About This Picture
Gordy Fine Art & Framing Company is creating frames for Bob Ross paintings that will be part of Minnetrista’s “Bob Ross Experience,” opening in October. Gordy staff and Minnetrista’s curators researched both Bob’s framing preferences and the framing styles of the mid 1980s to early 1990s. From 1983 until 1994, the “Joy of Painting” was taped at WIPB, a PBS station, run by Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. For five of those years, the unassuming WIPB studio was located in the historic L.L. Ball home, which today is part of Minnetrista’s campus.

VIRTUAL FIRST THURSDAY – Framing Bob Ross. Join Carl & Barbara on Facebook LIVE on May 7th at 6:15 as they share how they created frames for some of Minnetrista’s Bob Ross paintings. These paintings will be part of Minnetrista’s “Bob Ross Experience,” opening in October. Carl & Barbara and Minnetrista’s curators took time to research both Bob’s framing preferences and the framing styles of the mid 1980s to early 1990s. The “Joy of Painting” was taped at WIPB, a PBS station, run by Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. For part of that time, the WIPB studio was located in the historic L.L. Ball home, which today is part of Minnetrista’s campus. So we invite everyone to stay home, sit down with their favorite beverage, and take a moment to celebrate the local art scene.
