Eiteljorg Museum



Flipped the sketch from Sketches in Thyme #110 for this layout from our March trip to Indianapolis. The moment I saw the totem pole I knew I'd seen it before. Turns out that a group of totem poles had been collected from Alaska for the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair. Afterward one went to Indianapolis, one went to Milwaukee and the rest returned to Alaska. Having lived in Milwaukee for nearly 30 years I'd seen the totem pole in front of the Milwaukee museum hundreds if not thousands of times.
