Folk Art Revealed
November 16, 2004–August 23, 2009
A provocative installation of artworks that span the eighteenth century to the present reveal the remarkable depth and diversity of the museum's collection. Four universal themes—utility, community, individuality, and symbolism—invite a deeper understanding of folk art and its role in people’s lives.

Stacy C. Hollander and Brooke Davis Anderson, curators
