Through Our Eyes, In Our Hands: Prioritizing Indigenous Knowledge in Museums will be on display at the Gregg Museum of Art & Design Tuesday-Saturday until June 27, 2026. This exhibition foregrounds Native perspectives on the stewardship of cultural belongings and the history and future of repatriation. This exhibition transforms the museum into a site of learning, self-examination, and responsibility.

Visitors are guided through the intertwined histories of museum collecting, cultural consultation, and the journey to repatriation. Archival materials, personal accounts, and community-based narratives offer insight into the significance of the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) and the ongoing work beyond its legal requirements. Rather than presenting repatriation as a transactional process, this exhibition emphasizes its cultural, spiritual, emotional, and relational dimensions—its power to restore connections and honor ancestors and communities.
