2022 SPEAKER SERIES | The Indian Arts Research Center: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow

With keynote speakers Cynthia Chavez Lamar (San Felipe Pueblo), Brian Vallo (Acoma Pueblo), and Elysia Poon.

The roles of collecting institutions continue to evolve in response to the needs of the communities they serve. Museums are increasingly looking back on past practices through a critical lens in order to move forward with a more considered approach to cultural stewardship. This keynote roundtable brings together two former IARC directors, Cynthia Chavez Lamar and Brian Vallo, and current director Elysia Poon for a deep dive into the past, present, and future of the Indian Arts Research Center.
