In celebration of The Rockwell Museum’s 50th Anniversary and in recognition of America 250, we are proud to present Native Now: Contemporary Indigenous Art at The Rockwell Museum—a bold, timely exhibition showcasing 25 years of Contemporary Native American Art from The Rockwell’s permanent collection. Join us for the opening reception and be among the first to experience this new exhibition.
Featuring powerful works by artists such as Jaune Quick-to-See Smith, Virgil Ortiz, Wendy Red Star, Sarah Sense, Hayden Haynes, and many more, Native Now centers Indigenous perspectives and honors the past, present, and future of Native creativity. With works ranging from painting and photography to sculpture and installation, this dynamic exhibition affirms the continued vitality of Native voices in American art today.
Enjoy light refreshments and a cash bar during the reception. Rockwell Members will receive a complimentary drink ticket.
