Special Program: Honoring Fire Kinship

Join us for a special closing gathering in honor of , the Fowler Museum’s second PST ART exhibition. Fire Kinship challenges dominant attitudes of fear and illegality surrounding fire, advocating for a return to Indigenous practices in which fire is understood as an essential element of land stewardship, community well-being, and tribal sovereignty. Centering the knowledge and expertise of the Tongva, Cahuilla, Luiseño, and Kumeyaay peoples, the exhibition highlights a living history of Native communities past and present.
All are welcome to come together and celebrate the final weeks of this exhibition. The program will open with song and music by Lazaro Arvizu Jr., followed by reflections and remarks from California Indian community members. Attendees are invited to gather, connect, and spend time in the exhibition to reflect on the role of fire stewardship in our shared futures.
