At the Intersection of Art & History

Video Slideshow

The PoCo Muse, as its staff and board like to say, sits at the intersection of art and history. Just what exactly does that mean? How exactly do the arts “connect us to our past and give direction to our future?”

This short video slideshow will attempt to answer these questions by presenting highlights from our permanent art collection and discussing a few themes one can find in these works.
