The bulk of this material falls into the first series of special exhibitions, an active series. The series on Missouri exhibition and Local Artists' Groups are both inactive. The special exhibition series documents the role of the Registrar's office in the organization of temporary exhibitions and includes such information as shipping arrangements, loan forms, condition reports, conservation treatment, insurance coverage, etc. The Missouri exhibitions series contains information on the 4th through the 20th Annual Missouri exhibitions and includes a card file of participating artists. The Local Artists' Groups series documents the exhibition scheduling of 25 local organizations maintaining an affiliation with the museum.
