Description

Yellowstone is coordinating with Mountain Time Arts and numerous Tribal Nations to premiere a series of public, place-based projects and artworks created by an inter-Tribal group of artists and scholars in locations throughout the park. Join us to learn about historic and continued presence of Indigenous people in the Yellowstone region.

Located in Madison Junction, this project will feature 13 teepee lodges and 15 teepee rings that signify a new era of Indigenous inclusion and representation in Yellowstone National Park. The spaces represent the 27 affiliated tribal nations of the Yellowstone area. The installation will come to life with a community of Tribal representatives sharing knowledge with park visitors alongside their traditional lodges from 9 a.m. - 3 p.m. Aug. 23-27, 2022. Artworks by Sean Chandler Aaniiih; Jaune Quick-to-See Smith, Salish; Bently Spang, Tsitsistas/Suhtai (Northern Cheyenne); Wendy Red Star, Apsáalooke (Crow); and Evan Thompson, Blackfeet on display.
