History
The Beaux Arts organization promotes an interest in art and art appreciation and provides support in the form of improvements, equipment, and financial assistance to the Lowe Art Museum (formerly the Lowe Gallery). It was founded in 1952 by fifty members under the direction of Ann Atkinson, then Assistant Director of the newly built Joe and Emily Lowe Art Gallery. The organization also presents a yearly outdoor juried art exhibit which attracts artists from around the entire country.
