Jeanne Hamilton
was a well-known and much-loved Flathead
artist who lived, painted, and taught in the Kalispell area for
more than 40 years.
Her legacy lives on in the memory of the
many students she taught at Flathead Valley Community College,
the Hockaday Center for the Arts, and in her home studio. Upon
her death the Hockaday was the recipient of her extensive art
library of approximately 1,300 volumes.
After almost a year of cleaning, conserving, and cataloguing,
the Jeanne Hamilton Memorial Library has a new home, a room all
to itself, just off the West Gallery of the museum.
Currently,
there are almost 2,800 volumes, plus magazines and videos
catalogued in the library, including a large number of recent
additions through the generous donations of several friends of
the Hockaday. Members can use the library during regular museum
hours.
Sorry, but "Check-outs" are not available from this reference
library. |
