Join the Mitchell Museum of the American Indian for an evening packed with exciting unveilings of new experiences. Be among the first to witness the unveiling of their new mural and meet the nine young artists that created it. The mural is part of a collaboration with St. Kateri Youth Circle, a non-profit that provides programming on Native American values and traditions for Native youth in the Chicago area. We will also be revealing our new online exhibit that highlights the exceptional children’s books Atika’s Medicine and I’m Not A Costume by author Maria Des Jarlait (Arikara, Ojibwe), who will also be on hand to share her stories and sign copies of her books for attendees.
The evening will also include food catered by Native American Foods and casual tours of our new Indigenous Medicine Garden as well as our Collections!
This event is open to the public. Admission is free for Mitchell Museum members and Tribal Citizens; $25 for non-members.
