Art museum tours state

The KU Traveling Art Museum is bringing the mountain to Mohammed, according to Nancy Chambers, curator of the exhibit.
Because of the program, people throughout the state have been able to view photographs, prints and textiles from the collections of the Helen Foresman Spencer Museum of Art without leaving their hometown, she said last week.
Chambers, who began her job with the University in October 1977, spent six months doing research and writing in preparation for the exhibit.
"It's been a real adventure," she said.
"Working with small towns has been fun."
THE INAUGURAL DISPLAY was "History of Printmaking." The current exhibit, which will tour the state until Oct. 18, will feature with the nine musees of Greek mythology.
The 7-year-old program is co-sponsored by the Spencer Museum and the Division of Continuing Education. Chambers' salary is paid by the University of Kansas Arts Office in a plate agency.
The exhibit is made up of six folding panels, weighing several hundred pounds
Chambers uses a trailer hooked to her car to move the exhibit from one two-week booking to the next. Although she tries to show exhibits in regional centers, traveling from west to east across the state, there are times when that has been impossible.

Last May, the exhibit was moved from western Kansas to Crown Center in Kansas City. Mo., for a meeting of the American football teams and then was moved back to Hays.
"There have been little hitches, but not serious," she said.
JAMES NABORS, director of art museum programs in continuing education, said the biggest expense of the program was transportation. More than 86,000 of last year's budget for the program was used for gasoline, oil and maintenance.
Chambers said she visited the community in which the exhibit would appear about a month before the show. While she is there, she discusses program possibilities with
In the month before the exhibit arrives, community organizers recruit musicians, singers or actors from the area to perform on stage. In the next two days arrives, Chambers remains in the community for the first three days, conducting the programs. A slide and tape unit also
Although the traveling museum's usual galleries are in banks, libraries and junior colleges, it has made a stop at the Federal Penitentiary in Leavenworth. It also will be displayed in the rotunda of the state capitol building for the first two weeks in February.

Recommendations for allocations to two groups not previously funded by the Student Senate and for a change in the revised University revenue code were made last night by members of the Senate Finance and Auditing Committee.
A $1,157.14 allocation was recommended to the University Dance Company for posters at New York City Hall.

An Ecology Club newsletter concerned with Kannas environmental issues began publication at the University of Kansas this spring. A contributor, Broger, a spokesman for the Ecology Club.
Grogger, Prairie Village junior, said recently the introductory issue of the newsletter, Kansas Environmental News, would be mailed free to those on the Ecology Club's mailing list, and probably would be distributed on campus.
The recommendation was $120 less than the group's original request of $1,271. 14.
Ecology Club starts newsletter on environment issues
Committee members also proposed a change in the revenue code which would result in the Dance Company's receiving approximately $1,096 next year.
Groger said the first biviewly issues of Kansas Environmental News would be small, but he hoped to expand the newsletter it had been in publication a few months.
"This first one's going to be real makeshift," Grogger said.
The newsletter will cover the activities of the Ecology Club and the record of the Kansas Legislature on environmental affairs articles and affairs articles on items related to energy.
The newsletter also will cover news stories such as developments in the construction of the Wolf Creek nuclear power plant near Burlington or the consideration of a new Kansas Legislature to make deposits for the beverage containers in Kansas.
Both the recommended allocations and the revised revenue code will go before the Senate for approval at its next meeting, Nov. 29.
Grogger said he hoped Kansas En-
vironmental News would eventually achieve
side deals.
The recommended allocation was $315 less than the group's original request of $875.
The change in the revenue code would mean shifting to the dance company three cents from $1.50 that Student Organizations deliver from the $11.0 student activity fee.
Members voted to allocate $30 to the KU Geophysical Society for office supplies, advertisement, postage, long-distance mailing journals, journals, a book case and a filing cabinet.
