In Spirit

The spiritual realm comes alive through the works of Heather Murray, John Latour and Tim Laurin.

One of their core operating principles is to make the fine art of preserving objects of artistic, historic, or personal significance accessible to smaller communities and individuals located outside large city centers. This year, in recognition of the importance of local community and accessibility, GBAC is proud to launch the "Angel Project", which will provide voluntary conservation assistance for an important local collection each year.
