Interacting with various works from and about Indigenous Peoples offers visitors an interactive experience that both honors and provides education about Carolinas’ Indigenous Peoples rich history and culture. Celebrate Indigenous Peoples’ Day on Oct. 10 by exploring Indigenous Voices of the Carolinas.
