Flora Cameron Collection

Art Center Waco is delighted to announce that it has officially accepted the Flora Cameron Art Collection, a distinguished and diverse assembly of approximately 80 artworks spanning realism, impressionism, abstract, and modern styles. This remarkable collection has been generously entrusted to ACW by the Flora Cameron Foundation, and we are grateful for the Foundation’s desire to place the collection in Waco to further the center’s mission statement, “Art is for Everyone.”

This collection features works by numerous national and international artists, showcasing a broad spectrum of artistic expression and techniques. A highlight of the collection is the stunning “Le Cirque” by Marc Chagall, a celebrated artist whose dream-like depictions of the circus captivate audiences worldwide. Once unveiled, the Flora Cameron Crichton Gallery will serve as an inspiring educational resource and cultural destination for aspiring artists, students, and art lovers alike.

Art Center Waco will open the new Cameron Gallery later this fall.
