PARAGOULD, AR May 20— The second exhibit in BRTC’s student-led Mini-Museum opened recently.  The new exhibit is a collection of Frankoma pottery which is made from red clay found in Oklahoma.

Dr. Dianna Fraley’s World Civilizations to 1660 class curated the exhibit. The “Cabinet of Curiosities: Frankoma” exhibit will run through the summer until September 1, 2021.  The exhibit is free and open to the public during campus hours.

The exhibit was made possible by a grant from The Arkansas Humanities Council and the National Endowment for the Humanities and the generous loan of Dr. Mike Luster.
