Ottis Adams and later William Forsyth, the Fort Wayne Museum of Art (FWMoA) is now a leading non-profit art museum in Indiana. Regularly exhibiting nationally acclaimed artists, the FWMoA also stewards a collection of 10,000 objects of American and international art from the 18th century to today, including the state\u2019s largest collection of glass sculpture. Through numerous educational programs that reach nearly 100,000 children and adults annually, FWMoA is committed to the collection, preservation, presentation, and interpretation of American and related art to engage broad and diverse audiences throughout the region to add value to their lives. FWMoA is accredited by the American Alliance of Museums, the country\u2019s only organization representing the entire museum field, from art and history museums to science centers and zoos.

Lilly, Sr. and his sons Eli and J.K. Jr. through gifts of stock in their pharmaceutical business, Eli Lilly and Company. Although the gifts of stock remain a financial bedrock of the Endowment, it is a separate entity from the company, with a distinct governing board, staff, and location. In keeping with the founders\u2019 wishes, the Endowment supports the causes of community development, education, and religion. While the Endowment funds programs throughout the United States on an invitational basis to support these causes, especially in the field of religion, it maintains a special commitment to its founders\u2019 hometown, Indianapolis, and home state, Indiana.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/baker-street-station\/68589.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"The Peoples Trust &amp;amp; Savings Company Clock at the Baker Street Railroad Station.
