Credit LineSeattle Arts Commission's Artist in the City Program through CETA (Comprehensive Employment and Training Act) funds
In 1974, in an effort to fight high unemployment, the federal government funded an employment program called the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act or CETA. Among those projects that CETA funded was a series of art commissions in Seattle entitled The Artist in the City. This weaving is one of the works that the city received for its collection under that program.
