Anderson Foundation for the Arts

The Anderson foundation for the arts has a collection of sculptures from various prominent contemporary artists. Items in the collection are available to be loaned to museums or other nonprofit organizations. It has an exhibition space for shows of many types of visual arts and will maintain a public display of sculptures in an outdoor sculptures garden in walla walla Washington. The officers of the organization believe it is extremely important to educate communities on how art is created. Learning how objects are made and how the creative process works encourages imagination that helps to form innovative minds and critical thinking. The foundation is qualified to teach how art is made because the founders and board members have extensive backgrounds in the arts.
