Cherokee Indian Fair 1946
Cherokee Indian Fair 1946
MCI_CIF1946_01
Item
Item’s are ‘child’ level descriptions to ‘parent’ objects, (e.g. one page of a whole book).
-
This program for the 29th annual Cherokee Indian Fair is 22 pages and documents the fair that was held on October 1, 2, 3, 4, & 5 in 1946. The fair was first formally established and held regularly in 1914. Since it began, one of its main functions was to sponsor competitions that provided a showcase for Cherokee crafts. A tradition that continues today, at the annual fair, the Cherokee display a wide variety of high quality work. The fair programs were usually 20 to 30 pages each and listed the competition categories and the monetary prizes offered. The 1946 fair was the first fair since the fairs ceased to be held after the 1941 due to World War II. Beginning in this year, in addition to seeing displays of the finished craft entries, visitors to the fair were able to observe the techniques and processes involved in producing the craft items on view with demonstrations of basket making, pottery construction, spinning, and weaving presented. Photographs in this program are from 1941.
