Taylor Keen, member of the Omaha tribe and instructor at Creighton University, will speak to the critical role that the Missouri River tribes played in the fur trade. Focusing on the perspective of the Omaha tribe, Keen will provide a nuanced account of the economic and social interactions that took place around the Missouri river during the fur trade. This program is part of an ongoing speaker series highlighting the rich history of Nebraska and Fontenelle Forest. The speaker series is in conjunction with a new exhibit - Nebraska's Deep Roots - in honor of the 200-year anniversary of the Fontenelle Trading Post. Admission is free for Fontenelle Forest members; regular admission applies for non-members ($11 adults, $10 seniors, $8 children). For more information, visit the speaker series page.
