Water Rights: Local Justice, Advocacy, Art and Native Perspective
Thursday, December 7th, 5:30-7pm / Free & open to the public
All My Relations Gallery, 1414 E Franklin Ave #1, Minneapolis, MN
Join AMRA and NACDI as we welcome a panel discussion on water rights, activism and advocacy through Native perspectives. Hear what local Native organizers and organizations are doing to forge the movement on water rights and rethink our relationship to water. There will also be opportunities for questions and ways to get involved locally and nationally.
This event is part of programming for Aabijijiwan / Ukeyat yanalleh, a collaborative exhibition reflecting on the Misi-ziibi (Big River, Ojibwe) by artists Karen Goulet (White Earth Ojibwe) and Monique Verdin (Houma), currently on view through January 13, 2024.
Join us for an evening of education, engagement and art moderated by water protector Tara Widner, with panelists Shelley Buck, Gabby Menomin, and Maggie Lorenz. There will be light snacks at 5:30 pm with the discussion starting at 6 pm.
