Native Futurism: Public Dedication & Artist Talk
As the U.S. marks its 250th anniversary, multidisciplinary artist Holly Wilson, Delaware Nation Lenape and descendent of the Delaware Tribe of Indians, was commissioned to transform the Penn Museum’s East Entrance lobby with a large-scale mixed-media installation themed “Native Futurism.” During this public dedication, attendees will learn how the new installation centers an Indigenous-led perspective, offering a layered and thought-provoking addition to the nation’s evolving story. Free with Penn ID.
Special Events
Walk-through of A World in the Making
This walk-through of “A World in the Making: The Shakers,” free and open to the public, will be co-led by artist Amie Cunat and scholar Jayna Brown.

Jayna Brown, a professor of theatre arts and performance studies at Brown University and the author of “Black Utopias: Speculative Life and the Music of Other Worlds,” will center the groundbreaking legacy of Philadelphia’s own Rebecca Cox Jackson and Rebecca Perot, both co-founders of the only Black-led Shaker settlement.
