Jannes Library: Kansas City Art Institute

ONE YEAR LATER - The New York Times takes a look at how artists have reacted to the past year... "The questions we asked them are ones you may be asking yourself: Did you make anything that mattered? Who and what comforted you? Which moments will you remember? Which ideas would you like to forget? What would a do-over look like? And what’s still on your to-do list as normal comes into focus?"

FANTASTIC news! Jannes Library will partner with the Nelson's Spencer Art Reference Library and with St. Louis Public Library on a wonderful project funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities. We will create a publicly accessible database of information on Missouri artists active from 1821 through 1951. Kudos to Nelson-Atkins staff for spearheading this project. Watch this page for progress reports.
