Patrick J. Nolan was a prolific self-taught artist who believed his art practice was key to understanding himself and expressing it to the world. He shared his passion and commitment for the arts with others as one of the founders of Crossroads Arts Council in Wentzville, MO. His family has established the Patrick J. Nolan CAC Endowment fund to celebrate and honor him and his commitment to the arts. This endowment will be used to build the CAC and its mission to celebrate, educate and integrate the visual arts throughout the St. Charles County community.
