Kings Art Center Bids a fond farewell to one of our founders- Robert Marcellus
Robert Marcellus had a vision to provide a place where artists and art enthusiast could call home - a place to not only appreciate art, but also learn and grow as an artist. With other founders like Dr. Lloyd Christensen, William Banister, and Sidney J.W. Sharp Jr., he was able to turn that vision into a reality. Now almost 30 years later, the Kings Art Center has become a place for people of all ages to exhibit and experience art. We can only hope to keep honoring the Legacy that these founders established from the ground up.
Robert Marcellus was not only a founder of the Kings Art Center, he was also the Executive Director and Curator of the organization for nearly 20 years, he was an art teacher and connoisseur. A skilled sculptor and wood craftsman, he was most known for his watercolors. His vibrant works brought to life his love for nature.
A great loss to our community, Robert passed away at the age of 89 last week. We send our most sincere condolences to his wife Sallie, and to the whole family.
The family has asked that in lieu of flowers, donations in Bob's memory be made to the Kings Art Center.
