Symbolism in Ceremony: Art Inspired by the Native American Church

Tuesday, March 31, 2009—Sunday, August 9, 2009
Gallery 261a
Free Exhibition

This exhibition takes its inspiration directly from personal spiritual experience. The Native American Church is a religion that blends the ancient beliefs and practices of North American Indian tribes with Christianity. The exhibition glimpses into the power and meaning of designs used by church members who created ceremony-inspired art.
