Curatorial Walkthrough - Folk Nation: Crafting Patriotism in the United States

Curatorial walkthrough of the exhibition "Folk Nation: Crafting Patriotism in the United States"

Drawn from the American Folk Art Museum’s collection, Folk Nation: Crafting Patriotism in the United States examines how Americans have defined themselves through the creation, collection, and transmission of vernacular objects.

In this virtual walkthrough, Emelie Gevalt, AFAM’s Deborah Davenport and Stewart Stender Deputy Director & Chief Curatorial and Program Officer, guides us through the galleries to discuss the variety and artistry of works on view, including oil paintings, drawings, needlework, and sculpture.
