Affiliation referring to exhibiting artists at the West Bend Art Museum from 1993-2006. The museum was founded by Melitta Hedwig
Suder Pick (Mrs Andrew Pick) and her daughters Joan Marr Pick and
Melitta (Billa) Suder Pick. Its main purpose was to collect, preserve
and educate the general public on the life and artwork of Carl von Marr
(1858-1936). The gallery would also hold art classes and have changing
exhibitions. In 1993 the gallery was renamed the West Bend Art Museum and began collecting Wisconsin Art in the mid 1980s
and in 2007 was renamed again, the Museum of Wisconsin Art to
better represent Wisconsin as a Regional Art Museum and housed the largest collection and archive of Wisconsin Art & artists.
