"Plant-balloon business blossoms into vast collection of art"

Read Lee Shearer's Athens Banner Herald story on museum donor and great friend C.L. Morehead [here].

A bit:

"The Dodd paintings and drawings, along with hundreds of items of Dodd memorabilia, one day will go to the Georgia Museum of Art. So will the African art collection and much of the rest of Morehead's collections.

Morehead's art collection grew out of a friendship with Dodd that developed over decades - as did Morehead's resolve to give it all to his alma mater's art museum, he said."
