Show Notes

The narrative that exists for Northwest Arkansas’ Native American population is the focus of this diversity in the visual arts podcast. Bobby C. Martin, a Muscogee (Creek) artist; Bonnie Barnes, the assistant manager of the Museum of Native American History; and Macey Henley, MONAH’S cultural outreach coordinator, joined us in the Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette podcast studio to talk about how art has the ability to break down barriers and remove stereotypes for the region’s Native American population.
