Woody’s logo chosen for museum
Elizabeth Woody, a Warm
Springs and Navajo Indian, deve
loped her design from graphic
demerits common to Northwest
interior and coastal Indian art
work. The outer rim of the logo
is a design often found on corn-
baskets of coastal and plains
Indians. The inner rim is taken
from beadwork designs repres
enting mountains. The human
figure in the center of the logo is
the so-called X-Ray man, a petro-
glypb design common to the
stone age people of the Colum
bia River;
Woody studied creative writ
ing at the Institute of American
Indian Arts under Phillip Foss
in Santa Fe, New Mexico. She
is currently ,preparing a chap

nounced the winner of its,logo
design competition. The win
ning design by Elizabeth Woody
will be used on all Council sta
tionery and publications.
Fusion of the natural beauty
of cedar and oak with a spa
cious, aesthetic design has
created more than just an addi
tion on the Simnasho Long
house. It has resulted in a build
ing pleasing to the senses while
at the same time useful for the
community. -
The $598,000 expansion*on
the Simnasho Longhouse began
June 1,1985 after being approved
by Tribal Council through reso
lution. The primary addition
made to the east side of the pre
vious longhouse structure added
10,500 square feet to the already
ex isting 7,000 sq u are foot

To provide an amphitheater
effect for improved sound the
stage is raised with a curved
back and ceiling. Track and
spot lighting are incorporated.
Centered on the stagejs a remov
able floor for use during funerals.
