED DINOSAUR DISCOVERY EXHIBIT AREA IN-HOUSE- PURCHASED AND INSTALLED A SECOND, AND LARGER, OUTDOOR SPINOSAURUS DINOSAUR IN FRONT OF THE WELLS FARGO CINEDOME-MADE UPDATES TO THE WELLS FARGO CINEDOME CONCESSIONS AREA-INSTALLED ONE OF THE ARTISTS DICK TERMES' TERMESPHERES IN THE ENTRANCE TO THE WELLS FARGO CINEDOME-DESIGNED AND INSTALLED NEW DIGITAL PUZZLE INTERACTIVES ON THE THIRD FLOORWELLS FARGO CINEDOME EDUCATIONAL FILMSOVER 23,739 PATRONS ENJOYED EDUCATIONAL FILMS IN THE WELLS FARGO CINEDOME IN 2019/2020.

THE VISUAL ARTS CENTER (VAC) IS FULLY ACCREDITED BY THE AMERICAN ALLIANCE OF MUSEUMS. THE VAC HOSTED 23 INDIVIDUAL EXHIBITIONS THAT FEATURED ARTISTS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD AS WELL AS THE HIGHEST-CALIBER ARTISTS FROM SOUTH DAKOTA. IN THE LAST FISCAL YEAR, THE VAC DEDICATED BOTH THE YOUNG ARTIST GALLERY AND THE BATES TRIMBLE GALLERY IN WHAT ARE NOW FORMALLY KNOWN AS THE CONTEMPORARY GALLERY AND SOUTH DAKOTA GALLERY, RESPECTIVELY. THE YOUNG ARTIST GALLERY WAS CONCEIVED AS A MISSION-CENTRIC INITIATIVE TO UPLIFT ALL ARTISTS WITH A FOCUS ON PROVIDING AN ACCREDITED MUSEUM SPACE AND PROFESSIONAL GALLERY EXPERIENCE TO UP-AND-COMING TALENT IN THE COMMUNITY. THE BATES TRIMBLE GALLERY CAME ABOUT AS A COLLABORATION BETWEEN THE PAVILION AND GENEROUS SUPPORTERS TO SEEK OUT THE BEST OF THE BEST IN SOUTH DAKOTA AND FEATURE ART OF ALL MEDIUMS. SEVERAL EXHIBITIONS IN THE LAST YEAR THAT GARNERED POSITIVE REVIEWS WITHIN THE COMMUNITY INCLUDED DAVID HAMLOW'S FLOOR-TO-CEILING FOUND-OBJECT SCULPTURAL PIECES AS WELL AS DIEGO RODRIGUEZ-WARNER'S MASSIVE AND INTELLECTUAL PAINTINGS.JULY 2019-JUNE 2020 VISUAL ARTS CENTER EXHIBITIONS:AMANDA MCCAVOUR: PINK FIELD, BLUE FOG JANUARY 20-JULY 25, 2019 IN THE CORNER GALLERYUNIVERSITY OF SOUTH DAKOTA ART FACULTY EXHIBITIONFEBRUARY 9-JULY 14, 2019 IN THE EVERIST GALLERYWATERCOLOR ON THE PLAINS MARCH 2-SEPTEMBER 19, 2019 IN THE SOUTH DAKOTA GALLERYLADAN BAHMANI & ALICE J.
