  • TRI-KAPPA COLLECTION of ARTWORKS at ROSE-HULMAN
    TRI-KAPPA COLLECTION OF ARTWORKS at ROSE-HULMAN The Tri-Kappa Art Collecion of Indiana artists is valuable and unique. Started in 1932, the collection contains over 100 artworks by almost as many artists. The value of the collection has increased manyfold since then. After years of traveling all over the state, it was found necessary to permanently house the collection. As a result of an all-chapter poll in 1973, the chapters voted to loan nearly every painting to Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology. The works would be reframed and restored if necessary, insured, and hung permanently in the John Logan Library, which is hailed as a fire-proof building. A few paintings have been added to the collection in the library since 1973. The Tri-Kappa chapters are encouraged to plan outings to view the collection. 1 PATRIARCH MAPLE 69th Hoosier Salon 1993 Ken Bucklew (b. 1957) No. 1 Oil 15.5 X 11.5 Ken was born in Greencastle, Indiana on March 8, 1957. He grew up on the edge of Spencer in Owen County, Indiana about 13 miles northeast of Bloomington. The Bucklew Gallery is currently located in Spencer near the entrance to Indiana’s oldest “ McCormick’s Creek” State Park. Ken’s natural talent for drawing and painting was recognized by his elementary school art teacher, Ms. Ina Hight, who gave him an awareness of his potential. Ken’s work began earning him recognition, awards and a limited income during his high school years. Ken was accepted by a technical school and planned on earning his degree in commercial art.
