- Description:
- The letter is discussing an opportunity for American Indian arts and crafts to be displayed and sold at the All Nations Day Festival in Baltimore. The festival is a "world's fair" that aims to bring people of different nationalities together. The letter suggests that the Indian group should start preparing early to bring in wares from Reservations for sale. The writer, Edna G. Sloan, also mentions that her sister will be in Washington soon and would like to meet with LaDonna Harris to discuss the festival. Sloan expresses a strong desire for the Indian display to be the best and asks for help in obtaining Indian things for the festival.
