Ongoing: The Land Carries Our Ancestors: Contemporary Art by Native Americans. Curated by artist Jaune Quick-to-See Smith (Citizen of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Nation), the exhibition highlights artworks by nearly 50 living Native artists that powerfully visualize Indigenous culture and knowledge of the land. Brought together by Smith, this multigenerational, diverse group of artists works across the U.S. and spans a range of practices, including weaving, beadwork, sculpture, painting, drawing, photography, performance, and video.
