The Burchfield Penney Art Center is a place we have been wanting to visit for a long time. Home to the largest collection of paintings by Charles Burchfield, they had a special exhibit on of his landscapes, many of them borrowed from other museums for this show. He is one of the greatest American painters of the 20th C.

This four part series explores the many facets of art collecting from the psychology of why we collect to the nuts and bolts of building and managing a personal collection. Panel discussions will include collectors, artists, museum staff and other professionals in the local art market.
