SUMMARY:Opening July 2026
DESCRIPTION:Modernity Meets Tradition: Real Tradish explores the intersection of modernity and traditional Lakota ways.  The exhibit features work that bridges past and present—through the application of traditional techniques and symbolism\, to modern materials\, themes\, and imagery.  Together\, these pieces affirm that Lakota traditions are not gone; they are living practices that continue to adapt\, endure\, and thrive in the 21st century. \nCurated by Casey WalshFeatured artwork: Untitled – Self Portrait (c. 1988)\, Daniel Long Soldier (Oglala Lakota)

SUMMARY:"Americans"
DESCRIPTION:The South Dakota Humanities Council is bringing Americans\, a Smithsonian Institution traveling exhibition to the Aktá Lakota Museum for an exclusive tour in 2026! \nBased on a major exhibition at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Indian in Washington\, DC\, Americans explores how deeply intertwined American Indians are in the culture of the United States. \nAmerican Indians are less than 1% of the population\, yet images of Indians are everywhere.  American Indian images\, names\, and stories infuse American history and contemporary life. Pervasive\, powerful\, at times demeaning\, the images\, names\, and stories reveal how Indians have been embedded in unexpected ways in the history\, pop culture\, and identity of the United States. \nAmericans surrounds visitors with images and objects from popular culture and delves into these historical events.  The exhibition invites visitors to explore this complicated history and to share local stories about Native American history\, culture and identity. \nSouth Dakota Host and Partner Sites.\nSeptember 12 – October 31\, 2026 – SDSU Briggs Library\, Brookings\nNovember 7\, 2026 – January 9\, 2027 – Aktá Lakota Museum\, St. Joseph’s Indian School\, Chamberlain\nJanuary 16 – March 6\, 2027 – The Heritage Center\, Red Cloud Indian School\, Pine Ridge\nMarch 13 – May 1\, 2027 – AH Brown Library\, Scherr Howe Event Center\, Mobridge\nMay 8 – June 26\, 2027 – W.H.
