Penn Museum opens Native North America Gallery after two-year overhaul

The Penn Museum at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia will open its new 2,000-square-foot Native North America Gallery on Saturday, November 22, after two years of planning. The long-term exhibition replaces the 2014 show "Native American Voices: The People—Here and Now," which was curated by Lucy Fowler Williams with around 80 Native consultants but felt fragmented. This time, Williams and co-curator Megan C. Kassabaum worked closely with eight Native American curators—not just advisors—to determine the stories told. The gallery highlights moments of rupture, loss, and betrayal alongside resilience, and includes an empty vitrine to acknowledge repatriation efforts and culturally sensitive objects that tribes prefer not to display.
