This is it! We are inviting you to set sail with us at this year’s gala “Come Sail Away” where we will be Reelin’ in the Years and Reminiscing about how far we’ve come at this Yacht Rock themed gala featuring Monsters of Yacht.

There are many reasons to invest in the Museum’s future and support our Annual Gala.  We have exciting exhibits coming up, including a Howard Finster exhibit entitled “Finster’s Sacred Art”.   We educate the children of our community via our 8 educational trunks and summer camps reaching 10,000 students annually.  We are the home base of cultural and arts activity in our community; hosting art classes, concerts, and regional history-based programming, including Music Under the Stars, History Happy Hour, Coffee with a Curator, and our Guest Artist Series.  We accomplish all of this with your support!

We invite you to join us as a sponsor on Saturday, January 14th, 2023, as we Ride Like the Wind into our futures.

When she moved back permanently, she decided to make Tennessee her home and met the love of her life while going to school for Art in Chattanooga.  Barbara’s influences are: art nature, reading, travel, poetry, sacred texts, going to galleries, color, meditation, music, dreams, and the simple beauty of the earth to name a few.  Barbara’s specialties include acrylics, mixed media, fabric crafts, collage, watercolor, pen & ink, paper crafts and murals. “What the Angel Saw” was created as part of her first solo art show with a focus on mental health.
