SUMMARY:Indige-Facts Traveling Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:This ongoing program runs from Saturday\, Sept. 21\, to Sunday\, Dec. 8. \nMuseum hours are: \n\nTuesdays to Saturdays 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.\nSundays Noon to 4 p.m.\n\nAre Native Americans U.S. citizens? How many Indigenous people live in this country? Do all American Indians live on reservations? What are the right words to describe the people who have always lived here? It is common for people to have questions about the lives and experiences of Native peoples. Still\, knowing where to find answers or who to ask can be challenging. That is why the Mitchell Museum of the American Indian has set out to share information about Native Americans with the public through Indige-Facts\, its new traveling exhibit. \nIndige-Facts features facts about contemporary Native Americans. The traveling exhibit covers topics ranging from accepted terminology and population size to the sovereign rights of Native people. Indige-Facts is a great way to educate yourself on contemporary Native life in the United States. This exhibition is on loan from the Mitchell Museum of the American Indian in Evanston and is brought to Isle a la Cache Museum through the generous support of The Nature Foundation of Will County. \nFee: Free! Age: All ages. No registration required. \nIsle a la Cache Museum is an accessible facility. Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service to participate in this program should submit a request online no later than 48 hours before the program.
