How do we remember on this campus and beyond? At this afternoon-long open house, UMMA and our partners at Monument Lab and the U-M Arts Initiative, invite you to explore the ways memory takes shape through monuments, markers, and the stories we tell.
Event highlights include:
Regional memory practitioners, including The James and Grace Lee Boggs Center, the Detroit Sound Conservancy, Gidinawemaaganinaanig: Endazhigiyan (All My Relations: The Place Where We All Grow), and Mt. Pleasant Indian Industrial Boarding School (MIIBS) will share their work and prompt us to consider what’s worthy of a monument and whose history gets to be included. Flower-making for all ages with Monument Lab partner Aubree Penney. Live recording of the podcast Broken Boxes by Ginger Dunhill and Cannupa Hanska Luger, with artists Andrea Carlson and Matika Wilbur, 3-4 p.m. in the UMMA Auditorium. snacks by Indigenous chef Kirby Shoote (Tlingit).
In celebration of a year of examining the changing nature of monuments with Curator-in-Residence Paul Farber, Director of Monument Lab and the new exhibition You’re Welcome by Cannupa Hanska Luger.
