Whaling museum’s scrimshaw exhibit explores 19th-century bone and ivory art

A new exhibition is looking at the traditional art form of scrimshaw through a wider context and contemporary lens. “The Wider World and Scrimshaw” at the New Bedford Whaling Museum in Massachusetts is telling the story through objects. Jeffrey Brown has a look for our arts and culture series, CANVAS.
