Iroquois Beadwork: Through the Voices of Beads
May - September
Iroquois Beadwork: Through the Voices of Beads: Consists of about 20 pieces on loan from the Royal Ontaro Museum collections, both historically and contemporary, and about 10 works from the collection of Iroquois beadwork artists Samuel Thomas. One of the goals of this exhibit is to reveal the meaning expressed in Iroquois beadwork, meanings that remain embedded in Iroquois culture to this day. A second goal is to show that this art, like the Iroquois people themselves, still thrives.
