Source catalog description

This description refers to material held by Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture. Visual details below describe the original material.

Digital image scanned from a 35mm black and white negative of Allen Fannin giving a presentation at Haystack Mountain School of Crafts during the 1974 annual summer session. Fannin, a textile instructor for the summer session, stands at the end of the room, his proper left leg perched on chair as he uses both hands to rest on the top of two chairs. The campers, including Art Smith, sit in chairs alongside the walls of the room, with most of them turned towards Fannin. Fannin wears dark color pants and a lighter colored long-sleeved shirt rolled to his elbows.
