Description
The washington state historical society will install a new permanent exhibition that explores the history of the more than 29 tribes of washington state with an emphasis on interpreting tribal sovereignty. The project team will contract with an exhibition fabricator to build out designs that were developed in partnership with two native curators and guided by a 10-person native advisory committee. The exhibition will include indigenous artists selected through an open call, who will create works that comment on and interpret gallery themes. As a result, tribal nations will feel that their roles in washington state history have been accurately and honestly portrayed, and visitors will have an increased understanding of tribal sovereignty and its role in state history by learning through an exhibition that centers tribal voices, perspectives, and ways of knowing.
