About
Our special thank you to Dr. Zepeda for reading her beautiful poetry at our opening ceremony for The REDress Project and to Rain Bear Stands Last for the film screening of his documentary Somebody's Daughter. The REDress Project, from Creator Metis artist Jaime Black, exposes the crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) and runs through May 28th at the Museum.

We are opening this internationally touring exhibition with a special ceremony featuring keynote speakers and a topical documentary by the Global Indigenous Council, entitled "Somebody's Daughter". Please join us for an afternoon of poignant reflection. This is a free event in the exhibition area and in the Museum courtyard/auditorium. Admittance to other areas of the Museum will require paying the daily fee.
This exhibition made possible through a grant from Arizona Humanities.
