This session will explore different methods and processes for not only the inclusion of indigenous peoples in the exhibit design process, but how to elevate and center their voices in the heart of exhibition storytelling. Through a series of in-progress case studies, we will discuss strategies for authentic, deep partnerships and outreach, dialog, and goal setting for exhibitions that bring forward native stories.
