In 2005, Barbara “Willey” Fromm, a renowned local Tamworth artist, gave fourteen pieces of art from her collection to the library. These woodcuts, oils and watercolors are proudly displayed on the walls of the library, upstairs and down, on a semi-permanent basis. Come in anytime the library is open to see this wonderful collection.

My family and I were wondering if you could share some more information about Barbara Willey Fromm with us. We have six paintings of hers..two of them were portraits of my aunt and uncle. Is she still living? One of our paintings has an address from Kansas..did she live there before? Our best guess is that my uncle may have been her doctor in Kansas. (Dr. Paul Needham and Frances Needham) We have photos of three of the paintings..one has her paint brushes in it. We would love to send the photos to you if it would be helpful. Thank you for your time.
