Garnett’s Walker Collection draws national attention
Maynard Walker donated art to Garnett in 1951 and a bond funded a library to house it. Curator Robert Logan and Robert Cugno expanded the collection with works by Corot Picasso Grosz and others, earning national notice and a Kansas Governor’s Arts Award for Community Development in 1994.
