Join us for a tour of the award-winning exhibition, Repainting the I: The Intermountain Intertribal Indian School Murals (recipient of the 2025 Charles Redd Center for Western Studies Award for Exhibition Excellence), at the Nora Eccles Harrison Museum of Art. This exhibition tells a story that is too often unheard—the experiences of Indigenous students at the largest residential boarding school in the United States—and the role art played in shaping the students’ identity and resilience. At its heart are eleven murals rescued from the abandoned Intermountain Indian School (1950–1984) in Brigham City, Utah. These conserved murals, which once adorned the walls of the school buildings, now stand alongside historical artifacts, documents, and art created by local children inspired by the school. We will also get a behind-the-scenes tour of the museum's collection, galleries in mid-installation, and the newly opened Wanlass Center for Art & Education. After we finish at the museum, join your colleagues for dinner at Fredrico's (pay your own way) located at 1349 East 700 North, Logan, UT 84321.
