Rare Private Collections Go on Display at San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts

A new exhibit at the San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts is highlighting artwork and artifacts from private collections throughout the Concho Valley. The exhibit, titled *Discovering Global Treasures in Concho Valley Collections*, features pieces ranging from Japanese prints and European decorative arts to works by Texas artists. Museum officials say items from about 40 local collections are included in the display. Curators describe the exhibit as a rare opportunity to showcase significant pieces that are usually not accessible to the public. The exhibit runs through August 30. Museum leaders hope it will encourage visitors to explore the region’s artistic and cultural treasures.
