Description:
A ground-breaking opportunity honoring Native American culture and tradition is coming your way. On Thursday evening, December 6, in conjunction with the Memorial Art Gallery's exhibition Changing Hands: Art Without Reservation 3, you are invited to attend Ganondagan at the Gallery, a historic fundraiser co-sponsored by the MAG to benefit Friends of Ganondagan.

Changing Hands, the MAG's upcoming exhibit (Nov. 18, 2012 - Feb. 10, 2013) presents new works in a variety of media demonstrating how indigenous cultural values and aesthetics are being renewed by artists caught between traditional and dominant cultures.

On December 6th, you'll experience a cross-cultural and inspiring evening, helping to inform and shape the way we look at art as an expression of culture. Enjoy an exclusive tour by G. Peter Jemison, one of the exhibition's featured artists and Ganondagan Site Manager. Join us for a special multi-media presentation and a stimulating evening of conversation. Enjoy food and drink, and stay for entertainment by Iroquois social dancers.
