A public reception is scheduled for Friday, Oct. 16, at the Southern Utah Museum of Art. The event will include a performance by the Youth Program and an art talk by Fawn Douglas.
Curated by Fawn Douglas, a Las Vegas Paiute artist, activist, and founder of Nuwu Art, the Tooveep exhibition will be held at the Southern Utah Museum of Art in Cedar City. The exhibition will feature work from emerging and established regional artists from the Southwest and Great Basin alongside artworks from the Gochman Family Collection.
The selected pieces aim to provide a visual representation of the land and its first peoples to facilitate a deeper understanding of American history through contemporary Indigenous perspectives. The exhibition will include painting, weaving, basketry, and mixed media to reflect the cultural ties of Indigenous people.
The reception is scheduled to take place from 6-8 p.m.
