HOLLAND, Mich. (WOOD) — A new bilingual temporary exhibit is now open at the Holland Museum, showcasing some items that have never been displayed.
From Dec. 9 through April 17, Storied Objects: Folk Art from the Holland Museum Collection will highlight and honor folk art. The art form spans every culture, merging the utilitarian with the decorative while reflecting the communities from which it originates.
“Most art is defined by a time period, so you think about the Renaissance time period or the Impressionistic time period, and folk art really spans that,” Katie Baker, development and communications associate director, said.
