Basketry Treasured<br />
Presented in honor of the state’s<br />
centennial, Basketry Treasured, through<br />
June 1, 2013 at the Arizona State<br />
Museum, celebrates the ancient and<br />
abiding Arizona tradition of Native<br />
basketry. Five hundred stunning examples<br />
represent the staggering depth<br />
and breadth of the museum’s collec-<br />
tion, recently designated an American<br />
Treasure. O’odham, Apache, and Hopi<br />
voices enrich the exhibit’s discussions<br />
of materials, technologies, traditions,<br />
and the many functions basketry has<br />
served and continues to serve in Native<br />
communities. Other stories tell of<br />
some of the early 20th century Ari-<br />
zonans whose personal assemblages<br />
became the foundation of ASM’s vast<br />
collection.<br />
