INSPIRATIONS
Biennial Permanent Collection Exhibit
Curators: Sheila Mayville and Janet Smith
An inspiration is a force or influence on artists, writers or musicians stimulating Creativity and ideas.
In choosing the art for this Biennial Permanent Collection, the pieces were chosen not only for the artists’ inspirations to create them, but also the viewers’ inspirations that will stimulate their ideas, emotions and thoughts.
Sheila Mayville and Janet Smith, Curators
