Osage Art: Articulations of Wahzhazhe Ways
Advertisement
The Donald Danforth Jr. Lecture on Native American Art will be given by Marla Redcorn-Miller, director of the Osage Nation Museum.
Redcorn-Miller will examine several works of Osage art from the Museum’s Danforth collection. She will focus on the life of the object as part of a cycle that includes its creation, use, and continued significance and connection to the Wahzhazhe Nikishe (Osage people).
