		SPRING 2008:

		In Remembrance: Artists from the Paul R. Jones Collection January 22-May 23, 2008 Reception: Wednesday, February 13, 5-7pm

		The Paul R Jones Collection at the University Museums of the University of Delaware


		The Paul R. Jones Collection at the University of Delaware was founded with a major gift from Paul R. Jones. Works by African American artists donated to the University by other donors, including Robert and Joanne Mitchell, Donald Polk and the Polk Family, and James Van der Zee, have been assigned to the Collection. It is expected that the University's Paul R. Jones Collection of African American Art will continue to grow through purchases and the continued support of Mr. Jones and other generous donors.

		A full color catalog of the inaugural exhibition, A Century of African American Art, with essays on the works and profiles of the artists is still available in limited quantities. Please see the publications page for information.
