Showcasing more than 30 First American artists, each piece is a unique collaboration between two or more artists. By incorporating their own medium and interweaving culture, experiences, and relationships, these artists have developed a display representing the unique facets of the contemporary First American art world.
On the same evening the Jacobson House will be honoring one of our founding members, Jeraldine "Jeri" RedCorn (Caddo/Citizen Potawatomi) who has been recognized both nationally and internationally for reviving Caddo Pottery, RedCorn was inducted into the prestigious American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2021.
An invited guest of the “Collective Wisdom” reception who will help honor, Jeraldine "Jeri" RedCorn alongside the Jacobson House Board Members is, Osage Nation tribal member Scott George, whose song “Wahzhazhe (A Song for My People)” from the film Killers of the Flower Moon, is a 2024 Oscar nominee for “Best Original Song.”
