This fall, The Museum will host an engaging exhibition that features historic works from the archives of the C. F. Martin & Company® in Nazareth, Pennsylvania, established in 1833. The show will include early labels, instrument templates, and designs for guitars and also features a group of unique designs for custom and limited edition guitars by New Jersey artist Robert Goetzl. On view will be preliminary studies and designs for Goetzl’s large mural at the Martin Factory Visitor Center which features the history of six generations of Martin family members. The show also will explore Goetzl’s guitars commemorating Save the Planet, Lakota Sioux Native Americans, Rock the Vote (featuring David Crosby), Martin Legacy Guitar, The H.M.S. Dreadnaught Battleship guitar, and more. The exhibition will be on view in the Works on Paper Gallery and Corridor.

The Art of the Guitar is supported by the Hawley and Myrtle Quier Fund of the Berks County Community Foundation.
