In April of 2014, heaven opened and embraced Peter where I am sure he continues to create before his Creator. Roberts willed his collection of art to the Heartland Cultural Alliance, which Fred Leavitt is President. Leavitt’s mission is to house Roberts’s collection within the Peter Powell Roberts Museum of Art and Cultural Center that is underway on the second floor of the Community Center in Avon Park, Fla. For more information on how you can be apart of contributing to this venture please visit www. peterpowellroberts.org. To find more information on Heartland Cultural Alliance’s mission in promoting the art and culture of Highlands County visit www.heartlandculturalallicance.org. Peter Powell Roberts is a man who embraced the elements of creation and chose to express them in a new light so that man could associate with its beauty. He was able to bring such creative expression from the darkest parts of the dust to a place of human relation. His pieces are those that depict a time created before him, in which he captured its beauty during his days, and now inspires others after he has gone. He leaves a legacy of expression intertwining creation, emotion, and deep knowledge of who he was within his Creator.
