In the two years we have been here we have accumulated what some say to be a large collection of local artwork. We have carried a fair amount down to adorn the house in Anchorage, but we still have a good collection here that continues to grow. Some of this is already pictured in the art photo gallery of 2003 but a lot of is has been acquired since.
