A popular art museum in Doylestown recently had one of its most recognized pieces cleaned for the public and those passing by.

The Michener Art Museum, located at 138 South Pine Street, is home to many works my artists near and far for many years. One of the pieces it is known for is Steve Tobin’s “Dancing Steelroots”, which stands outside of the museum’s entrance.

Because it is an outdoor installation, it is constantly exposed to the elements. To remedy this, the museum has a professional art cleaner come and breathe new life into the sculpture.

“Lee Dunsmore from Sculptural Services [spent] two full days here at the Museum to give this 16ft tall sculpture a proper bath!”

The museum collects, preserves, interprets, and exhibits art, primarily American art, and promotes the Delaware River Valley region’s rich artistic and cultural heritage, with a particular focus on Bucks County.

“The Museum presents exhibitions that explore a variety of artistic expressions and offers diverse educational programs that develop a lifelong involvement in the arts.”
