Adopt-an-Artwork

Ongoing

​​Adopting an art work from the permanent collection at RiverBrink is a unique way to support the art museum. Although adopted art works remain at RiverBrink, your financial support enables you to establish a special connection with a beloved work of art.
​
You may choose from one of five annual giving levels, starting at $50. Your adoption helps support ongoing care and conservation of art works and helps ensure the future of the collection.

Recent Acquisitions

​Bottom Floor

​RiverBrink continues to collect through donation and purchase, with the goal of developing a collection that both complements and broadens the Samuel E. Weir Collection. The recent acquisition of three works by Ghitta Caiserman-Roth increases the number of women artists in the collection, an underdeveloped area of acquisition.

Bronze sculptures by the 20th-century Québec artist are on permanent display in the library. Beginning in the 1940s, Sam Weir commissioned the casting of the bronzes with the goal of acquiring a representative survey of the artist’s work in sculpture. This project was continued following Weir’s death.
