ART INSTRUCTION
BEING GIVEN DAILY
AT NOME SCHOOL
The Art Workshop, under the
sponsorship of the BIA and the
U of Alaska, started yesterday
afternoon with only seven inter
ested persons taking advantage of
this unusual opportunity with in
struction by Danny Pierce of the
Art Dept, of the University of
Alaska.
Mr. Pierce explained that it is
not necessary to attend all the
classes which will be every week
day for the month of August in
the afternoons from 1 until 4
o'clock and that each person at
tending is treated as an individual,
being given personal advice and
instruction in their work. It is
for beginners as well as those
who have had instruction experi
ence and is for children as well
as adults and includes people of all
races. There is no charge for the
instruction.
The same applies to the evening
course in design which are being
given each evening this month from
7 to 10 o’clock by Ronald Senun
getuk, instructor from the Uni
versity of Alaska and in which only
five have enrolled for the be
ginning class.
The classes are held in Room
9 of the Nome School and the fine
artists of King Island, Shishmaref,
Wales. Gambell, etc., who work
with ivory are urged to take ad
vantage of this opportunity in
learning how to use materials, new
tools and improve their work if
they so desire.
Occasionally some of our talent
ed Eskimos have the opportunity
of being sent away to schools for
training. Not all of the older or
younger people so talented get this
opportunity. If enough people
show interest in learning more
about their own crafts and the
possibilities of creating an indus
try from their crafts, a longer and
better program can be establish
ed here to meet the needs of the
people whether they are white or
Eskimo.

Civic Affairs Committee of the
Chamber of Commerce, has as one
of his pet projects the restoration
of large items relative to Nome’s
historical background which will

before the original is completely
destroyed at St. Michaels.
He states he is encouraged with
the many suggestions and ideas
which have been offered and wel
comes any new or additional sug
gestions on other items for the
exhibit.
