A Sneak Peek of the Historic Woodstock Art Colony/Arthur A. Anderson Collection and Exhibition

Huxley Theater
Free

Long before the 1969 music festival, Woodstock was home to an art colony that was founded in 1902 and is still flourishing today. The remarkable range of work produced there has been the focus of collector Arthur Anderson for three decades. He recently donated his entire collection, some 1,500 objects by 170 artists, to the State Museum. Join Senior Historian and Museum Curator of Art and Culture Karen Quinn for a sneak peek of both the collection and the forthcoming exhibition opening in November.

This program includes a 20-minute talk followed by brief Q&A. Participants are welcomed to bring their lunches.
