Charlotte Partridge was the director of the Layton Art School, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. This collection generally illustrates more about her interest in art activities than about her actual role in events or organizations. Personal papers and correspondence are almost non-existent, and much of the material came from mass mailings. The collection is organized in three series: education, museums, and organizations. Within each series, materials are alphabetically arranged by folder title and chronologically within folders. Researchers interested in museum or education associations should look in the organizations series.
