In 1964, while he was chairman of the Art Department at Stetson University in Deland, Florida, Fred Messersmith met Ruth Mead, founder of the Martha’s Vineyard Art Association. Francis Chapin, a summer Vineyard resident, was an artist-in-residence at Stetson at the time. Ruth urged Fred and his wife, Jane, to come to the lovely island for the summer, and so began the Messersmiths connection to the Vineyard and Fred’s 34-year history with the Association.
