Activities Peabody Museum Tours by Harvard Students 11:00 am–12:00 pm and 2:00–3:00 pm Participate in free Peabody Museum tours led by Harvard students that connect visitors with cultural items in the museum’s care and provide examples of how the museum engages with Indigenous communities today. Gallery Talk: Spotlight on Indigenous Women Artists 1:00–1:30 pm Join Stephanie Mach (Diné), Peabody Museum Curator of North American Collections, for a short gallery talk celebrating Indigenous women as makers, matriarchs, and caretakers of communities and cultural traditions. Gallery Talk: Spotlight on Stickball 3:30–4:00 pm Join Audrey Jacob (Choctaw) and James Walkingstick (Cherokee) as they highlight the Indigenous game of stickball. Once outlawed and threatened, stickball has persisted and is still played today, even by students and staff across Harvard.

James is an apprentice stick maker and stickball player, serving as Academic Engagement Coordinator at the Peabody.

This event is presented by the Harvard Museums of Science &amp; Culture in partnership with the Peabody Museum of Archaeology &amp; Ethnology, the <a href="https://hunap.harvard.edu/">Harvard University Native American Program</a>, <a href="https://indigenousgov.hks.harvard.edu/">Harvard Kennedy School Project on Indigenous Governance and Development</a>, and the <a href="https://library.harvard.edu/libraries/fine-arts">Harvard Fine Arts Library</a>.
