The
County Art Collection is based with the Schools Library Service at
New Barnfield.
There are approximately
1500 items in the Collection comprising not only paintings but also
original prints, textiles, sculptures, ceramics and glass. The Collection
offers children the opportunity often for the first time to have experience
of original works of art made by professional artists and craftsmen.
Many of the artists purchased from in the past, are today, regarded
as being among the century's most important.
