Virtual Parlor Chat: Indigenous New York with Oleana Whispering. An introductory oral historical account and cultural interpretation of the Indigenous ethnos and landscape of New York from 1654 to today.
What was the landscape and community life of the place known then as Manahatta and known today as Manhattan? Who were the first tribes that the Dutch encountered and formed relations with? How did Pearl Steet inherit its name? Did the Dutch influence or impact the indigenous people? Were NewYork’s Indigenous expunged with the Indian Removal Act? Who were the chiefs, and did they live in a patriarchal or matriarchal society?This dialogue answers questions rarely addressed based upon documented historical records and taps into how they exist today in the shadows of an internationally famous metropolis.
About the speaker: Oleana Whispering Dove has worked as a museum professional for over 20 years and curates Native American programs, spotlighting Traditional and Contemporary Indigenous artists. Likewise, Oleana is Smithsonian Museum-trained in Lenape Indigenous history and fulfills public speaking engagements on the topics of Carving Out a Legacy and Historic Native American Women Chiefs, which reflect her Indigenous heritage as a Native American descendant .
SEEING WITH A CAMERA with Aliza Holtz
An Introduction to How the Camera Sees—and How That Affects Your Photographs
Have you ever taken a photograph that didn’t match what you saw or felt in the moment? This 90-minute experiential workshop introduces a simple but powerful idea: the camera sees differently than you do. By learning to recognize that difference, you can begin to create photographs that more closely reflect your intention. Seeing with a Camera is designed for anyone curious about photography—whether you’ve never picked up a camera or have years of experience. No technical background is required.
