From Our Collection to Yours Sale
Beginning April 8th at Baker Arts Center and continuing through the 24th was a unique opportunity to purchase a piece of Baker Arts and a piece of history. In an effort to streamline the collection, clear up storage, and raise funds to acquire new pieces, the Foundation sold select works from its Permanent Collection.
Approximately 100 pieces, removed from the Collection, by several different artists were up for grabs during the sale. All of the works were framed and ready for display.

RECENT EXHIBIT
3rd Bi-Annual Community Art Show
With the Tin Man cheerfully greeting everyone at the West entrance, this year’s Community Art Exhibit encompassed a wide variety of styles and artist’s media. Paintings, drawings, prints, photographs, ceramics, bronzes, plaster, carved wood, a painted gourd, mosaic chairs, dolls, blown glass, metal scraps, and a nostalgic bell were all in the gallery for everyone to enjoy. These wonderful works were shared by area individuals from their private collections. They were collected from far and wide, all over the world.
Not only a community show-and-tell, the exhibit also served as a fundraiser for the Center, as lenders made donations for display space. Baker Arts Foundation would like to extend a special thank you to the kind supporters who lent their special items. Proceeds from the exhibit will be used to support, and acquire future artwork for the Center’s Permanent Collection.
