Karankawa Museum Gallery Exhibit

November is Indigenous People’s History Month, a time dedicated to recognizing and celebrating the rich histories, cultures, and contributions of Indigenous peoples across the United States. This exhibit’s opening in November is particularly significant as it aligns with this month of reflection and education. It provides an opportunity for visitors to deepen their understanding of the Karankawa and other Indigenous communities, acknowledging their enduring presence and influence.

“This month’s observance is also a time to reflect on the historical injustices faced by Indigenous communities and to promote efforts towards reconciliation and healing,” says Executive Director Alison Bell. “By learning about and honoring Indigenous histories and cultures, we can foster a greater understanding and appreciation of the resilience and strength of Indigenous peoples.”

Open: Tuesdays-Saturdays, 10 a.m.-4 p.m.
