Description
America might yet be a young nation, relatively speaking, but she has a rich, mixed cultural heritage, of which the nation's folk art stands as but one example and it's this that is the focus of the Musuem of American Folk Art. From paintings and drawings to sculpture, textiles and photographs, the permanent collection at this facility draws from the works America's "folk",exhibited so as to enhance visitors' understanding of these pieces in their cultural and historic context.
