ZANESVILLE, Ohio- The Zanesville Museum of Art receives its largest donation from Beaux Arts Club.

The museum just received $33,000 from the arts club. The money will be used for education programs as well as displaying new exhibitions for the public.

“It was the most money we’ve ever raised and we gave the net profit $33,000 to the museum. Which goes for display cases, conserving art, educational programs, new art. Our mission is to promote and support the Zanesville Museum of Art,” said President Karen Baker.
