Museum of Friends needs your help!
The first step is to make an audio tour of 120 selected and curated pieces from the collection, followed by the archiving of the rest of the collection. In this way Brendt and Maria’s compelling stories of their friendships with the artists will be documented and shared. The legacy of these artists and their art needs to be preserved as part of the story of modern art in America and the unknown art history of southern Colorado.
The Museum of Friends is seeking $6,500 to complete this project, which includes audio equipment, a 5-year subscription for the platform to launch the tour, a paid internship to complete archiving of over 1000 pieces, and ongoing technical expertise. Valarie is coordinating the project and questions may be addressed to her through the Museum of Friends at the MoF website: www.museumoffriends.org.
