Drawn from Sheldon's collection, this exhibition centers artwork by Native American artists and photographs that demonstrate the everlasting presence of Native American communities. These works illustrate the spirit of visual sovereignty, a term used to describe contemporary Native American art that prioritizes the perspective of Native American artists and reclaims physical and cultural space. Visualizing Survivance, Visualizing Permanence was organized by Angel M. Hinzo (Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska), assistant professor of history and ethnic studies at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. Family-friendly events associated with the exhibition include traditional Native American dancing and a panel discussion on April 5 and activities and games on April 6. Admission is free. Museum hours: Tuesday–Wednesday 10 AM–5 PM; Thursday 10 AM–7 PM; Friday–Saturday 10 AM–5 PM; Sunday 12 PM–5 PM; Monday Closed. See the museum website for information about parking and accessibility.
