NEWS and Upcoming Events & Exhibitions
Listen to Elizabeth James Perry discuss history, current topics and such in the entertaining "Thanksgiving" episode of the NPR show "Throughline."
“Our tribal name translates to mean ‘people of the first light,'” James-Perry said. “So there’s a lot of sun symbology in our artwork, in our daily philosophy and our traditional beliefs and that comes through in even modern-day life.”
