MPM’s program nicely segues with our designated donation in October:  Honor the Earth.  And, it’s free (and Dawn Sher Thomae is excellent!)

Enjoy!

> MPM’s Native American galleries on the Second Floor illustrate the connection that America’s first people had with the land. Their ingenuity and ability to adapt to their surroundings supported them as they settled across a broad range of environments and developed into hundreds of culturally diverse tribes. Join MPM educators for drop-in programming on Thursdays and Fridays from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. during November. Additional programming will be held on Saturday, November 6 from 10:30 a.m. - 2:30 p.m.

This presentation will provide an overview of the law, how MPM works with the U.S. government and Native groups, and the ways that NAGPRA has impacted the MPM’s collections, exhibits, and programs.
