Join us for a special Third Thursday conversation with Rachel Allen (Nimiipuu/Nez Perce), Modern & Contemporary Art Curator at the Northwest Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art and co-curator of Joe Feddersen: Earth, Water, Sky.

Allen will share the curatorial vision behind this landmark career retrospective, offering insight into Feddersen’s four decades of artistic practice, the collaborative process of bringing the exhibition together, and the connections between his work, landscape, culture, and community. This is a unique opportunity to hear directly from one of the exhibition’s co-curators and gain a deeper appreciation for the work of an influential contemporary Native American artist.
