[2][10] A Noel artwork has been displayed in the museum's Broad Ripple Park Carousel gallery for several years.

The exhibit included more than 40 of Noel's artworks, alongside several of the original collections objects depicted in her work, and a recreation of her artist's studio, with interactive stations for children to produce their own art.

[7] In 2005, Noel purchased an old Victorian church on Main Street in Zionsville, and renovated it into an art gallery that holds her full collection of work, which she called The Sanctuary.

[1][12] In 2015, Noel put The Sanctuary up for sale, and began considering moving gallery operations to Aspen, Colorado or New York City.

[13] She and her fiance, painter and former marine George Mast,[17][18][19][20] hosted events at the farm for children and adults with special needs.

[7][17] Noel's sons, with her friend and business manager Kathy Pierle, keep her studio and philanthropy interests active.
