MOSS MUSEUM TOUR:
“She paints the human dream,” said retired P. Buckley Moss Museum Director Peter Rippe. “She paints a very perfect world. It’s a world that many people are seeking as human beings – not as Americans, but as human beings – the brotherhood of all humanity.” Pat Moss' story is told and illustrated over and over in the Museum's main gallery, as visitors are exposed to some of the best examples of her artistic creativity. The MOSS MUSEUM TOUR captures this experience.

“I think you drive your own passion. I think we all drive our own passion. You either have the energy or the passion – whatever you can call it – to do what you want to do. You’ve got to have the energy to be successful. I’m successful because I love what I do, so that’s success to me. For as long as I live and as long as I am healthy, I shall work and enjoy it. I love my life. So no matter what my life has or whatever it has in the future, I will enjoy it. I love it.” P. Buckley Moss |
