S'edav Va'aki Museum Indigenous Identities Exhibition Photo Release Form

S'edav Va'aki Museum call to create a photo collage wall of community submitted photographs

This Fall, S'edav Va'aki Museum is showcasing a new exhibit, Indigenous Identities. The modern art exhibit will highlight the complexity of Indigenous artists in America in the 21st century. How do these artists embrace the melting pot of cultures, technologies, and interconnectivity that is modern society? How do they push against it, and emphasize their traditional practices and Indigenous experiences? As part of this exhibition, S'edav Va'aki Museum will create a photo collage wall of community submitted photographs. What does it mean to you to be Indigenous today?
