Paddle Strong: An Evening with the Artist

Join artist Brittney Peauwe Wunnepog Walley (Nipmuc) for a forum exploring her installation Chemacheg Menuhki: Paddle Strong at the Concord Museum. Walley will discuss her basket – woven with traditional techniques and layered with Indigenous history – and share the story of the Nipmuc people held in Concord in 1675 before their forced removal. In conversation, Walley will reflect on her artistic process, the meaning behind the work, and the ongoing resilience of Indigenous communities in New England.
