Unraveling the Ribbon: Workshop

About the Project

The M has partnered with Penny Kagigebi (White Earth Ojibwe/direct descendant) to develop Queering Indigeneity, a multi-year, multi-generational project focusing on 2-Spirit, Native queer, and gender-expansive vision in great diversity and celebration.

Guided by Kagigebi, the M aims to amplify Indigenous artists and culture bearers, influencing both the types of artists supported and centered at the museum and presenting a more comprehensive, nuanced, and authentic story of Minnesotan art and artists for Indigenous and non-Indigenous visitors alike.
