Join us for special opening weekend curatorial tours of MOA’s new exhibition, Nuxalk Strong: Dancing Down the Eyelashes of the Sun.
On the opening weekend of MOA’s latest feature exhibition, co-curators Snxakila–Clyde Tallio and Jennifer Kramer will lead visitors on a guided tour of this groundbreaking exhibition dedicated to the Nuxalk Nation.
Nuxalk Strong: Dancing Down the Eyelashes of the Sun is a powerful display of healing and sovereignty. Through this exhibition the Nuxalk Nation demonstrates their resurgence and return to Stl’mstaliwa—the full human experience. Nuxalk Strong illustrates how the Nation is bringing back ancestral governance, laws and protocols; revitalizing language; stewarding lands and waters; and awakening spirituality and ceremony by re-opening Nuslhiixwta, family treasure boxes that contain names, crests, songs, dances and regalia.
Limited capacity; first come, first served.
