Form and Function: Southeastern Art and Utility Among the Five Tribes

The Seminole Nation Museum proudly presents its current exhibition: “Form and Function: Southeastern Art and Utility Among the Five Tribes.”

Running from February 1st to June 14th, this exhibit features Native art and artifacts where practical, everyday use meets unique artistic expression. It showcases items integral to daily life that also serve as powerful storytellers of their culture, offering visitors a chance to discover their traditional uses, the purpose and meaning behind their ornamentation, and the cultural narratives they carry.

We encourage you to visit the Museum and explore this insightful exhibition.
