It began with the gift from Lois Wilson, a Fayette native, of her art collection, which ultimately totaled 2.600 pieces of her own and of other artists’ work.  are now over 4000 pieces in the permanent collection with over 500 running feet of display space on the main floor of the Civic Center and 6 folk art galleries downstairs, as well as a gallery used for the Director/Curator's office.
