February, 2nd at 6:00 PM- 8:00 PM we are opening “Hidden in Plain Sight, The Basques” This exhibit was featured at Ellis Island. It is estimated that during the three month period at Ellis Island the exhibit could have been seen by as many as 300,000 people. Showcased in our Harano Exhibit Gallery, we will be serving Basque food and wine and a representative from the Boise Basque Museum will be present. There is no cost to attend.
The exhibit showcases Basque history and culture in six separate themes and narrative. Exhibit materials were selected to represent Basques from across the U.S. as well as the Basque homeland. The compilation includes audio and visual recordings, historic and contemporary photographs, interesting historical artifacts, artwork and an interactive language component.
