About the Arts Council
Broadmead Art Council fosters a long-established tradition of art appreciation at Broadmead. It was formed shortly before the inception of Broadmead's Master Plan. Its two current goals are: To acquire art for a new, permanent collection--The Broadmead Collection--and to mount exhibitions in South Hall. It also encourages the long-standing tradition of art shows in East Hall. The Council, whose members include Broadmead residents and administrators, reaffirms Broadmead’s longstanding tradition of supporting the arts. It is a working group of the Broadmead Board of Trustees’ Strategic Planning Committee. Council Members
Several cash gifts have been made from residents, which will enable the Arts Council to purchase pictures suitable for The Broadmead Collection, the long-term project to acquire significant art for the Broadmead Community. Acquisitions will be focused on local and Maryland artists or artists with connections to Broadmead. A special effort will be made to identify the work of emerging artists. Broadmead, Inc. will own and maintain the Collection.
