Well known collector Tim Newton and prominent editor Peter Trippi join together to discuss the role of the collector in today's art world.  Having collected art since 1991, this "fireside chat" will specifically focus on Newton's journey within the art community. He will share his experiences and collecting strategies.

Some of the topics covered will include:

• What does/should a collector look for in choosing a work of art?
• What does a collector want to see in an artist?
• With so much art to choose from, where do you begin?
• When does a buyer become a collector?
• How can you build a significant collection on a moderate budget?
• What is the difference between a collector and a connoisseur?

This promises to be a lively and engaging evening for both artists and art buyers alike.

This event is free and open to the public.
