Thanks for spreading the word Pamela. This should be an interesting show. I loaned four Cherokee baskets from my collection to supplement other Cherokee baskets that are being shown by current and historic makers. Several new donations to the NBO permanent collection will be shown along with existing pieces in the collection.

i am sure your collection alone would make an impressive exhibition, Susi! It is great of you to contribute to it. I can't wait to see the pictures!
