Dr. Sarah Boehme, curator of the Stark Museum of art, shows a miniature of the quilt fabric art depicting Cathy Williams, the woman Buffalo Soldier. The miniature was commissioned by the museum so people could touch it and see the layers of the fabric artwork in the unique exhibit Black Pioneers: Legacy of the American West. Other works show Estaban, the slave who arrived in Texas in 1558 with Spanish explorers, lawman Bass Reeves, bull-dogger Bill Pickett, and Stagecoach Mary.
