Indigenous Speakers Series: Transformational Paths for Indigenous Libraries, Archives and Museums

It's time for another season of our popular Indigenous Speakers Series!
On Tuesday, September 16, our first program of the fall 2025 series focuses on Indigenous cultural institutions. It's a subject near and dear to Alyce Sadongei (Kiowa/Tohono O'odham).
Sadongei has been a leader in the museum field for many years. She is a staunch advocate for tribal libraries and archives and the preservation of oral history, and a founder of current training opportunities available at the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian. She's an author, a historian, a cultural advocate, a leader and a quietly humble force of change. Based in Tucson, Arizona, Sadongei lives a life dedicated to celebrating and preserving Indigenous lifeways.
Join us at the Museum to hear from Sadongei and discover how a predominantly Western concept of a museum is being defined by Indigenous museum professionals.
📅 Tuesday, September 16 | 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm, doors open at 6:00 pm
🎫 $5 to $20, 20% discount for members; FREE for Tribal members
With support from Deschutes Cultural Coalition
