November 10 – SAVAGES AND PRINCESSES: THE PERSISTENCE OF NATIVE AMERICAN STEREOTYPES
Stereotypes of Native American peoples are ubiquitous and familiar. This exhibition brings together twelve contemporary Native American visual artists who reclaim their right to represent their identities as Native Americans. Whether using humor, subtlety, or irony, the telling is always fiercely honest and dead-on. Images and styles are created from traditional, contemporary, and mass culture forms.
Doors open at 6 p.m.
November 16th – HISTORY HAPPY HOUR: CHEROKEE LIFEWAYS
Join us for a fun evening with Taylor Young from Red Clay State Park. As a part of our Native American Heritage Month celebrations, Taylor will discuss the history of Red Clay and its importance to Cherokee History. She will also be examining Cherokee lifeways, hunting, and warfare practices and showcasing items like a war club and a blow gun.
