Mission

THE EITELJORG MUSEUM EXPLORES THE INTERSECTION OF THE ARTS, HISTORIES AND CULTURES OF THE PAST AND PRESENT BY SHARING THE DIVERSE STORIES OF THE AMERICAN WEST AND THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLES OF NORTH AMERICA.

  • EXHIBITIONS BETWEEN JANUARY AND JUNE 2024, MORE THAN 39,000 VISITORS EXPERIENCED FASCINATING EXHIBITIONS AT THE EITELJORG MUSEUM. THREE IMPORTANT TRAVELING EXHIBITIONS WERE ON VIEW AT THE EITELJORG. THE EXHIBIT ACTS OF FAITH: RELIGION AND THE AMERICAN WEST FEATURED CULTURAL OBJECTS, HISTORICAL DOCUMENTS AND ARTWORKS. IT EXAMINED HOW RELIGION AND FAITH TRADITIONS INFLUENCED THE AMERICAN WEST IN THE 1800S, AND HOW THE WEST ITSELF WAS INFLUENCED BY THE BELIEFS OF THE PEOPLE LIVING THERE. ORGANIZED BY THE NEW YORK HISTORICAL SOCIETY, ACTS OF FAITH WAS ON VIEW AT THE EITELJORG FROM APRIL 20 TO AUG. 4, 2024. ACCOMPANYING THE NATIONAL TRAVELING EXHIBITION WAS A LOCALLY CURATED SECTION WITH ARTWORKS FROM THE EITELJORG'S OWN COLECTIONS. THE OTHER TWO IMPORTANT TRAVELING EXHIBITIONS ON VIEW AT THE EITELJORG DURING THE FIRST HALF OF 2024 WERE ORGANIZED BY THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION NATIONAL MUSEUM OF THE AMERICAN INDIAN, OR NMAI. WHY WE SERVE: NATIVE AMERICANS IN THE UNITED STATES ARMED FORCES HIGHLIGHTED THE SIGNIFICANT PARTICIPATION OF NATIVE PEOPLES IN THE U.S. MILITARY DURING AMERICAN MILITARY CONFLICTS AND IN PEACETIME. AN EXHIBIT OF HISTORICAL PHOTOGRAPHS AND PANELS SUPPLEMENTED BY WORKS FROM THE EITELJORG'S COLLECTIONS, WHY WE SERVE WAS OPEN MARCH 23 TO AUG. 1, 2024. DEVELOPING STORIES: NATIVE PHOTOGRAPHERS IN THE FIELD FEATURED PHOTOGRAPHS BY THREE CONTEMPORARY PHOTOGRAPHERS DEPICTING ISSUES FACING NATIVE PEOPLES TODAY. A NMAI-ORGANIZED EXHIBIT, DEVELOPING STORIES WAS AT THE EITELJORG FROM MARCH 23 TO JULY 7, 2024. DURING THE OPENING MONTHS OF 2024, EITELJORG VISITORS ALSO WERE INTRIGUED BY TWO EXHIBITIONS OF CONTEMPORARY NATIVE ART. THE EITELJORG CONTEMPORARY ART FELOWSHIP EXHIBITION UNSETTLE/CONVERGE, WHICH OPENED IN LATE FALL 2023, CONTINUED AT THE MUSEUM UNTIL FEB. 25, 2024. IT FEATURED COMPELLING EXAMPLES OF BEAD ART, SCULPTURES, WORKS ON PAPER, ASSEMBLAGES AND PHOTOGRAPHS BY FIVE OF TODAY'S CUTTING-EDGE CONTEMPORARY NATIVE ARTISTS FROM THE 2023 ROUND OF THE EITELJORG FELLOWSHIP, A NATIONALY RECOGNIZED PROGRAM LAUNCHED IN 1999. EITELJORG VISITORS COULD EXPERIENCE EVEN MORE CONTEMPORARY ART IN THE LOCALLY CURATED EXHIBITION NATIVE ART HISTORY IS MADE HERE, WHICH OPENED IN 2023 AND CONTINUED THROUGH MARCH 3, 2024. WORKS FROM THE MUSEUM'S COLLECTIONS BY ARTISTS FROM THE INITIAL 1999 AND 2001 ROUNDS OF THE EITELJORG FELOWSHIP WERE FEATURED, INCLUDING PAINTINGS, SCULPTURES AND MIXED MEDIA. TODAY, THESE ARTISTS ARE RECOGNIZED AS SOME OF THE COUNTRY'S MOST INFLUENTIAL CONTEMPORARY NATIVE ARTISTS. THE EITELJORG'S PERMANENT EXHIBITIONS ARE CENTRAL TO THE MUSEUM'S EFFORTS. THE NATIVE AMERICAN GALLERIES EXHIBITION, EXPRESSIONS OF LIFE: NATIVE ART IN NORTH AMERICA, IS ORGANIZED ON THE THEMES OF RELATION, CONTINUATION AND INNOVATION. THE SPACE FEATURES ART AND CULTURAL BELONGINGS OF NATIVE PEOPLES FROM ACROSS THE CONTINENT, WITH A SPECIAL FOCUS ON WORKS BY NATIVE ARTISTS OF THE GREAT LAKES REGION. THE EITELJORG'S WESTERN ART GALLERIES EXHIBITION, ATTITUDES: THE WEST IN AMERICAN ART INCLUDES HISTORIC AND CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS AND SCULPTURES BY A DIVERSE GROUP OF ARTISTS FROM THE AMERICAN WEST. TAKEN TOGETHER, THE TRAVELING, PERMANENT AND TEMPORARY EXHIBITIONS AT THE EITELJORG FULFILLED THE MUSEUM'S MISSION AND BROADENED VISITORS' HORIZONS.
