Dogs

The temporary lobby exhibit for August is a collection of miniature dog figurines accumulated by Olive Pridemore. They are now part of the Prairie Museum of Art & History collection.

Olive enjoyed many hobbies including collecting ceramic figurines, toothpick holders, and salt & pepper shakers.

Olive was born in Colby to Elmer W. Lewallen and Lois Hamill Lewallen. She was a 1931 graduate from Colby High School. She then entered Halstead Hospital School of Nursing, graduating in 1936.
