Celebrate Native American Heritage Month

Works by Native artists can be found around the Museum, including Tribal Map by Jaune Quick-to-See Smith in “Counter History,” and a group of blackware pottery by Pueblo artists in “Stories Artists Tell.” Explore these works with Marina Tyquiengco, Ellyn McColgan Associate Curator of Native American Art, through two new stops on MFA Mobile on Bloomberg Connects.

Dive deeper with Tyquiengco as she takes a closer look at Fritz Scholder’s Bicentennial Indian, which features prominently in the MFA’s reimagined 18th-century Art of the Americas galleries, opening with the 250th anniversary of American Independence in 2026.
