In conjunction with the special exhibition Artists of the American West, the museum will present Dr. Brian Baker, a professor in the Native American Studies Program of the Department of Ethnic Studies at California State University Sacramento. He will address the way the Plains Indians were represented in the works on display in this exhibition. Dr. Baker will offer insight into certain cultural traditions such as the use of feathers, tattoos, regalia, and clothing of the different Indian Nations. He will also explore the ways non-Indian artists have represented Indian culture. A scholar on indigenous cultures, Dr. Baker belongs to the Bad River Chippewa, a tribal nation along Lake Superior in Northwestern Wisconsin. Seating for this special illustrated presentation will be available when the museum opens. For more information, contact Elisa Barosso at (209) 940-6332 or education@hagginmuseum.org.
