Q: What does the permanent collection of our gallery -- or another gallery where you live or have visited -- mean to you?

To me it means a preservation of our visual history and cultural identity for generations to come!
The permanent collection of art in a person's community gallery is a resource for the city, and a legacy for the future. it is like a nest egg, to be nurtured and cherished.

Permanent collections declare that a community cares about more than the grunt and groan of commerce - that it also values non-material things like inquiry and discourse, history and beauty. Art collections celebrate the soul of a community.
