A Glaze of Glory— the Artistry of Art Tile

Opening Reception Friday, January 20, 2012 6:00 pm–8:00 pm Reception admission free!

The AHC’s new exhibit “A Glaze of Glory—the Artistry of Art Tile”

opens with a special evening reception on Friday, January 20th, unveiling the rich variety of our collection of historic art tile. Numerous American tile companies are represented in the exhibit, including California’s Batchelder and Gladding McBean, Ohio’s American Encaustic

Tiling Company, and Pennsylvania’s Moravian Tileworks. Our collections also include tiles of European origin—beautiful examples from England, Spain and France. The exhibit will show the visual “feast of art” of the many tiles saved through the salvage efforts of our founders, Jerry Bosco and Ben Milligan. And we welcome back Ron Endlich, of Seattle’s Tile Antiques, as guest curator for this exhibit. Ron is a true tile historian and a prolific collector and some of his collection will be incorporated into the exhibit.

The history of tile dates back to the beginnings of human civilization, when Egyptians decorated their houses with blue glazed brick. By the twelfth century, decorative tiles were being produced in England, Spain, and Italy and used for large-scale architectural decoration.

The Dutch tile industry was well established by the fifteenth century and England and the Netherlands were exporting tile for residential use.

Tile making fell from fashion during the eighteenth century but the Gothic Revival movement triggered an artistically exuberant resurgence in interest during the nineteenth century. Tile manufacturing methods needed to be virtually re-created, but by 1900 more than 100 English

tile companies raced to keep up with the explosive demand. Tile was “durable,” “hygienic,” and “beautiful” and Victorian-era England couldn’t get enough of it.

Other countries, including the United States, began producing their own particular tastes of domestic art tile. Companies from Massachusetts to California pursued Victorian-era and then Arts and Crafts designs, all with color and ornamental designs of seemingly infinite themes and motifs—including Japanese and Classical subjects. Sophisticated innovations in style, color, design, and production techniques continued until the Great Depression opened in 1929. The challenged economy and changing tastes again saw a downfall of art tile from fashion.

But, beginning in the late twentieth century, art tile is indeed back—and it enjoys a continuing interest in what is again appreciated as “durable,” “hygienic” and “beautiful” as art tile is used for both practical and decorative purposes. Once again—we can’t get enough of it!

Celebrating Our Own HeritageBy Cathy Galbraith

I’ve always viewed a new year as a “fresh start,” an opportunity for resolutions and new initiatives. As 2012 rolls out, we remain committed to historic preservation’s

adage of “in with the old,” but that includes some new strategies and activities to preserve what’s not just old, but valued and venerable. One big highlight of 2012 is that the Bosco-Milligan Foundation will launch its Twenty-Fifth Year Anniversary in October 2012.

Every so often I stop and think…what if the BMF had never made it as an organization? There would be no Architectural Heritage Center, following the restoration of the Central Eastside’s oldest building that houses the Center. You are among the nearly 54,000 people who have joined us for 472 public programs, and 27 exhibits. You are likely among the 1,689 dedicated volunteers who have contributed an extraordinary 30,158 hours, just since the AHC’s 2005 opening—proving that historic preservation is most successful when it’s a community partnership. You have helped develop programs and exhibits, care for our collections of building artifacts, conduct neighborhood tours, and operate the AHC—manning the decks for every preservation advocacy issue, and truly everything we do! We’ve always said “without you, we’re history!” and we sincerely mean it.

In 2012 we’ll begin our own anniversary at the launch of the Eastside Portland Streetcar Loop; streetcars will begin carrying passengers up Grand Avenue in September as we open the

“Streetcars Build a City” exhibit. Stay with us as we participate in reaching the finish line of the new Portland Plan—yes, the Plan will get finished and the new Portland Comprehensive Plan will get underway. These public planning efforts will have impacts on our neighborhoods and historic buildings for decades to come—and we must get it right. The future of our historic resources depends on the collective efforts of all of us.

We’ll be undertaking an expansive study of seismic incentives around the country (with support from the National Trust for Historic Preservation), developing a set of Portland-appropriate incentives to help retain our historic building stock through the next “Big One.” We’ll also be completing some preventative seismic measures for our own collections of building artifacts (with support from the Oregon Museums grant program). Of course our Kitchen Revival Tour, Heritage Home Tour, new Historic Barns Tour, and annual Auction are up and coming…We look forward to your participation!

A Glance Back…By Fred Leeson

Even if your champagne has gone flat, let’s not forget 2011 just yet. It was a great year for the Bosco-Milligan Foundation on many fronts. Here are some achievements that stand out from my perspective:

Membership surpassed 1,000. This has been a long-time “goal” •and it was a thrill to achieve it. But the number itself has no intrinsic meaning. To become increasingly effective as an advocacy organization for historic preservation, we need to continue spreading our message and engaging new supporters.

Our public education programs exceeded their goals for the •year. Our popular new neighborhood walking tours were one key factor, but I think that the overall high quality of our programs and our presenters are responsible, as well. We also learned that week-day evenings are viable times for programs at the Architectural Heritage Center.

The 2011 Kitchen Revival Tour was the most successful •ever, with an excellent line-up of original and respectfully-renovated kitchens.

Our “Riches of a City” Heritage Auction was the most •successful in years. We happily returned to the Melody Ballroom, and positive changes in the Melody’s operations make it the likely auction venue in the years ahead.

Our Second Annual Heritage Home Tour, while marginally •lower in attendance this year, was a popular success with an outstanding line-up of superb houses.

As a result of several meetings, our staff and a dedicated •group of volunteers drafted a Platform for Preservation as part of the comprehensive Central City Plan for 2035. We will continue our advocacy efforts with city planning staff and City Council to encourage adoption of these important recommendations in the final plans.

As the year drew to a close, the Bosco-Milligan Board of •Directors completed a thorough and ambitious strategic plan that will help focus our work; it includes a matrix of projects that will guide us through the next several years. It was a thoughtful process that benefitted from the diligence and creativity of many people.

In her column, Cathy Galbraith gives you a preview of the year ahead. I’ll close by thanking our staff and dozens of volunteers who in 2011 made the AHC such a wonderful place to visit and enjoy. I expect nothing less in 2012. We all know Portland is a great place to live and work and raise a family. Our efforts to respect history and to preserve the man-made environment will help keep it that way.

A House of Stone for Dr. Mackenzie: Rebuilding Portland’s Architectural History

Saturday, January 28, 2012 10:00 am–11:30 am Members: $10 General Public: $18

The residence of Dr. Kenneth A.J. and Cora Mackenzie, now the William Temple House, has delighted observers with its intriguing design and exceptional craftsmanship ever since its completion in 1892. Acclaimed as a masterwork of Whidden and Lewis, this presentation makes the case that this Portland landmark was actually designed by another firm, McCaw and Martin.

Masters of the Richardsonian Romanesque, William F. McCaw and Richard H. Martin, Jr. are best known as architects of Portland’s Dekum Building, the Armory (now the Gerding Theater), the First Presbyterian Church, and the University of Portland’s West Hall. They were briefly associated with architect F. Manson White, and who designed what among the three is confused in the historical record. Shaping a new history is made easier by the increasing availability of digitized resources.

What does the detective work reveal? Join us as Ed Teague, head of the Architecture and Allied Arts Library at the University of Oregon provides an entertaining look at Portland’s past while we explore the lives and work of McCaw, Martin, and White.

Pre-registration is strongly suggested—visit us online at www.VisitAHC.org or use the enclosed registration form.

Real Estate Development and the Re-Shaping of Old Portland

Saturday, January 21, 2012 10:00 am–11:30 am Members: $10 General Public: $18

Focusing on the early days of Portland, Dr. Tracy Prince, author of Portland’s Goose Hollow, will use a slide show of historic photos and maps to demonstrate how dramatically different the terrain of Old Portland (the west side—from the Willamette River to the West Hills) was from today’s terrain. This changed terrain includes: building the Great Plank Road which ran through the narrow and dark Tanner Creek Canyon; burying Tanner Creek, Johnson Creek, and Balch Creek; filling Couch Lake and Guild’s Lake; filling the 20-block long, 50-feet deep Tanner Creek Gulch; building streets upon 30-50 foot pilings in areas that today’s residents would describe as flatlands; and 1870s Oregonian stories about 25-foot deep cuts required when B Street (Burnside) was graded beyond the gulch. Such incredible alterations to Portland’s natural landscape were seen as necessary for growing a young frontier city and to accommodate real estate development.

The Stained Glass of the Povey Brothers

Saturday, February 4, 2012 10:00 am–11:30 amMembers: $10 General Public: $18

The Povey Brothers Beveled and Stained Glass Window Studio operated in Portland from 1888 to 1926. Today, beautiful windows are scattered throughout the city and state, adding wonderful flourishes to both homes and churches. The Povey name is recognized for design excellence and quality craftsmanship and their work was a major influence on Jerry Bosco and Ben Milligan. Have you seen what you think might be a Povey window? Or perhaps you already

own one? Either way, don’t miss this opportunity to learn more about Portland’s preeminent makers of stained glass. Presenter David Schlicker has operated a stained glass studio in Portland since 1975 and has repaired and restored many Povey windows. As David shares his collection of slides documenting the Povey’s contribution to our history, he’ll also shed light on the specific characteristics and design elements that will help you identify potential Povey Brothers pieces.

Railroad Architecture and the Northwest: Economics, Ethos, and Culture

Saturday, February 18, 2012 10:00 am–11:30 am Members: $10 General Public: $18

Railroads were one of the driving forces in the settlement and urbanization of the United States. Through their station buildings, they left a profound architectural legacy on the country. From humble wooden depots that pioneered the concept of franchise architecture to the grand urban depots displaying the power of the country’s new “millionaire society,” these structures embody the story of America’s Gilded Age. Portland and the Pacific Northwest region include a number of fine examples of these structures, and collectively contribute to the understanding of our region’s past.

Alexander B. Craghead will share his approach to railroad architecture as cultural history. Alex is a Portland-based writer and photographer whose work has most recently appeared in the National Railroad Historical Society Bulletin and Trains Magazine. You will also learn about the restoration work of two of the region’s grand urban stations with ties to important works of Italian architecture, as well as the miraculous, eleventh hour rescue of the oldest depot in Oregon. Culminating the presentation is a unique look at the history of Portland’s landmark Union Station of 1896. The presentation is supported by numerous photographs and illustrations, including the depot photographs of award winning photographer Joel Jensen.


The History of American Art Tile


In a companion program to our exhibit “A Glaze of Glory—the Artistry of Art Tile,” guest Curator Ron Endlich will present “The History of American Art Tile” at the AHC. Ron has collected tile for nearly two decades and developed nationally recognized expertise about the origins of American tile, its artisanship, and the multitude of early manufacturers. Specializing in American decorative tile, he regularly lectures at arts shows throughout the Northwest. Ron operates Tile Antiques, based in Seattle and has been known to travel near and far to track down a special tile to add to his collection. He has worked with us over many years and provided scores of hours of expertise to coordinate the professional inventory of our own collection of historic tile. Program attendees are welcome to bring in any of your own tile, for Ron’s review and answers to your questions, to share with the entire group.

Northwest Portland Sacred Spaces: Walking Tour


In the late 19th century Northwest Portland was the most prestigious neighborhood in the city. Today, numerous well-preserved historic residences and apartment buildings contribute

to the distinctive character of the community. Situated in close proximity in this high-density area are several worship spaces built during the Portland boom years of 1890 to 1930. We’ll visit four of these sacred spaces and learn about the history and architecture of each: Trinity Episcopal Cathedral, St Mary’s Roman Catholic Cathedral, the former First Christian Science Church and Temple Beth-Israel. Participants will be invited to meet after the tour at a local restaurant. Your guides, Eric Wheeler and Pamela Reeves, are both members of the AHC’s Education Committee and bring a wealth of experience to this program. Eric, an architectural historian, discovered the Pacific Northwest several years ago and now spends the “winter months” exploring the captivating built environment of Portland. Pamela has more than 20 years experience managing historic and modern commercial buildings and has led several of our recent walking tours.

Shake, Rattle and Roll—Getting your house ready for the “Big One!”

Saturday, March 10, 2012 10:00 am–12:00 pm Members: $8 General Public: $15

The Pacific Northwest and the Portland area are no strangers to the threat of impending earthquakes and this is made all-too-clear when an earthquake devastates some part of the world—whether near or far. The potential for the “Big One” has generated considerable press and anxiety, especially in recent years. So—what are Portland-area homeowners to do, to increase the chances that your house will survive? Our encore program

“Shake, Rattle and Roll” is just the thing to help you answer that question. This new-and-updated program will share the latest information and advice, brought to you by experts in the field.

Scott Burns, Professor of Geology at PSU, is the guy who is on every local newscast following an earthquake. Scott will explain the complex seismic fault lines that run through the Portland area and surroundings, and how buildings behave in an earthquake. Steve Gemmell, owner of Earthquake Tech, will describe the step-by-step procedure for bolting your house and other improvements that can help your house ride the big one. Mark Strauss, independent agent with Leonard Adams Insurance, will cover earthquake options for homeowners. DON’T MISS this opportunity to learn how to prepare for an earthquake emergency and make certain that your house is as safe as it can be for you and your family.


Hard-Hat Tour: The Salvation Army’s “Industrial Home” Building

Saturday, March 3, 2012 1:00 pm–3:30 pm Members: $10 General Public: $15

Location: 200 SE Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. (at SE Ash Street)

The Salvation Army is a venerable national institution, serving people in need for more than a century. Throughout the US (and Portland) there are many fine buildings that housed their programs and provided housing. In Portland’s Central Eastside, the Salvation Army’s “Industrial Home” building will be getting a new lease on life, with an adaptive re-use project by Venerable Properties. This 26,000 square foot structure, built in 1893 for a hay and feed business, was acquired by the Salvation Army in 1913. The building was doubled in size in 1930, as part of architect Frederick Manson White’s “face lift”

of the building’s entire façade.

The “Industrial home” model provided jobs and housing for the homeless under one roof. Workers collected and repaired second-hand goods and a thrift-store

sold those goods to the public. The building included a workers dormitory, dining facilities, and a chapel—keeping with the Salvation Army’s focus on the “whole person.”

Several remodels removed or concealed many of the building’s historic features, but that’s about to change. This is your chance to see the transformation in progress, as original materials are uncovered and historic features are wonderfully restored. The afternoon program will cover the project’s vision, building history, and a top to bottom tour. Our own Education Committee Chair, Morgen Young, will place the Industrial Home building in context with Portland’s other Salvation Army facilities.

Midwest and spread across the U.S., influencing a generation of architects around the world. During the height of its popularity, between 1910 and 1930, several regional architects, applied design principles first articulated by Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright in Chicago, to their own communities and clients in the Pacific Northwest. This presentation will highlight the Prairie Style buildings in Portland and explore the similarities and differences with other regional manifestations of the Prairie School. Architectural historian, tour guide, and AHC Education Committee member Eric Wheeler has studied the Prairie School for several years, most recently connecting the dots between Prairie School architects that worked both in the Midwest and in the Portland area.

Portland Mayoral and City Council Races: Forums on Historic Preservation and Urban Design in Portland Free to All Attendees!

Dates: Tuesday, February 21st—Amanda Fritz, Mary Nolan and Teressa Raiford Council seat: hosted at Architectural Heritage Center (701 SE Grand Avenue); 6:30–8:30 PM

Tuesday, March 6th—Steve Novick, Jeri Williams and Mark White Council seat: hosted at AIA/Portland offices (403 NW 11th); 6:30–8:30 PM

Wednesday, March 21st—Mayoral candidates Elaine Brady, Charlie Hales, and Jefferson Smith: hosted by HPLO at White Stag Block (70 NW Couch); 6:00–8:00 PM

Portland City Council election campaigns for Mayor and two Council seats are well underway, with candidates who have filed and are thoughtfully campaigning for your vote. This election cycle, we believe that the future of historic preservation and urban design in Portland are significant election issues. What better way to determine the depth and breadth of each candidate’s commitment to Portland’s heritage than to ask the candidates themselves? As a nonprofit, we can’t participate in the races of particular candidates, but we can provide important and vital information on issues related to our mission of historic preservation education and advocacy.

Three organizations—the Bosco-Milligan Foundation/Architectural Heritage Center (that’s us), AIA/Portland-Oregon, and the Historic Preservation League of Oregon have come together to coordinate and host three separate forums, one for the Mayoral race, and two for the City Council races. Please check our website (www.VisitAHC.org) and look for our biweekly enews for any updates. Note: if you are not receiving our enews, it’s because we don’t have your current email address.

Memories of Our Founders, Jerry Bosco and Ben Milligan

“Definitely free spirits—Jerry with his devotion to art and teaching

at Franklin High School, and Benny with his glass work and teaching at PSU. Their love of the Victorian Era saved many a building in the Portland area. They recreated interior appointments and cared very much for exact details. They converted the old Sweet Tibby Dunbar restaurant next to Benson High School into a wonderful, warm eating establishment, as well as Digger O’Dell’s on SE Grand. Their dreams, and love of art and architecture, live on through this organization.” —Dr. Mary Ann Humphrey-Keever

Do you have a recollection of Jerry or Ben that you would like to share for publication or for our archives? Please contact Holly Chamberlain at [email protected] or 503.231.7264.
