Northwest artist suggestions

12.23.09

A few more suggestions on our post-it wall from museum visitors. I've added these to our Northwest artist list

  • Beautiful Angle (multiple votes!)
  • Ryan Hardesty
  • Victoria Haven
  • Mary Henry
  • Older works by Scott Fife
  • Jennifer Adams (photography)
  • A. Curtiss

Otherwise, someone posted a compliment to the museum ("I like the art here!)" and a couple of shout outs to Lincoln High Class of 2011. Someone also suggested the UPS Kayak Club--who knew they were all artists too!
