Cherokee National Treasure Thelma Forrest has spent over four decades making Cherokee traditional baskets. In this podcast, listen to her tell how she learned to the art of basketry from elders in the rural Cherokee community of Kenwood and how she has passed down the craft to her grandchildren.

Make plans to see the new exhibit “Thelma Forrest: A Weaver’s Wisdom” at the Saline Courthouse Museum in Rose, Oklahoma — on display now through January 7, 2023. #VisitCherokeeNation
