Dear Colleagues,

As coordinator of the K'acha Willaykuna Our Unlearning Hour, I am delighted to invite you to an artist presentation & conversation with master beadwork Ojibwe artist Jessica Leigh Gokey on Weds Oct 5th, 12:30-3:30pm at the Barnett Center Collaboratory (Sullivant Hall 141) as part of the Arts + Humanities Discovery Theme: Ancient Indigenous Monuments and Modern Indigenous Arts, who are bringing Gokey to OSU for a residency to engage with the Newark Earthworks.

Gokey will give a presentation about her artistic practice between 12:30-1:30pm, then she will join us for the K'acha Willaykuna Our Unlearning Hour: Mask Dialogues from 1:30-2:30pm to discuss connections between her beadmaking work & mask making in terms of ideas of embodiment, performance & knowledge transfer. Then from 2:30-3:30pm, we will open the conversation to anyone in the OSU community & beyond who wants to learn more about her work.

This unique opportunity to engage with Indigenous arts & ways of knowing, which is not only central to our work of unlearning within the settler colonial institution of the university, but also an important moment of hospitality & reflection for us at OSU as we prepare for new hiring in Indigenous Studies across the university. <https://americanindianstudies.osu.edu/news/now-hiring-indigenous-studies-positions-ohio-state>

“I’d like to begin by acknowledging that we are on the traditional lands of many Indigenous cultures. Most recently, home of the People of the Eastern Woodlands, who migrated into the Ohio Valley after European Contact: The Shawnee  Wyandotte, Delaware, Miami, Ottawa, Peoria, Potawatomi, Seneca-Cayuga, Chippewa, among others; And the Ancients, known by their monuments: the people of the Adena, Hopewell, and Fort Ancient cultures.” - Marti Chaatsmith (Comanche Nation citizen, Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma descendant and Associate Director of the Newark Earthworks Center), acknowledgment.
