Join us tomorrow, Tuesday, January 25, at 7 pm (EST) for a special event with curator Tahnee Ahtone as she discusses the many facets of her curatorial work with the Kiowa Tribe and her recent Hyperallergic email exhibition, in which she treated readers to an exclusive viewing of the tribe’s important educational murals, previously on private view until now.

The conversation will explore how curation for a Native American community connects the realities of Native sovereignty and why it is crucial to include tribal governments when engaging with historical and artistic material related to their communities.
