Huntington Museum of Art Names Brown Volunteer of the Year

The Huntington Museum of Art named Charles Brown "Volunteer of the Year" for 2008 - 2009 at its annual volunteer luncheon this week. He has been volunteering and demonstrating at the museum for 7 1/2 years and has donated over 1000 hours of his time. Charles is a well known wood craftsman at the State of West Virginia's Tamarack art center in Beckley, and he will be demonstrating there on April 17, 18, and 19.

Our congratulations to Charles for his service to the museum and our Huntington Community and his designation as the Huntington Museum of Art Volunteer of the Year for 2008-2009.
