The Seattle-based insurance company is donating 840 pieces, worth about $3.5 million, to the Washington Art Consortium. (The Whatcom Museum and Western's Gallery will benefit from this donation too!) Today is a great day in the Northwest art world, especially knowing that hundreds of pieces by local artists will remain in the state.
