Betsy K. White Cultural Heritage Gallery

Named after the museum’s executive director, this gallery honors Betsy K. White, who created the Cultural Heritage Project, oversaw all of its research, and wrote two books on the project. She also has curated several of its exhibitions and built its collections. Many pieces from our permanent collections are housed in this gallery, including furniture, pottery, textiles, art, and metalwork, offering a glimpse into our region’s decorative arts legacy.
