The Leonor R. Fuller gallery is honored to present a themed exhibition, curated by Philip Red Eagle, which engages viewers and the community celebrating the art and culture of our Native community members. The exhibition highlights work from Robert Charloe, Selena Kearney, Linley Logan, Josh Mason, Susan Pavel, and Robert Upham.
The 13th Annual Native American Art Exhibition is a celebration of First Nations artists, young and old, from tribes around the Pacific Northwest and Native artists from around the country who have relocated to the region.
Shaped and selected by guest curators from the Salish community, this vibrant exhibition showcases traditional and contemporary art forms and culture foregrounding Native cultural expressions and perspectives in meaningful, inclusive contexts.
The deep importance of this ongoing collaboration is to broaden historical, cultural, and aesthetic understandings in community.
We are on Indigenous Land.
South Puget Sound Community College is located on the ancestral lands of the Steh-Chass band of the Squaxin Island Tribe and Nisqually Indian Tribe, who have long been stewards of the region’s waters, plants, and animals. The southernmost point of the Salish Sea, these lands were—and still are—a place of gathering, trade, and community for many Coast Salish peoples. We recognize that all who are not Salish peoples are visitors here. We commit to join these peoples to share their history, build relationships, increase representation, and restore the living world around us.
