Value Added: Common Ground
Faith
This permanent collection exhibit wraps up an entire year of looking at how objects acquire value, from sentimental and personal objects, to objects that represent our collective, cultural heritage. As an art gallery with a growing public collection, we consider it a big responsibility when deciding which objects best represent our community as a whole: what will have everlasting value by way of story, craft, concept, or social commentary with which we might be able to mark a significant time in our collective history.
Value Added was conceived with the goal of finding common ground amidst our diverse community. We chose five categories we believe everyone, regardless of age or background, would likely agree that we collectively value: our rights, our country, our heritage, our faith, and our family. However we worship, vote, marry, love, and celebrate, these are all things that are important to many of us. The objects on display were selected to illustrate these concepts.
