The Lewis and Clark exhibit featured works representative of the materials collected by the Lewis and Clark expedition. The artifacts in this exhibit were built by a number of craftsmen who through their work are keeping alive the crafts of the Plains Indians. These objects were built in the same manner used by the Plains Indians of the early 1800s. A guide was prepared for the exhibit which helped explain the various items. This is the material from that guide. Artifacts by Sioux Replications, Photography by Franz Brown. |
