In the 30-minute episode, Garfield also shows us photographs of the 1909 Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exhibition, our region’s first worlds fair. Then he gives us a peek at the early twentieth century Arts and Crafts Movement in the Northwest exhibit which showcases significant buildings, interiors, furniture, glass and more with over one hundred objects drawn from public and private collections.

Watch the show, and then be sure to plan a trip to visit MOHAI and see the region’s history up close and personal.
