The artists at the Smithsonian created the arch from a sketch by Landy R. Hales which will be available to the public by appointment in the Smithsonian archives after their "Holidays on Display" exhibit closes at the end of summer 2010.

Holidays on Display

The Washington Post has a great article about the new exhibit at the Smithsonian. It is a great overall view of what can be seen in the exhibit. The Post's address for the whole article is http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/11/13/AR2009111304101.html Please take the time to read the article. Then, if you are in the Washington area, stop by the Museum of American History. Another sister may be able to post the whole article , but I am too new at this blog stuff.
