Final Opportunity to Explore Wisdom from the Future with Chief Curator Diana Pardue
Don’t miss your last chance to experience Wisdom from the Future through a curator-led perspective. Join Diana Pardue, Heard Museum Chief Curator, for a 30-minute talk highlighting how this exhibition brings together twenty-five renowned Indigenous artists to reflect on their creative journeys and the guidance they would share with their younger selves.
Featuring artworks paired with personal messages of motivation, resilience, and creative discovery, the exhibition offers a rare look into the evolving practices of groundbreaking artists, including:
| – Kay WalkingStick (Cherokee) – Norbert Peshlakai (Diné) – Preston Singletary (Tlingit) – Tony Abeyta (Diné) – Verma Nequatewa (Hopi) |
– Nora Naranjo Morse (Tewa, Kha’P’o Ówîngeh) – Juanita Growing Thunder Fogarty (Fort Peck Assiniboine/Sioux) – Barbara Teller Ornelas (Diné) – Richard Zane Smith (Wyandot) |
As the Heard Museum’s final Curator Talk for this exhibition, this is an ideal opportunity to explore the powerful stories and artistic innovations on view—before the show concludes. Join us to celebrate the artists who continue to shape the future of Native art.
Included with museum admission and FREE for members. Tour meets at the Info Desk.
