Stark Museum of Art
Have you heard of the Stark Museum of Art?
Located in Orange, Texas, this museum houses one of the nation’s most significant collections of American Western art!
The museum has a deep history that is indeed interesting. With humble beginnings as a vision of H.J. Lutcher Stark and his mother, Miriam Lutcher Stark, an enthusiastic collector of art, furniture, and decorative items from around the world, the museum has grown in popularity and vision tremendously along the way.
Lutcher Stark developed a similar passion for collecting, with a particular interest in nature and art depicting the American West. Both Miriam and Lutcher Stark shared the desire that one day a museum in Orange, Texas, would display the works of art they collected!
Today, this is not just a dream, but a reality.
With collections spanning Western Art, American Indian Art, Decorative Arts, and Rare Books and Manuscripts, a visit to the museum at Stark Museum of Art indeed would be memorable.
