The Zimmerli invites educators from pre-K–12 schools and local universities and colleges to learn about the major special exhibition, Indigenous Identities: Here, Now & Always. Educators will build community together while enjoying guided tours of the exhibition with museum staff, an overview of the exhibition, and a pedagogical workshop led by Dr. Nicky Kay Michael (Delaware Tribe of Indians and Former Interim President of Bacone College), and take home a learning guide for inspiration to engage the exhibition.  

Food and refreshments will be provided.

Please register for free in advance.
