Here in a Homemade Forest: Indigenous Arts Talk 2/22

Join us at the museum on Thursday, February 22, from 12:00 p.m.-1:00 p.m. for a talk with Michael Holloman and Jacy SoHappy, who will speak about Indigenous weaving and beading practices as they relate to artworks and cultural materials featured in the exhibition Here in a Homemade Forest: Common Reading Connections. Guest curator Michael Holloman will emphasize the importance of intergenerational knowledge and the artworks as living items, not only in relation to the materials from which they are made, but also in how they are used in community. Visiting artist Jacy SoHappy will add context based on her personal experiences as a maker. SoHappy will also lead two Round Bag Weaving Workshops at the museum on February 23rd and February 24th. The talk will take place in the museum’s Pavilion Gallery and will also be livestreamed and recorded for those who cannot attend in person.

LOCATION | The Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art WSU is located in the Crimson Cube (on Wilson Road across from Martin Stadium and the CUB) on the WSU Pullman campus. For more information, please visit museum.wsu.edu/about.
