The National Library of Medicine Healing Totem Journey Blog
http://nlmtotem.wordpress.com/
The Healing Totem Journey is a blog produced by the National Library of Medicine to chronicle and celebrate the creation, journey and installation of a new work of art. The Library has commissioned Master Carver Jewell Praying Wolf James, a member of the House of Tears Carvers of the Lummi Indian Nation, located in Bellingham, Washington, to carve a healing totem to be erected in front of the Library in October 2011, in conjunction with the opening of a new exhibition, Native Voices: Native Peoples’ Concepts of Health and Illness.
