FCMOA celebrates 13 years of Masks, the museum’s signature exhibition and fund-raising campaign. With the focus on community and creativity, Masks is Fort Collins largest visual art event with an exhibition of 200 masks designed by professional artists, student artists and artists of all ages. Initially, masks leave the museum as simple ceramic forms and return transformed into works of art to be exhibited and sold in the museum’s silent auction. The in-gallery auction is but one part of the fundraising components of the project, which provides a portion of the museum’s annual budget.
