The ACSM is very pleased to announce the return of our popular program Afternoon with the Artist on Sunday, March 26th.  We are delighted that Janet Williams will be the first artist in this new series of programs.  Janet grew up in the Ardens and has returned to live in the community.  She has studied at PAFA and holds degrees from both the University of Delaware and Philadelphia University. After working in many different media, Janet has returned to painting and has found inspiration in working outdoors.
 
Janet has said, “As a plein air painter my enjoyment comes from sorting out a cluster of trees, flowers or plants as they capture the light.”  We are excited to see what Janet will show and exhibit at the Museum.  The show will be open during our regular hours from 1-3 PM, Sunday, March 26th.

To see a sample of Janet's work please visit her website.

Janet is a member of the Arden Artisans Collective.

​The exhibition celebrating the Ardentown Centennial is now open.  We are delighted to announce that that some new objects have been added to both the exhibition and the main display space at the Museum.  A wonderful handcrafted sign which once invited guests to that famous, or infamous, spot on the ground level of the Candlelight Theater is now on display.  We have also been able to rehang two stained glass windows originally in the Monastery.  In addition, a striking hand-carved sign celebrating the Museum is now also on display.  Be sure to stop in to see these great additions to the gallery.
