WAR DRAWINGS BY VERNON HOWE BAILEY

Abstract

Mr. Hunter, who is an acknowledged authority on the subject, will secure a group of wall hangings covering all the important periods of tapestry weaving. Loans for this exhibit will be made from the most important collections in the United States, with which Mr. Hunter has had long familiarity. The Museum is desirous of securing locally owned tapestries to include in this exhibit and Mr. Hunter will spend the week of April 1st, in Detroit, with a view of examining tapestries in Detroit collections suitable for inclusion in the exhibit. The Museum will greatly appreciate it if those who own important hangings of this nature will advise the Director of their willingness to co-operate. An important feature of Mr. Hunter's work will be his Lecture Promenades , similar to those which he has given in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, for a number of years. He will give daily talks on the exhibition to study clubs, teachers, classes of school children, art students and any other groups of individuals who wish to hear him. These gallery talks will be free to the public, but it will be necessary to 'phone the Director for an appointment.
