Caroline Monnet: "This Old House is All We Have"

Saturday, August 8
11AM
Dennos Museum Center, NMC, TC
Art

Through the interplay of image & object, Monnet foregrounds the deep entanglement of economy, development, & the natural environment. The exhibition serves as a reminder that economic prosperity & urban expansion have historically been built upon the exploitation of land & the Indigenous peoples who have lived in relationship with it for generations. Runs June 19 - Sept. 6. See web site for hours.
