This event is no longer on sale.

Saturday April 23

1:30 PM  –  4:00 PM

Named in honor of Marshall McKay, former Chairman of the Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation Tribal Council and the first Native person to serve as Chair of the Autry’s Board, the Marshall McKay Seminar seeks to empower Native knowledge. It will address topics that impact Indian Country—and beyond.

 

This year’s inaugural seminar delves into the significant changes that have reshaped museums and their relationship to Native history, culture, and art. The two-day symposium, which will be livestreamed across Indian Country, will feature a variety of perspectives from Native artists, knowledge keepers, scholars, and museum professionals. Panels will explore how Native curators are changing the museum narrative, the role of tribal museums, and the interpretation of Native art, with a particularly deep dive into California Native art.

 

Convening over two days -- Friday, April 22 and Saturday, April 23 -- the Marshall McKay Seminar is open to the general public on Saturday, April 23. The session on Saturday, April 23 will be at the Autry Museum's Wells Fargo Theater. The general public is invited to participate virtually via Zoom as well. Anyone interested in the virtual events should register individually for each virtual session.
