BAM is featuring five exhibitions celebrating Native American artists this year. The United Nations declared 2019 the International Year of Indigenous Languages, and this suite of exhibitions highlights Native voices, expressed through the language of visual art, in tandem with this important international declaration.

The series began with Crow's Shadow Institute of the Arts at 25 this spring. The remaining four exhibitions include our current exhibitions “Ceramics and Textiles from the Southwest,” “Sarah Sense: Cowgirls and Indians,” “Margaret Jacobs: Steel Medicine” and the upcoming exhibition, “Wally Dion: Current.”
