Honoring a Namesake: Local artist gifts historical tribute to City of Pocatello

Last week, city leadership gratefully accepted a print of a young Chief Pocatello, the city's namesake. Local artist Tal Sampson donated the print last week, adding to the city's permanent art collection.

Chief Pocatello was a prominent leader of the Shoshone people who guided his people as they settled the Shoshone-Bannock reservation following peace negotiations with the U.S. Government.
