Inside the Mathers Museum of World Cultures, running the length of the main hall, the "Creative Againg" exhibition tells tales of the past and of imagination. Jon Kay, director of Traditional Arts Indiana, curates the exhibit, which consists of rag dolls with stories, model homes built from memory, and rugs never meant to touch the floor. Kay said he assembled the exhibit to inspire museum goers of all ages to create, view and share art. Learn more.
