Happy Clementine Hunter Day! Today is Clementine Hunter Day in Louisiana! Declared a year ago, the idea to proclaim October 1st as Clementine Hunter day was promoted by Loletta Wynder, director of the Creole Heritage Center at Northwestern State. Wynder cited Hunter’s contribution to the state through her large body of artwork that resides in museums and galleries across the world. State Representative Kenny Cox of Mansfield stated that while Clementine was “small in stature, through her paintings and quilts, Clementine Hunter occupies a place at the pinnacle of American culture.”
