Mark Waskow with his collection

“It has been my desire to have the process of collecting art live up to its potential as a creative act, much like the creation of art itself. I believe that visual art is part of a healthy emotional, conceptual, and cognitive ‘diet’ designed to foster mental sensitivity and cultural awareness. My goal for the collection is for it to be another good reason for people to come to Vermont and an opportunity for Vermont Artists to show their work in a museum setting.”
