Permanent Collection<br />

10<br />

The permanent collection is a resource for creating exhibitions<br />

and developing o<strong>the</strong>r programs that help interpret <strong>the</strong> beauty<br />

and meaning <strong>of</strong> art. The FIA’s extensive permanent collection also<br />

provides opportunities for educational programs for students and<br />

scholars, as well as a diverse public.<br />

The growth <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> collection is supported by gifts from civic-<br />

minded individuals who donate funds and exceptional works<br />

<strong>of</strong> art to <strong>the</strong> permanent collection. In addition, <strong>the</strong> Curatorial<br />

Department and <strong>the</strong> Collections Committee work toge<strong>the</strong>r<br />

to identify strategies and seek new funds for <strong>the</strong> acquisition <strong>of</strong><br />

artworks that meet museum objectives and <strong>the</strong> expectations <strong>of</strong><br />

an ever inquisitive and knowledgeable public. The staff conducts<br />

work essential to <strong>the</strong> care and management <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> collection,<br />

including research, documentation, preservation, presentation<br />

and interpretation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> collection.<br />
