Join us at Philbrook to discuss "A Life Made With Artists" by Julie Pearson Little Thunder and learn about the Native American art the museum possesses. Registration is required. For adults.
The matriarch of the Oklahoma Indian Art Movement, Doris Littrell bought her first piece of Oklahoma Indian art for a dollar while still a teen, not realizing it was her first acquisition in what would become a life made with Native American artists and their art. This is her story -- from a hard, scramble childhood on the plains of southwest Oklahoma that forced her out and on her own at the age of 13 to the ownership of an Oklahoma City gallery that would become a mecca for collectors and the hub of Oklahoma Indian art for decades.
