Indigenous Perspectives

Indigenous Perspectives examines aspects of our collections through the lenses of the eleven federally and state-recognized Virginia tribes. In these interviews, tribal citizens offer reflections on our exhibition themes of retaining tribal culture, identity, resistance, tribal sovereignty, the land and environment, and the future of Virginia’s tribes that enlarge our understanding. Many thanks to the Library of Virginia for making this traveling exhibit possible and for loaning it to RCPL. 

On exhibit from 1/5/26 to 2/14/26
