Ascending: The Liberation of Native Art

March 27 – April 26, 2026

Presented and curated by Cedar Nation, the artist exhibition will feature multidisciplinary work from several regional artists. This collection features the talent of Julia Marden (Aquinnah Wampanoag) Joshua Carter (Mashantucket Pequot) Miciah Stasis-Harding (Herring Pond Wampanoag) Kathy Atkins (Tuscarora) and Scott Foster (Hassanamisco Nipmuc).

Held at the Alexey von Schlippe Gallery at the University of Connecticut’s Avery Point campus, the exhibition is curated by Brooke Waldron (Wampanoag/Narragansett descent) with keynote speaker and guest Felicia Bartley (Pueblo of Isleta). This installation not only presents a compelling showcase of contemporary Native art but also serves as a vital bridge for promoting educational dialogue and strengthening community through shared history and expression.
