The DAR Museum's first-ever exhibition devoted entirely to folk art showcases a facet of the collection that evolved largely by accident. The DAR Museum was never intended to be a repository for folk art, but over time, as DAR members donated family heirlooms to the collection and the popularity of American folk art increased, a varied selection of folk art objects came to be represented among the museum's holdings. This exhibition illustrates the talent and imagination of those who turned everyday objects into works of art.
