Museums increasingly seek meaningful collaboration with Indigenous communities, yet many institutions struggle to move beyond consultation toward true partnership. In this fishbowl-style conversation, members of the Natural History Museum of Utah's Indigenous Advisory Committee share their perspectives on collaborating with museums through exhibitions, educator workshops, and youth and community programs. Together, participants will explore how institutions can build reciprocal relationships, improve reciprocal practices, and create more inclusive approaches to collections, research, and community engagement.
