“Talkin’ Bout a Revolution: A Haudenosaunee Response to the 250th” is the featured exhibition at the Iroquois Museum in Howes Cave, NY, now open and running until November 29, 2026.
The exhibit challenges the mainstream American narrative of the 250th Anniversary of the American Revolution, exploring the often omitted negative impacts the Revolution had on Haudenosaunee sovereignty and the splitting of the Iroquois Confederacy.
There will be a special opening and panel discussion of the exhibition and the Revolution on Sunday, May 17, from 1 until 4 pm.
From Oneida, Wisconsin, to Akwesasne, participating artists in the exhibit will discuss their pieces and dialogue with each other and the audience about this widely celebrated American anniversary.
Several of the artists will join the event in person or via Zoom, streamed live at the Museum. Refreshments will be served. This event is included in Museum admission.
