Special Events Conclude Smithsonian Exhibit

The final weekend of the Smithsonian foods exhibit at the Gila County Historical Museum includes a “Cowboy and Apache Days” presentation.

Old time ranchers will tell stories about the early days around a “campfire.” Another group will demonstarte Dutch Oven cooking and make cobblers in Dutch Ovens over an open fire. This will be served to the public about mid-afternoon and topped with homemade ice cream.

To demonstrate the Apache part of the event, there will be a fry bread booth operated by San Carlos residents and an offering of Apache arts and crafts. Entertainment will be provided by the Apache Crown Dancers and a traditional Apache flute player.

The event starts at 1:pm Saturday and is free of charge.
