Indigenous Perspectives: Traveling Exhibition

Indigenous Perspectives seeks to place the voices and experiences of Virginia’s tribal communities at the center of an active examination of the Library of Virginia’s holdings. Ultimately, the project will create an ongoing partnership between the LVA and Virginia’s 11 federally and state–recognized tribes to incorporate tribal perspectives on LVA collections and to acknowledge and recognize that Virginia’s Indigenous communities have been, and remain a vital part of Virginia’s history and and culture.

The eight-panel traveling exhibition with a kiosk and touchscreen monitor is organized around the themes of sovereignty, environment, identity, community, language, and future. For more information on this exhibition or how to bring it to your area, please email Barbara C. Batson, Exhibitions Coordinator, or call 804-692-3518.
