Sandra K. Edwards, Deputy Director, Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Bentonville, Arkansas

This presentation is an introduction to the art, nature, and architecture of Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art. Our mission is to welcome all to celebrate the American spirit in a setting that unites the power of art with the beauty of nature —from the vision, to the opening on 11.11.11, five years later, and even looking beyond to a newly enhanced sculpture forest, innovative arts venue, and a continued focus on providing access to the arts and educational programming for all .
