Staff Picks: Favorites from the Collection features objects that were selected by members of the Museum of International Folk Art (MOIFA) staff. The exhibition showcases 70 artworks from 26 countries and includes 38 recognized artists.

The selections highlight the diversity of the museum’s collection and present the perspectives of staff through their favorite works. Staff made their selections by touring museum storage, researching work in the collection, picking pieces from previous exhibitions, or choosing from a geographic area.
