What do we carry within us and pass along through our family and community bonds? Connect with stories of origin, self, and culture through the work of visiting filmmaker Alanis Obomsawin (Abenaki) and an author reading of a new book for children, Where We Come From.
In Where We Come From, authors Diane Wilson, Sun Yung Shin, Shannon Gibney, and John Coy explore personal histories and what unites all of us as humans.
A program in the Walker Cinema will honor Obomsawin, an artist and prolific filmmaker whose career has continually celebrated and advocated for Indigenous life, children, and future generations.
Free First Saturday features free gallery admission on the first Saturday of every month. Gallery admission tickets are available in advance online and on-site on the event day from the Main Lobby desk; quantities are limited. Free admission 10 am–5 pm; activities 10 am–3 pm.
