TUPELO ⢠The GumTree Museum of Art in Tupelo will offer some senior students interested in the art a chance to further their studies thanks to an endowment fund started in honor of a beloved local artist and longtime museum leader.
Earlier this week, the museum, located in downtown Tupelo, announced the establishment of the Lucy Gaines Scholarship Endowment, named in memory of the late Lucy Gaines, a local artist who served on the board of directors for the GumTree Museum of Art for 20 years. Over the years, her work has been featured in numerous exhibitions and has been included in many private art collections.
