Past Exhibits & Displays

The Anthropology Museum uses the hallways on the 2nd floor of Landrum to highlight our collections with small displays and also by hosting Photography Exhibits by anthropological photographers on topics of cultural interest. Occasionally the Anthropology Museum curates visual exhibits at other campus venues.

Past exhibits and displays are listed below.

Native American Awareness - Indigenous Issues: Historic and Contemporary (Photography Exhibit, Fall 2022-Summmer 2023) This exhibit was based on research and consultation with Native American friends by photographer and Anthropology Alumn, Gregory Rust. The exhibit reflected historic and contemporary issues that are important to many indigenous peoples. As with any topic, there is never total agreement on any issue. An objective of the exhibit was to raise awareness and stimulate dialogue.

Katchinas: Vibrant Spirits of Hopi Culture Display (Spring 2022-Summer 2024)
