Dear Friends, Sea changes have come to the nation, our Golden State, and your California Historical Society over the past two years. Fired with the passions of our mission, we at CHS sustained our commitment to broadening understanding of history’s reach and relevance to contemporary lives. The power of purposeful partnerships continued to shape and drive our work. We were deeply honored to animate and lead the year-long, wide-reaching centenary celebration of the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition, creating the collaborative PPIE100 project and website with the City and County of San Francisco and more than sixty cultural partners. CHS presented two stellar exhibitions under the project title City Rising and joined with the AT&T Foundation and the Hearst Family and Foundation to create the Phoebe Apperson Hearst Educational Fund, engaging students in the project. In summer 2017, CHS commemorated the fiftieth anniversary of 1967’s Summer of Love with an innovative and ambitious public history project. Partnering with San Francisco Travel, CHS linked and promoted the exhibitions, scholarship, and events with some seventy partners and mounted our own culminating exhibition, On the Road to the Summer of Love. The San Francisco city-county partnership has proven enduring and impactful. Building on a 2014 grant, in 2016 CHS was selected as the city’s partner in exploring rehabilitation of the iconic Old U.S. Mint, a National Historic Landmark standing proudly at the corner of Fifth and Mission Streets since its opening in 1874. The partnership expanded in 2016, when the State Library granted CHS $1 million to work with the City of San Francisco to explore a future vision for the Old U.S Mint, both as a home for the organization and a vibrant neighborhood anchor and community cultural center. Then in June 2017, the State Department of Education granted $5 million to CHS to create Teaching California, a free, online curriculum supplement for K-12 students aligned with the state’s History-Social Science Framework adopted in the summer of 2016, which will draw from primary source materials in our own and other digital repositories. Receiving these two state grants in consecutive years—with critical assistance from key CHS Trustees, the City and County of San Francisco, and enlightened legislative leaders including Senator Mark Leno and Assemblymember Phil Ting—has brought CHS the opportunity to ensure a sustainable future and to elevate history’s place in the state’s agenda.

As the Golden State’s official historical society since 1979, in the spirit of a true statewide organization CHS extended its reach into the historic heart of Los Angeles. In spring of 2015, we opened offices in LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes at El Pueblo de Los Ángeles Historical Monument. CHS and LA Plaza partnered in the Getty’s initiative Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA—a dialogue between Latin America and Los Angeles—conducting path-breaking curatorial research that is now bearing fruit in the exhibition and publication ¡Murales Rebeldes! L.A. Chicana/o Murals under Siege. CHS moves ever closer to being the historical society model for innovation, excellence, and transformation that it intends to be: accessible, vibrant, and relevant to contemporary dialogues. Efforts to make CHS’s vast, varied, and important collections more accessible—the cornerstone of our work—resulted in the launch of the CHS Digital Library, with the support of Hearst Foundation, Henry M. Newhall Foundation, Steve Silberstein, and David Rumsey, and the continued production of outstanding exhibitions, educational programming, and publications. Of course, none of what the California Historical Society has been able to achieve over the course of these two years would have been possible without the essential loyalty, good counsel, and generosity of our many donors, members, friends, and partners. We remain grateful for each and every one of you as we continue our quest to make California’s complicated and poignant histories into a tool for creating a more just and informed future. On behalf of our Board of Trustees, staff, and volunteers, I remain yours, gratefully,

Anthea M. Hartig, Ph.D. Executive Director & CEO 31 December 2017

S TAT E I N V E S T M E N T In 1979, then Governor Edmund G. Brown signed legislation designating the California Historical Society, founded in 1871, the official state historical society. But it was not until 2016–2017 that the state made significant investments in the organization’s nearly 150-year history.

The Old Mint Restoration Project In June 2016, the State of California granted CHS $1 million through the State Library to explore, plan, and conduct the required studies for restoring San Francisco’s 1874 Old U.S. Mint building as CHS’s future home. A few months earlier, in March 2016, following a competitive Request for Proposal process, the City of San Francisco had selected CHS as lead partner in its Old U.S. Mint Restoration Project, a series of studies and activities designed to help assess the viability of restoring the Old U.S. Mint and transforming this historic treasure into a center of history, culture, and education for learners of all ages. Adding to CHS’s previous initial feasibility studies conducted in 2014 and afforded by a grant from the City’s Historic Preservation Fund, the new funding marks an important milestone in advancing the next phases of CHS’s investigation: conducting a capital campaign feasibility study; developing a full business and financial plan, market study, and revenue analysis; and designing a Community Cultural Commons, among other priorities. It is expected that a full reuse and rehabilitation proposal will be completed by CHS by the end of 2018.

California Historical Society

Teaching California One year after receiving its very first significant state investment, in June 2017, the California Department of Education, through the San Francisco Unified School District, awarded CHS $5 million—the largest grant in the organization’s history—to establish Teaching California, an innovative, free, online resource of instructional materials that support California’s History-Social Science Framework. The program’s objective—to foster better understanding of the state’s history, improve student literacy, and promote civic learning and engagement—will ensure that California’s most important primary source documents, starting with those in the CHS Collections, are readily accessible to all K-12 students and their teachers. CHS is working with the California History-Social Science Project (CHSSP) at the University of California, Davis to develop and implement this important initiative.

M A J O R P U B L I C H I S TO RY I N I T I AT I V E S In 2015 and 2017, key San Francisco institutions turned to the California Historical Society to help plan, shape, and execute two major public history initiatives in celebration of milestones in the city’s cultural and social history. Under CHS’s leadership, through exhibitions, programming, and centralized digital content, these projects engaged hundreds of thousands of Bay Area residents, visitors from other parts of the state, and tourists from across and outside the country.

PPIE100 In 2015, CHS led the yearlong, citywide celebration of the centennial of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition (PPIE), the 1915 World’s Fair that marked San Francisco’s recovery from the 1906 earthquakes and fires and the 1914 opening of the Panama Canal. Throughout 2015, in partnership with the San Francisco Recreation and Parks Department, Innovation Hangar, and the Maybeck Foundation, CHS organized more than sixty nonprofit organizations under the PPIE100 brand to explore the fair’s impact and legacy on the region and beyond. The centerpieces of CHS’s efforts were two exhibitions about the PPIE’s history, both under the title City Rising: San Francisco and the 1915 World’s Fair: one in the exhibition hall of the Palace of Fine Arts, Bernard Maybeck’s PPIE showpiece, and the other at CHS headquarters. CHS organized a third exhibition, presented at San Francisco’s War Memorial Building during the San Francisco Ballet’s Nutcracker. More than 500,000 people viewed the exhibitions at all three locations. CHS also created the official PPIE centennial website, www.ppie100.org, which featured hundreds of events and exclusive essays.

Summer of Love: San Francisco 1967–2017 The year 2017 marked the fiftieth anniversary of the Summer of Love, a controversial, revolutionary, and confusing period in 1967 when more than 100,000 young people descended on San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury neighborhood and other areas of California to “turn on, tune in, drop out.” CHS partnered with San Francisco Travel, the city’s official destination marketing organization, to recognize the half-century mark of this iconic period in the state’s history. Summer of Love: San Francisco 1967–2017 provided residents and tourists multiple opportunities to reflect on this complex period in our history, as well as to recognize the ways in which our state and nation were impacted by a counterculture that only could have come of age in California. In partnership with San Francisco Travel, CHS created an official Summer of Love brand for the project, used by city hotels and restaurants; a centralized digital hub, http://SummerOf.Love, for cultural activities throughout the city and state; and the initiative’s official history exhibition, On the Road to the Summer of Love, curated by Grateful Dead historian Dennis McNally, in the CHS Galleries.

LO S A N G E L E S E X PA N S I O N In 2015, the California Historical Society returned officially to the City of Los Angeles for the first time since closing its Los Angeles History Center in 1989. With offices at LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes—the city’s primary Mexican and Mexican American heritage organization in historic downtown Los Angeles—CHS is producing engaging exhibitions and programming and building relationships with other institutions dedicated to preserving and telling Los Angeles’s complicated history.

¡Murales Rebeldes! L.A. Chicana/o Murals under Siege Over the past two years, CHS has participated in the Getty’s region-wide initiative Pacific Standard Time: LA/ LA, a major effort highlighting Latin American art and its influences on Los Angeles. In partnership with LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes, CHS developed the pioneering ¡Murales Rebeldes! project highlighting Chicana/o murals in Southern California—a cornerstone of the region’s cultural and historical heritage—that were censored, neglected, whitewashed, and even destroyed. Our efforts have borne fruit with the ¡Murales Rebeldes! L.A. Chicana/o Murals under Siege exhibition—on view at LA Plaza until February 27, 2018—and companion publication; the installation of Chicana muralist Barbara Carrasco’s censored 1981 mural L.A. History: A Mexican Perspective at Los Angeles’s Union Station (September 29–October 22, 2017); and a designated website, www.muralesrebeldes.org.

California Historical Society

History Keepers and LA as Subject A significant component of CHS/Los Angeles is a robust partnership with LA as Subject, a research alliance dedicated to preserving and improving access to the archival material of Los Angeles history. Since summer 2015, CHS has staged History Keepers, an exhibition series showcasing items from the collections of LA as Subject members. These annual exhibitions are hosted at El Pueblo de Los Ángeles Historical Monument, where tens of thousands of people visit each year. CHS also participates in the LA as Subject Archives Bazaar, a day-long gathering for history aficionados, now in its twelfth year, held at the University of Southern California.

G R O W I N G O U R S TAT E W I D E I M PAC T In addition to its return to Los Angeles, the California Historical Society invested in multiple efforts to expand its statewide impact.

California Historical Society Digital Library For almost 150 years, CHS has stewarded one of the Golden State’s most important research collections on California history. In fall 2016, with support from the California State Library and other generous donors, the organization launched its first state-of-the-art digital library, enabling residents throughout the state and around the world to access some of the treasures in the CHS Collections. CHS inaugurated its digital collection with Los Angeles: 1932–33. This special collection of photographs by Anton Wagner, a German geographer, illustrates Los Angeles between the 1920s and post–World War II booms. Wagner’s images of Depression-era Los Angeles are of great interest to researchers; they appear in his 1935 book Los Angeles: The Development, Life, and Form of the City of Two Million in Southern California, one of the formative studies on Los Angeles’s urban geography and the earliest published recognition of L.A. as a global city. The CHS Digital Library now contains over two dozen collections, from historic maps and photographs to wine labels.

California Historical Society

Traveling Exhibitions CHS’s traveling exhibition program has enabled its world-class presentations to reach new audiences. In 2016, with support from the Henry Mayo Newhall Foundation, I See Beauty in This Life: A Photographer Looks at 100 Years of Rural California— the inaugural exhibition of CHS’s Curating California series—traveled to Merced after stops in Santa Barbara and Riverside. The exhibition helped spur discussion about rural California and its impact on the state through the compelling photography of Lisa M. Hamilton alongside historic images from the CHS photography collection. Combined, they tell a complex—and sometimes humorous—story of the many different individual lives and landscapes comprising the vast mosaic that is the Golden State.

California Historical Society Book Award CHS and Heyday continued implementation of the annual California Historical Society Book Award, launched in 2013. In fall 2015, CHS/Heyday released Game Changers: Twelve Elections That Transformed California by Steve Swatt, Susie Swatt, Jeff Raimundo, and Rebecca LaVally, with book launches in Sacramento, San Francisco, and Los Angeles. Fall 2016 saw the publication of Alice: Memoirs of a Barbary Coast Prostitute by Ivy Anderson and Devon Angus.

E D U C AT I O N A L I N I T I AT I V E S Throughout its own history, the California Historical Society has worked with policymakers and educators to improve the teaching and learning of the history of the Golden State.

Phoebe Hearst Educational Fund In 2015, CHS launched the Phoebe Hear st Educational Fund to invest in new K-12 history education initiatives. Recognizing Hearst as a longtime education advocate and the driving force behind the success of the 1915 Worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fair, CHS enacted the Phoebe Hearst Educational Fund as part of its citywide leadership of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition centennial (PPIE100) celebration.

Passport to Success With additional support from PPIE100 Presenting Sponsor AT&T, and in partnership with the San Francisco Recreation and Parks Department, CHS created the Passport to Success program, connecting throughout the centennial year low-income San Francisco students who attended public after-school and summer programs with cultural organizations exploring the fairâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pioneering innovations and the ways in which technologies changed over the century.

History Play Date CHS further refined its outreach efforts to engage families with history through monthly programming focused on young families with children ages 5 and under. Operating under the History Play Date brand, CHS offered hands-on activities to kids, including

California Historical Society

thematic arts and crafts activities, live performances, and presentations from partner cultural institutions.

Teaching California In 2017, CHS’s increasing involvement with students and educators inspired the development—with UC Davis’s California HistorySocial Sciences Project (CHSSP)—of Teaching California, an online resource of instructional materials that support the state’s new History-Social Science Framework. Added to the state’s budget in June 2017 at the close of the 2016–2017 fiscal year, Teaching California will provide dynamic, expansive online curriculum that highlights primary source materials and draws from CHS’s vast archival resources and those of libraries across the state and nation.

THE CHS COLLECTIONS The California Historical Society is entrusted with the care of one of the world’s most important collections of historical materials about the Golden State. The diverse CHS Collections include books, pamphlets, manuscripts, photographs, printed ephemera, periodicals, posters, broadsides, maps, newspapers, artifacts, costumes, and artworks, including paintings, drawings, and lithographs. These millions of items, held in trust for the people of California—in San Francisco and at Los Angeles’s University of Southern California and the Autry National Center—are an important resource for local and international researchers as well as a range of media industries, including advertising and television.

North Baker Research Library The primary portal to the CHS Collections remains the North Baker Research Library, which is free and open to the public within our San Francisco headquarters. Over the past two years, CHS has boosted staffing in the library to increase our capacity to serve researchers. The CHS Collections are also increasingly being digitized for use in CHS’s digital publications and our new digital library.

Leadership In 2016, after a national search, CHS named a new Director of Library and Collections. Succeeding Mary Morganti, who had served in the role for over a decade, Chela Scott Weber joined CHS from New York University, where most recently she was Head, Archival Collections Management in the Division of Libraries.

Photographs and ephemera in the CHS Collections include (top) Carruthers Studio’s undated image of a man and woman on a tandem bicycle and (bottom) the 1955 Official Program for a Los Angeles vs. San Francisco baseball game in Wrigley Field, Los Angeles.

C A L I F O R N I A’ S C O M P L E X H I S T O R Y Addressing California’s complex history, particularly its diversity, is at the core of the California Historical Society’s work. Through public exhibitions, digital publications, and public programming, over the past two years CHS has explored some of the most challenging issues in California’s past, many of them with national and international implications.

Shaping Our History Examples of CHS’s public history events that explored significant episodes in the state’s history are the mass killing of California Indians during the late 1800s; the seventy-fifth anniversary of the signing of Executive Order 9066, which launched the Japanese incarceration program in America during World War II; the disappearance of Chicana/o murals in Southern California through whitewashing, censoring, and destruction; the ongoing legacy of the Black Panther Party; and the complicated gender dynamics of the hippie counterculture. Such explorations challenge audiences to consider how history shapes our present and our future and illuminates history’s relevance to Californians of all ages.
