Scheduled for 2024
Cedar and Sea
centered on Coastal Indigenous People
Working with advisors that include distinguished Indigenous scholars and craftspeople, archaeologists, and other experts, Cedar and Sea will show how tools and implements fashioned from stone, bone, shell, wood, and other natural materials
were made and used. Ranging from uniquely designed fishing and whaling canoes, houses and clothing,
to fish nets and hooks, these objects represent the culmination of many generations of innovation
by coastal Indigenous people from Yakutat, Alaska to Northern California.
