HENRY ARCHITECTURE, PART 1: 1926 CONSTRUCTION
#AtTheHenry
Did you know the Henry Art Gallery is the first public art museum in the state of Washington? In 1926, Seattle businessman Horace C. Henry donated a prominent collection and the necessary funding to construct a museum on the University of Washington campus. Mr. Henry and the University of Washington selected the well-known Seattle-based architect, Carl F. Gould of the architectural partnership Bebb and Gould to build the Henry Art Gallery.
This video is part of a video series highlighting the museum’s permanent collection and architecture. Visitors to the Henry can quickly and easily access the videos through their mobile devices by scanning QR codes printed on the museum’s wall labels or on YouTube. The video series is a collaborative project between the Henry and Solstream Media.
