According to
a History of the Albany Institute, the
Society for the Promotion of Agriculture, Arts and Manufactures
was founded in 1791 as a learned society; in 1797 the Society moved to
Albany; in 1804, it changed its name to the
Society for the Promotion of Useful Arts (SPUA), continuing to
emphasize agricultural achievements;
in 1819, State Board of Agriculture was established, obviating the role of
the SPUA, which then turned its attention to mineralogy, astronomy and
geography;
According to a History of the Albany Institute, in 1824, the SPUA ceased its activities as a learned society when it merged with the Albany Lyceum of Natural History (a museum founded in 1823) to become the Albany Institute, a museum that exists to the present day. |
