Multimedia artist Wendy Red Star, a member of the Apsáalooke (Crow) tribe, creates art to offer a narrative of Native people in America that focuses on an Indigenous perspective. Children of the Large-Beaked Bird provides an opportunity for children and adults to look at the history and identity of a people told through their point of view. Families will find hands-on art activities alongside this engaging exhibition.
