Her inspiring life is the story of the most decorated member of the Seminole Tribe of Florida, a political activist, former nurse, alligator wrestler, and beloved storyteller renowned for passing along tribal legends.
Award-winning author Patsy West is director of the Seminole/Miccosukee Photographic Archive in Ft. Lauderdale and an active preservationist.

NSU’s College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences (CAHSS) is pleased to invite you to “The Theory of Creativity Art and Design Senior Exhibit,” held February 20-March 6, 2019. Each year, students enrolled in ARTS 4995 Senior Project within the Department of Performing and Visual Arts (DPVA) get to craft their own exhibition. As a group they collectively select a name and theme, design promotion materials, and market it. This exhibition serves as an annual opportunity for graduating students to curate a culmination of their work while at NSU in a gallery setting. This exposes their pieces on a public scale, and allows them to openly discuss their artistic intentions to viewers. The exhibit opens on Feb. 20, 2019 and runs through March 6, 2019, in Gallery 217, located on the 2nd floor on the north end of the Don Taft University Center.
The opening reception is on February 20 from 5:00-7:00pm in Gallery 217. Admission is free and open to the public.
