On display through October 31, 2022
To stay current with ongoing studies, the exhibit will also re-examine and update some of the previously published writings on the subject with the expectation that the exhibit will help answer questions on how to accurately date Southwestern jewelry and other silver items as well as where pieces fit in a chronological history of the craft.
