Richard Stockton College of NJ Collaborates with Noyes Museum of Art
The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey has entered into collaboration with the Noyes Museum of Art that will benefit students and enthusiasts of the arts, as well as the College, Museum and the entire southern New Jersey region. Stockton, which has a longstanding commitment to the arts and humanities, will partner with the Noyes Museum and will provide significant renovations and upgrades to support an expanded array of educational opportunities, events, exhibits and performances at the nearby off-campus facility. Stockton is also home to one of the area’s top Performing Arts Center, and its own art gallery. Stockton’s Visual Arts program is growing and a new Bachelor of Fine Arts degree is currently under development. Such areas as Communications Studies, Historical Studies, Language and Culture Studies, Literature and Philosophy are examples of how Stockton is serving the Arts and Humanities in southern New Jersey. The partnership with the Noyes is a natural extension of Stockton’s commitment to the area’s cultural scene.
Noyes Museum History
Opened in 1983, The Noyes Museum of Art was the vision of local entrepreneurs Fred W. and Ethel (Lingelbach) Noyes, Jr. who were avid art and antique collectors. Fred was also an academically trained artist and produced many works which reflect his love of southern New Jersey's natural features. His art and personal collection of vintage bird decoys are now a part of the Museum’s vast permanent collection of 19th to 21st century fine and folk art.
The Museum boasts a serene lakeside setting adjacent to the Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge and is located minutes from downtown Atlantic City and dining and shopping at Historic Smithville Village.
General funding is provided by the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Department of State, a state partner of the National Endowment for the Arts; the Mr. and Mrs. Fred Winslow Noyes Foundation; The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey; the Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation; the Odessa F. and Henry D. Kahrs Charitable Trust and the ShopRite LPGA Classic. The Noyes Museum received funding through a grant from the New Jersey Department of State, Division of Travel & Tourism.
