The University of Oregon community is invited to the Erb Memorial Union Amphitheater on Kalapuya land Oct. 13, Indigenous Peoples Day, for a joyous noontime ceremony to replace the nine tribal flags.
Coordinated annually by the Native American Student Union, the event features speakers and performances by students, employees and tribal members.
The Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art and the Museum of Natural and Cultural History will be open extended hours. Of special note at the art museum is the exhibition “James Lavadour: Land of Origin.” The paintings showcase the Umatilla Indian Reservation and surrounding Blue Mountains region. The Museum of Natural and Cultural History’s current exhibition “Transgressors” features now and future Indigiqueer ancestors.
