A

Arthur Kraft (1922-1977) was a painter, sculptor, and muralist who, as he put it, wanted to be “left alone to create.”  Create he did and his work graced the covers of such magazines as Fortune and exhibits of his art were held in London, Rome, and New York among other locations.  While his life, art training, and career began in Kansas City, his life and work is interwoven with St. Joseph, Missouri, history too.  With that in mind, the Glore Psychiatric Museum featured exhibit from January 16 through July 16, 2020, will be Arthur Kraft:  Sounds of Fury.

Arthur Kraft:  Sounds of Fury exhibit will feature a collection of his black and white drawings, a selection of his paintings, and a copy of The Sounds of Fury from the Glore Psychiatric Museum collection.  The Guest Curator for the exhibit is St. Joseph resident and professional photographer Megan Wyeth.  When she was seven, her parents commissioned two paintings from Kraft. She still remembers his use of vivid colors. Arthur Kraft:  Sounds of Fury will open at the Glore Psychiatric Museum, 3406 Frederick Avenue, on January 16.   Visitors can tour the exhibit through July 16, 2020, during the regular museum hours of 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Monday through Saturday and 1 to 5 p.m. on Sunday.  Museum admission is $7 for adults, $6 for seniors, (62 and above) and $5 for students.  Museum members and children under six are free of charge. For more information, please call 816-232-8471 or visit stjosephmuseum.org to learn about St. Joseph Museum events, exhibits, and rental facilities.

How does a museum collection begin? Where do you start? How do you continue? How do you determine what should/shouldn’t become a part of a collection? Can a collection ever become complete?

This week, Powell Gardens, Kansas City’s botanical garden™, is launching a series of new digital content initiatives to stay connected with its community while approximately 75% of Americans have been directed to shelter-in-place in response to the COVID-19 outbreak. While Powell Gardens is closed to the public until further notice in order to keep its community safe and comply with the direction of local officials, it can remain a bright spot in news feeds and inboxes, providing beautiful, useful, and calming content.

“Now more than ever, the familiar and unyielding rhythm of Mother Nature can provide a calming consistency,” said Tabitha Schmidt, CEO/President of Powell Gardens. “It reminds us that the world goes on even in anxious and challenging times.”

Outdoor Activities for Kids
The education team at Powell Gardens is translating its programming to the digital world, offering video content and weekly downloadable outdoor activities that kids can do in their own backyards while they are out of school.

Home Garden Q&A with Horticulture Staff
The essential horticulture staff at the Gardens are focused on garden maintenance and staying ahead of Mother Nature. Many in our community are doing the same in their own gardens while spending more time at home. Each week, Powell Gardens asks its online community to submit their home gardening questions and responds with expert advice from the horticulture team.

Updates from the Gardens
Springtime in the Gardens is a crowd favorite. While visitors are unable to get to the Gardens in person, they can see what is blooming on Facebook and Instagram, and learn more from Susan Mertz, Director of Horticulture who is writing biweekly updates from the Gardens.

To access this new content, follow @PowellGardens on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter and subscribe for biweekly email updates.

“Dress for success” is good advice that the Emperor takes whole-heartedly, wanting to impress new friends. But where to stop? When the clothes (and other people’s opinions) become more important than the people of the kingdom, trouble brews. To help their beloved Emperor find the way back to his heart, his true friends create an elaborate “birthday suit” for the Emperor to wear for his birthday parade celebration. The Emperor quickly and humbly learns that sometimes “less is more!”
