The Museum has a collection of the best WEB Starkweather paintings anywhere and we loved the facility and staff.

Not a look to view, not a huge selection, but interesting. It's good to spend some time to view works of art, but don't expect much as the selection isn't there. Wait until a traveling exhibit is here.

It has about eight to ten venues. Magnificent glass display upstairs, Large main showing area, plus other displays scattered around the large museum. Curator is very proactive, constantly bringing in ground-breaking events that encourage local participation among the established artists.
