Mid-American All-Indian Center hosting open house
The Mid-America All-Indian Center is hosting an open house today from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. to highlight improvements to the museum's exhibits. New exhibits feature original comics from Native-American artist and Indian Center founder Blackbear Bosin, along with expanded information on Bosin's life and work.
There are also new exhibits featuring basket weaving, arrowheads and exhibits just for children. The museum has a one-of-a-kind child-size tipi, which was hand-painted by local Elder and Cherokee Indian Dan Herman and his granddaughter Ivy.
At 11 a.m., Ken Lockwood with the Eagle Valley Raptor Center will give a presentation on Peregrine falcons and will bring three of the birds with him. From noon until 3 p.m., David Muskus will conduct an arrowhead demonstration showcasing the various types of arrowheads and their uses, as well as how they are made.
The open house is free and open to the public.
