SUMMARY:The Quilt — Owíŋza Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:The Quilt – Owíŋža exhibit features quilts from 1893 to contemporary that are in the Aktá Lakota Museum’s private collection. \nThese quilts are a testament to the powerful tradition\, aesthetic\, artisanship\, and resiliency of the Lakota culture. When the buffalo was at the center of Lakota life\, beautifully decorated hides\, often with striking circular patterns\, were common. As colonialism brought about the near-extinction of the buffalo\, the Lakota turned to quilt-making to replace many of the functions — both utilitarian and ceremonial — that hides performed. \nThe star quilt held special appeal because of its circular pattern and rhythmic repetition. “Everything the power of the world does is done in a circle\,” said Lakota spiritual leader Black Elk\, expressing the centrality of the circle to Lakota thought. Today the star quilt is often the centerpiece in Lakota celebrations and ceremonies.  The exhibit will be on display through the end of the year. \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:MUSEUM MONDAY — Robyn KnechtEquine Therapy — Meet Our Horses
DESCRIPTION:To the Lakota\, a šúŋkawakȟán — horse — is a relative. A four-legged friend and companion that provided transportation\, friendship\, and pride. The horse is revered for its grace and bravery. \nToday\, many Lakota people still look to the horse to provide healing from trauma\, anxiety\, and mental and emotional distress\, among others. \nHealing from internal or external wounds was the purpose behind launching the equine therapy program at St. Joseph’s Indian School. \nNow in the program’s second year\, it continues to grow. Last year\, horses had to be transported to and from campus for therapy sessions. Now\, horses live on the north end of campus\, creating the opportunity for more students to take part in the equine therapy sessions. \nIn this presentation\, Robyn Knetch\, Director of Counseling & Service at St. Joseph’s Indian School\, and Patty Coleman\, Equine Specialist Caretaker will talk about the importance of equine therapy in the lives of our children.  Participants will also be invited to tour our future horse barn complex site.
