VMNH ANNUAL REPORT
From the Chairman and President Moving Forward I’ve had the privilege of serving as chair of the VMNH Board of Trustees for Fiscal Year 2011. Even through difficult economic times, VMNH has continued to move forward. VMNH is blessed to have very capable staff, as well as a committed and supportive Board of Trustees. Under Dr. Keiper’s leadership, VMNH’s research and collections professionals have made advancements in their respective fields, which continues to help set VMNH apart from many museums of similar or larger size. Through the most generous gift from the T. Marshall Hahn family and the hard work of our staff, the Hahn Hall of Biodiversity was opened during 2010. Other temporary exhibits were also displayed during 2011, which led to additional patrons from 40 states and
8 countries coming to VMNH during the last year. VMNH was reaccredited by the American Association of Museums in December 2010. Less than 5% of U.S. museums receive this designation. We have also worked with the VMNH Foundation Board of Directors to move our fund raising relationship forward and create a collaborative environment, which will help solidify the future of VMNH both regionally and around the Commonwealth. Also, as VMNH moves forward to 2012, a terrific slate of new officers of the Board of Trustees, in conjunction with Dr. Keiper and the staff, are set to take VMNH even further.

Chairman, VMNH Board of Trustees
New Heights Fiscal year 2011 saw many great accomplishments for the Virginia Museum of Natural History Foundation, with tremendous support for a variety of new exhibits, programs, and events. The museum celebrated the opening of the new Hooker Furniture Discovery Reef, providing a hands-on, interactive play and discovery area for children. This project was made possible by a generous donation from the Charity League of Martinsville-Henry County, building on the existing naming support from the Hooker Furniture Corporation. The museum also celebrated the opening of the Hahn Hall of Biodiversity, the museum’s newest permanent exhibit. This spectacular new exhibition explores the concept of biodiversity through dozens of African wildlife specimens, as well as interactive elements. Dr. T. Marshall Hahn, Jr., president emeritus of Virginia Tech, provided financial support and donated
dozens of African wildlife specimens from his personal collection to the museum for use in the exhibit. In addition to providing support for new exhibits, the VMNH Foundation hosted its 24th annual Thomas Jefferson Awards dinner and ceremony on April 8 at the museum, with nearly 150 guests on hand. Dr. Douglas Owsley, division head for Physical Anthropology at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History, served as keynote speaker at the event. With additional grants and support for summer camps, educational programs, future new exhibit galleries, and much more, the VMNH Foundation will continue to work with museum staff and trustees to build on recent successes and reach new heights.

From the Director
Shaping the Future During this past fiscal year, we witnessed a perfect example of why museum collections are a necessity in our society. Dr. Judith Winston, VMNH Curator of Marine Biology, coauthored a paper that compared recently collected Antarctic bryozoans, or moss animals, to specimens obtained a century ago by the explorer Captain Robert Falcon Scott. Bryozoans grow like small corals on hard substrates such as rocks, and as they grow form rings inside their bodies in a way similar to tree trunks. By measuring the size of the growth rings in the older museum specimens and comparing them to new specimens, Dr. Winston’s team documented increasing ring size in modern versus old specimens. This shows accelerated growth in recent decades. The significance of this find is the connection to more carbon in our atmosphere that is being absorbed by the growing bryozoan colonies. In other words, the study became an indirect measure of a changing atmosphere over time. As our curators collect new materials, they are stored in our
museum and made available to scientists of the future. As the collections grow, VMNH will prosper and maintain a vital link to our natural resources of the past. We live in a changing world, with a changing atmosphere, a growing human population 7 billion strong, and increasing stress on our natural resources. Natural history museums are a key to developing plans for the long-term sustainability of our presence on Earth. The 10+ million specimens in the VMNH collections are irreplaceable treasures for all humankind.

VMNH Highlights... As the state museum of natural history serving the entire Commonwealth, the Virginia Museum of Natural History hosts award-winning exhibits, ground-breaking scientific research and collections, and innovative educational programs both at the museum and through outreach programs statewide. As we approach the 5–year anniversary in our new facility in March 2012, we continue to develop new exhibits, programs, and global scientific research collaborations. Below are just a few of the museum’s major accomplishments over the past fiscal year. As you read about these important accomplishments and milestones, we hope you will consider supporting the museum now and in the future. We look forward to seeing you at the museum in 2012 and beyond! • The museum earned re-accreditation from the American Association of Museums, a distinction earned by fewer than 5% of museums across the U.S., in 2010. • The Radford University Museum of the Earth Sciences became an Affiliate of the Virginia Museum of Natural History in 2011. The VMNH affiliation program further advances the museum’s mission as the state museum of natural history for Virginia, serving all citizens of the Commonwealth.
Education • The Museum’s education and public programs continue to reach more students, teachers, and museum-goers. In 2010–2011, 844 educational programs reached 18,467 people. Education staff served 45 school divisions with 267 programs at the museum and with 577 programs through outreach offices in Martinsville, Charlottesville, and Newport News. • For the first time in its 15-year history, four Virginia Science Standards Institutes were held and graduate credit was available through Virginia Commonwealth University School of Education. The
institutes were held at Westmoreland, Twin Lakes, and Hungry Mother state parks. Forty-four fourth and fifth grade teachers from across Virginia participated in this week-long intensive experience aimed at increasing teacher confidence and supporting the Virginia Standards of Learning. The next generation of the VSSI for 2011 will be the Virginia Science Institutes for STEM Education (VSISE). VSISE will consist of six-day summer learning experiences designed to support the implementation of the Science Standards of Learning and STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) education. Four week-long institutes will be held in July and August. • VMNH hosted the fourth museum fieldtrip for the 2011 Hollins Elementary Science Institute for Teachers (HESIT). This professional development institute is designed for elementary teachers sponsored by Hollins University and the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia through a federal Improving Teacher Quality grant. Led by Drs. Casey and Beard, participants toured the museum and went on a Piedmont geology fieldtrip where participants had the opportunity to collect classroom samples of igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks. Thirty teachers in partnering school divisions and a private school teacher in the region were selected to participate. Partnering school divisions include: Roanoke and Salem cities, and Roanoke, Botetourt, Floyd, Franklin, Montgomery, Henry, and Craig counties. • Outreach educational programming now extends into the classrooms of Eastern Virginia. The Eastern Virginia Outreach office is led by Susan Walton. Walton, a resident of Newport News, has been recognized as a top educator in the Commonwealth throughout her teaching career of more than 30 years. Areas now served include the counties of Charles City, Gloucester, Isle of Wight, James City, King and Queen, Mathews, Middlesex,
VMNH Highlights Continued... New Kent, Northampton, Southampton and York, along with the cities of Hampton, Newport News, Poquoson, Williamsburg, Virginia Beach, Suffolk, Norfolk, Portsmouth, and Chesapeake. • During Earth Day at VMNH, partnering community organizations conducted programs for students during this conference-style event. Participants included the Southwestern Piedmont Master Naturalists, the Dan River Basin Association, the Master Gardeners, and the US Army Corps of Engineers. The keynote speaker was Astronaut Patrick G. Forriester who talked about his experiences working with NASA. Over 200 students from Patrick Henry Elementary, Martinsville Middle School, and Albert Harris Elementary participated in this event. • The 2010 Summer Adventure Camps were offered for various age groups ranging from three to 10 years of age. Before and after care as well as on-site meal options were utilized by campers. Camps included: Dinosaur Adventures, Under the Sea, Great Sense of Nature, Scrumdidlyumpious Art, and Marvelous Messes. • From its inception, VMNH has been involved in the Virginia Master Naturalist Executive and Steering committees. Staff members are currently serving in leadership roles in local chapters in the Charlottesville, Hampton and Martinsville areas. The Southwestern Piedmont Chapter held its fourth member training in the fall of 2010. Along with five other natural resources agencies, VMNH renewed its commitment to the program. Volunteers with the local chapter made significant contributions to the VMNH in 2010. The Southwestern Piedmont Chapter reported 490 hours (valued at $10,256) of volunteer time at the museum, including interpretive programs, research assistance to museum scientists, and assistance with museum collections. • VMNH hosted a Flying WILD Workshop on December 4 led by Suzie Gilley, Wildlife
Education Coordinator/Project WILD Coordinator with the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries. Twenty participants including VMNH educators, master naturalists, and area educators took part in the training that included both educator and train-the-trainer sessions. • VMNH Volunteer Interpreters (VI) elected officers in late 2010. Officers include: Aileen Wilson, president; Linda Hill, vice president; and, Evalyn Chapman, secretary. • Education staff participated in several professional development opportunities including Great Science for Girls training with ongoing web casts, After-school Science Plus, Growing Up Wild workshop sponsored by Project Wild, and Sharing Nature Workshop. Staff members were trained in First Aid and became certified. Glenda Hairston, VMNH outof-school education coordinator and Dr. Casey attended the Great Science for Girls Training Institute in Philadelphia, immediately followed by the Virginia Association of Science Teachers annual professional development institute in Hampton. Hairston and Casey represent the museum with GSG for MHC After 3. Hairston, Casey, and Susan Walton, eastern Virginia outreach education coordinator staffed a VMNH outreach education booth at the institute and Casey gave three presentations on VMNH education programs. Other professional development conferences, institutes, and publications included the Virginia Science Education Leadership Association Annual and Strategic Planning meetings; the Virginia Association of Science Teachers Professional Development Institute; and editorial review board of the Journal of Virginia Science Education. • The Martinsville-Henry County Community Nature Initiative (MHC CNI), funded by The Harvest Foundation of the Piedmont, is in now in its third year of providing children and adults an interactive approach to outdoor
VMNH Highlights Continued... learning. MHC CNI complements the content students receive in traditional classrooms in the Martinsville and Henry County school systems. MHC CNI, in coordination with the Henry County Parks and Recreation, hosted the second annual Piedmont Kite Festival was held at Jack Dalton Park on March 12 with 750 visitors. The MHC CNI conducted the second annual Earth Week Celebration April 15 – 23. We partnered with over a dozen organizations in the area to coordinate this week long event to bring the community together to celebrate the environment. • Over the weekend of February 18–20, Tamara Poles and Dr. Casey led an enthusiastic group of seven local teachers in developing a curriculum guide that will support teachers in conducting more science-related activities with students outdoors. Once completed, the guide will be available for download on the VMNH website. • VMNH education staff and Joseph Cornell’s Sharing Nature Worldwide teamed up to offer a first-of-its-kind professional development opportunity. Designed for teachers, environmental educators and community leaders, Virginia Institute for Natural Youth Leadership (VINYL) combined Sharing Nature activities and youth leadership development strategies and feature local outdoor venues. • VMNH continues to be committed to the Martinsville/Henry County After 3 program by providing academic programming for four after-school sites including Boys and Girls Club of Martinsville/Henry County, Collinsville YMCA, Bassett Community Center, and Fieldale Community Center. During the month of July, VMNH educators led five week-long summer camps for each of the MHC After 3 sites. After the students went back to school, VMNH educators brought programming to the after school sites. On November 12, a culminating event for the Boys and Girls Club Teen Center and
their parents was held at the museum. Students displayed projects they created during fall programs. • The number of schools taking part in the Partners in Academic Excellence increased in 2010-2011. Education staff visited Parent/Teacher meetings in the beginning of the school year to introduce programming availability. Patrick Henry Elementary and John Redd Smith Elementary schools continue their partnership by providing monthly programs to each grade level. New school partners include Stanleytown Elementary, Carver Elementary and Collinsville Primary. By the end of the current school year, VMNH educators had delivered 313 outreach programs to kindergarten through fifth-grade students at these Martinsville – Henry County Public Schools.
Research and Collections • Excavations by VMNH scientists continued at the Carmel Church research site in Caroline County, Virginia, near Richmond. The Carmel Church site is one of the densest concentrations of fossil bones east of the Mississippi River. The most exciting find in 2011 was a partial humerus (arm bone) from the giant bird Pelagornis, the first time this species has been reported from Carmel Church. Pelagornis is an example of a pseudodontorn, or false-toothed bird. Pseudodontorns are thought to be the largest known flying birds with a wingspan of over 6 m (20 feet), making them twice the size of the largest living birds. Other specimens collected included three lower jaws from baleen whales, the ear region from the baleen whale Diorocetus, a sea turtle humerus, and a 50-million-year-old vertebra from the giant sea snake Paleophis. • VMNH Curator Dr. Judith Winston, together with an international team of scientists, recently found the first conclusive evidence of increased carbon uptake and storage by Antarctic marine
VMNH Highlights Continued... life. The scientists compared recently collected colonies of bryozoans –– seabed filter-feeding animals that look like branching twigs –– with creatures collected 100 years ago by Antarctic explorer Captain Robert Falcon Scott. Dr. Winston was also one of 23 scientists nationwide to be part in a recent expedition to survey the biodiversity of the Gulf of Mexico’s ocean floor. The expedition was funded by BP through the Florida Institute of Oceanography in the wake of the BP oil spill. • VMNH Curator Dr. Richard Hoffman co-authored an article describing a new species of milliped (more commonly known as a millipede, or thousand legger) discovered in the rainforest of Colombia. Hoffman worked with Professor Eduardo Florez and graduate student Daniela Martinez, both at the Universidad Nacional de Colombia, on the species identification and accompanying international journal article.
Exhibits • The museum hosted the special exhibits Eyes on Earth, Animal Secrets, Living off the Land, and Documenting Diversity. • The museum had a variety of exhibits and displays at remote locations throughout Virginia and beyond. Sites included the Virginia Living Museum, the Caroline County Visitor Center, the Danville Science Center, and more. • The museum celebrated the opening of the new Hahn Hall of Biodiversity, Hooker Furniture Discovery Reef, and Fossil Overlook exhibit areas. Museum staff continue to develop new and updated displays that further enhance visitors’ experiences.
Events • The museum was awarded a Distinguished Lecture Series program and accompanying educational programs from the Consortium for Ocean Leadership’s Deep Earth Academy. In addition to
a lecture by Dr. James Cowen of the University of Hawaii, Deep Earth Academy staff conducted school programs and teacher workshops at the museum. • The VMNH Foundation held its 24th annual Thomas Jefferson Awards dinner and ceremony on Friday, April 8 at the museum, with nearly 150 guests on hand. Dr. Douglas Owsley, division head for Physical Anthropology at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History, served as keynote speaker at the event.
Development • VMNH received a $5,000 grant award from the LEGO Children’s Fund in December 2010. The grant has enabled the museum to provide engaging activities to stimulate elementary school children and middle school youth of Martinsville and Henry County in the areas of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) through the after school Youth Empowered in Science (YES) program. Partnering providers include the Boys and Girls Club, Martinsville and Collinsville YMCA, and the MHC After 3 sites. • The museum received a $92,100 grant from AEP to help fund a new permanent watersheds and trout biology exhibit scheduled to open at the museum in 2013.
