About the Exhibition

September 26, 2026 – August 2028 in the Samuel & Minna Grodin Gallery 

This exhibition explores the history of federal treaties and the complexities of treaty history in California. Through archival materials, contemporary objects, images and voices from local tribal communities, visitors will gain a more nuanced understanding of our state's history as well as an appreciation for the strong sense of place felt by community members.

Land Acknowledgment

The Autry Museum of the American West acknowledges the Gabrielino/Tongva peoples as the traditional land caretakers of Tovaangar (the Los Angeles basin and So. Channel Islands). We recognize that the Autry Museum and its campuses are located on the traditional lands of Gabrielino/Tongva peoples and we pay our respects to the Honuukvetam (Ancestors), ‘Ahiihirom (Elders) and ‘Eyoohiinkem (our relatives/relations) past, present and emerging.
