SUMMARY:Diné (Navajo) Apparel Design\, Weaving\, and Womanhood
DESCRIPTION:Diné (Navajo) apparel design is constantly evolving. From wearing blankets and mantas through contemporary art\, the crafted works demonstrate design resilience and creativity. They also demonstrate hózhó (balance\, beauty\, and harmony)\, a Diné concept shown through symmetrical geometric design\, light and dark color\, and the continuance of practice through matriarchal teaching.\nJoin us at the Museum on Saturday\, November 11\, 2023 at 4pm for an illustrated talk with Lighthouse Works visiting curator Sháńdíín Brown\, the first Henry Luce Curatorial Fellow for Native American Art at the RISD Museum.

 Brown will share insights on her work and practice as a curator and discuss her current exhibition Diné Textiles: Nizhónígo Hadadít’eh\, on view at the RISD Museum in the Angelo Donghia Costume and Textiles Gallery through September 29\, 2024. This talk will be followed by a conversation with Lighthouse Works Program Director Dylan Gauthier and an audience Q&A. \nTime: SATURDAY\, November 11\, 2023 @ 4:00 – 5:00 P.M.\nPlace: at the Museum\, 2nd Floor. IN PERSON ONLY. \nEven in the off season\, signing up in advance for people attending in person is recommended. Please call 631-788-7239 or email fimuseum@fishersisland.net to reserve a seat. \nFollowing the talk\, a community dinner will be held at Union Chapel\, at 6pm. Please RSVP through Eventbrite to let us know you plan to attend. \nCommunity Dinner RSVP
