Description:
Exhibit honors the skills of carving, joinery and cabinetry of three cultural traditions: Coast Salish Native, European and Japanese. Items date from the 1800s and early 20th century and include a traditional Muckleshoot Indian feast dish, a chest of drawers made from scrap lumber in a World War II Japanese-American internment camp, toys from the Great Depression, walking canes with delicate Japanese hand-carving, and an elegant Rosewood concert grand piano that made its way to America by sailing around the tumultuous Cape Horn before the Panama Canal existed. The White River Valley Museum is open Wednesday through Sunday, noon to 4 p.m. Regular admission is $2 adults, $1 seniors and children. Free on Wednesdays.
