May 5, 2018 - August 26, 2018
Rosa Bonheur Chamois Mother and Baby

The 20th Anniversary of Collectors Circle is an occasion to celebrate the accomplishments of the past and build enthusiasm for the future. This exhibit highlights works from the Museum’s collection that were purchased by Collectors Circle over the last two decades. Collectors Circle is a membership level of the Museum, which annually supports art acquisitions for the Permanent Collection. In the last 20 years, this membership level has been responsible for bringing 95 works to the Museum from great classic wildlife art masters, like John James Audubon, to newer emerging wildlife artists, such as Emily Lamb.
