We’re throwing it back with a 70s Decade Party and the opening of our 50th anniversary exhibit. Why the 70s? The museum opened in 1976, and that decade was a powerful era of cultural pride, activism, and visibility for Native communities. The American Indian Movement helped amplify Native voices, strengthen identity, and push for change—shaping the legacy we continue to honor today.
