Description
SATURDAY, MARCH 2 - BENTONVILLE, AR: The Museum of Native American History (MONAH) is honored to host Quapaw potter, Betty Gaedtke, for the first installment of Creative Visions in 2019, to be held March 2, 2019 at 5:30 PM. Gaedtke will lead participants through the construction of their own pottery vessel, while speaking on the methodology, shapes and designs traditional to Quapaw pottery and its history within the Quapaw tribe. Creative Visions is a monthly series that invites Native Artists to speak on and lead workshops on modern and traditional forms of Native American Art. MONAH seeks to preserve and spread historical traditions by bringing them into a modern view and experience. By surrounding participants with historical Quapaw art and artifacts, they will be invited into opportunities to cultivate understanding, respect, and increased awareness of cultural context by a hands-on exploration of Native Art. Creative Visions is open to anyone ages 14 and older. Participants must register online through the MONAH website. Registration is free. Attendance will be taken at the door prior to entering the event space.
