Come to the Gregg Museum of Art & Design for an evening gallery walkthrough with the curatorial and collections teams. We will explore the exhibition Through Our Eyes, In Our Hands: Prioritizing Indigenous Knowledge in Museums. This exhibit foregrounds Native perspectives on the stewardship of cultural belonging and the histories and futures of repatriation. Through Indigenous voices and frameworks, the exhibition reframes long-held museum practices, asking visitors to consider questions of authority, ownership, knowledge and care.

Lee Chavis-Tartaglia, the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) collections assistant, and Meredith Osborne, a curatorial assistant, will offer insight into the significance of the NAGPRA. They will also share archival materials, personal accounts, community-based narratives in the exhibition and the process of developing the exhibition from start to finish.
