| Physical Description: | Woodblock print in black and white of houses in rows. |
| Description: | Jane Baldwin's woodblock prints capture the essence of the Palouse landscape. Art was essential to sustaining America's spirit during the hard economic times of the 1930s, and Baldwin helped Spokane land an art center funded by President Roosevelt's New Deal. Between 1938 and 1942, the Spokane Art Center was a dynamic force in the community, as thousands of adults and children enrolled in free classes in lithography, painting and other disciplines taught by artists such as Robert Engard and Vanessa Helder. A community gallery offered a space for students, many of whom went on to lead successful art careers of their own. |
