Van Slyke’s Painting Chosen for Permanent Collection

Art teacher Ms. Ingrid Van Slyke’s painting, “The Road Home,” has been acquired to be included in the permanent collection of the Adirondack Experience Museum in Blue Mountain Lake, NY. The museum’s fine art collection includes artists such as Thomas Cole, Rockwell Kent, Winslow Homer, and many wonderful contemporary artists.

“The Road Home” is a painting of a location on John Brown Road that Ms. Ingrid Van Slyke walks by often. The painting was on exhibit at the Paul Smiths VIC. The art collection curator at Adirondack Experience Museum saw it while it was on display there. She called Ms. Van Slyke and asked if she could buy it for the museum.

Ms. Van Slyke is very happy about this because it’s one of her favorite paintings, and she now knows it will be in a place where lots of people can see it, and it will be taken good care of.
