| Details: | Magwintegwak: A Legacy of Penobscot Basketry highlights the impact of Penobscot basketmaker and tribal advocate Robert S. Anderson (1929-2020) and his lasting archival efforts to preserve Penobscot basketry. Referred to as mag-win’-teg-wak, or “choppy seas” in the Penobscot language, the Shay and Anderson families operated a business on Lincolnville Beach in Maine for almost seventy years and created a marketplace and thriving community for Wabanaki basketmakers. This exhibition traces the rise of the family business, as well as their own basket making practices, and showcases extraordinary examples of styles and traditions of Penobscot basketry from the 1930s to today.
