OUR FOUNDER Almost 100 years in the making, Baker Hunt Art and Cultural Center was founded in 1922 by a wonderful, strong and giving woman. Margaretta Baker-Hunt was a visionary who was committed to her community. After the loss of most of her family, she did not bow under the weight of her grief. Instead, Margaretta and her niece, Kate Scudder opened their hearts and their home to the community. The purpose of the foundation was “the promotion of Education, Art, Science, Psychic Research, and Religion. Margaretta was the original STEAM educator. OUR MISSION Our mission at Baker Hunt Art and Cultural Center is to provide professional art instruction in a compelling learning environment for the enrichment of studies in the Arts and Humanities. OUR GOALS Our Goals are simple, to make art available to all; young and old, on campus and off, for the enrichment of our students and the cultural development of our community.
