Seminole Modern: Photographs and Artifacts from a Changing Florida

In honor of Native American Heritage Month, History Fort Lauderdale will present “Seminole Modern: Photographs and Artifacts from a Changing Florida,” a visual narrative spanning two decades of Tribal contributions to our region.
The free-to-view exhibit will feature black and white, color and colorized photos plus artwork and artifacts from History Fort Lauderdale’s collection spanning the 1950s – 1960s. The exhibit depicts Seminole lifestyle and industry – including both goods made for Tribe members and tourists. Also on display will be samples of traditional, vibrant patchwork fabrics and native dresses.
“Seminole Modern: Photographs and Artifacts from a Changing Florida,” exhibit is sponsored by the following funds at the Community Foundation of Broward: Jan and Ed Crocker Unrestricted Fund, Leo M. and Alice J. Rutten Fund and The Frederick A. DeLuca Foundation Broward Community Fund. Additional funding is provided, in part, by Broward County Board of County Commissioners as recommended by the Broward County Cultural Council and Visit Lauderdale.
