Events

The Natural History Museum is pleased to participate in the group exhibition “Flood Tide of Resistance”, curated by Oliver Ressler. This exhibition brings together artists who produce works in dialogue with the climate justice movements related to both land and sea, in which they consider themselves participants.

See the Whale People exhibition this May 27-29 at the Lummi Nation Stommish Grounds, during the Gathering of the Eagles canoe journey, Honoring Celebration of Master Carver Jewell James, and the Alliance of Earth, Sky, and Water Protectors Summit. 

Spirit of the Waters Totem Pole Journey brings together ceremony, art, science, spirituality, ancestral knowledge, and cross-cultural collaboration in support of the movement to remove the Snake River dams and restore to health the Snake River salmon and the orcas that depend on them.

Whale People: Protectors of the Sea is an outdoor exhibition featuring a 3,000 pound orca totem pole, salmon carvings, and an award-winning IMAX-style film projection that tells the story of today’s environmental emergency through the figure of the orca.

 The Language in Common group exhibition presents artistic practices that site language in the space between poetry, visual art, and performance. The exhibition brings together five artists whose work engages with politics on the periphery of hegemony.
