Mendocino Art Center • 45200 Little Lake Street, Mendocino, CA


Mómim Wené: Medicine Water exhibit will be on display at the Mendocino Art Center from ___ through ___.

Organized by the Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians' Exhibits and Collections Center, this dynamic exhibit includes over 40 artworks in a variety of media, including painting, photographs, prints, drawings, basketry, stonework, beadwork, and jewelry. It explores the complex relationship between essential waterways and Tribal communities, and how time and colonization have led to diverse histories throughout California Indian Country. According to one of the exhibition’s curator, Meyo Marrufo (Eastern Pomo), “Some Tribes have continuous, strong connections with their waterways, while others are flowing back to the river and regaining the genetic memory of who we are as Water People.  As we explore these relationships in our art, we tell the story of regaining, re-identifying and remaking our water traditions.”
