Fair ‘Best of Show’ winner Ken Williams Jr. to speak to November Guild meeting

If you’ve ever thought about joining the Heard Museum Guild, the museum’s dedicated corps of volunteers, a general membership meeting is held on the third Wednesday of each month from September to April, except December. After a social from 9:30 to 10 a.m., a featured speaker takes the lectern from 10 to 11 a.m., followed by a business meeting from 11 to 11:30 a.m. Come and meet some of the people whose time, talent and energy are indispensable to making the Heard such a special place.

Ken Williams Jr. (Arapaho/Seneca) won the Best of Show award at the 2014 Heard Museum Guild Indian Fair & Market in March for his beaded bag tribute to Hopi artist Charles Loloma titled, “He Was Iconic.” His remarkable beadwork delighted and amazed Fair visitors.  Ken runs the Case Trading Post  at the Wheelwright Museum in Santa Fe, N.M.

Ken is a young and affable artist and is sure to give a most enjoyable presentation.
