From WVIK's Audio Archive: The John Deere Art Collection at the Figge

In the spring of 2010, the Figge Art Museum in Davenport partnered with Deere and Company to showcase works from the company's art collection. Here's Michelle O'Neill's report that previewed the opening of the exhibit entitled, Global Currents: The John Deere Art Collection.

The Quad Cities is well-known as the home of John Deere, but what's not well-known is that it's also the home of the company's extensive art collection.

Michelle O'Neill reports that could change starting this weekend (4/23/2010), when the Figge Art Museum in Davenport opens an exhibit called, Global Currents: The John Deere Art Collection.

Officially, Michelle's title for 28 years was WVIK News Editor. She did everything there is to do in the newsroom and whatever was needed around the radio station. She also served as Acting News Director from September 2023 - January 2024.
