417 volunteers strong by Deborah Kish We couldn’t do what we do at the Eiteljorg without our 417 wonderful volunteers who give so unselfishly of their talent and time. In 2014, these men and women gave 16,346 hours to the museum. On April 16, we honored our helpers at the annual Eiteljorg Volunteer Recognition Dinner. They enjoyed a fabulous feast and were entertained by storyteller Jamison Fisher. Fisher portrays Belinda Mulrooney—who was one of the richest women in the Klondike at the turn of the 20th century. A special congratulations went to top Intern Rebekah Ryan who volunteered 496 hours, and Sharon Mills who volunteered 442 hours in 2014.

PRESIDENT’S LETTER This summer at the Eiteljorg Museum, we are making the familiar brand new. Friends, Stroll along the Indianapolis Canal Walk and you will notice an eye-catching new addition: a set of graceful sails suspended over the Eiteljorg’s Christel DeHaan Family Terrace. The Sails, designed by Jonathan Hess, principle of Browning Day Mullins Dierdorf, will transform the museum’s gardens. Capital costs for The Sails were provided through the visionary support of the Efroymson Family Fund and its parent, the Central Indiana Community Foundation (CICF), and Eiteljorg Board member Steve Cagle. And, thanks to a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund and The Margot L. and Robert S. Eccles Fund, both funds of the CICF, our newly-shaded space will come alive this summer with music, storytellers and family-friendly activities. Beginning June 3, the Eiteljorg will stay open late on Wednesday evenings, allowing guests to view our monumental garden sculpture, pan for gold and even sip a frosty margarita from our café, in the cooling shade of The Sails, until 8 p.m. Our nationally-regarded Indian Market and Festival, now in its 23rd year, will also get a boost from the renewed garden space. On June 27 and 28, the event will expand to the museum-side of the canal. Not only that, the festival will feature new food options, reimagined opening festivities, a more engaging atmosphere and a return of the popular Indian Market and Festival smartphone app that puts enhanced festival and artist

information at visitor fingertips. My gratitude goes to the creative leadership of board members Pat Anker and John Timothy, Jr. MD (Muscogee Nation), who along with Festivals Manager, Jaq Nigg, have devised many new ideas to refresh and enliven this wonderful event. A newly-shaded terrace will also enable the museum to host new major events and bring back a community favorite. Don’t miss our planned celebration of the 150th anniversary of Juneteenth this summer (June 20), and the revival of our annual WestFest (Aug. 1). If you were a fan of Jammin’ at the Jorg, you’ll love Jammin’ in July! This new music series will feature outdoor concerts by local musicians each Wednesday night in July from 5–8 p.m. So bring a friend, grab a cool drink, pull up a chair and enjoy live music under The Sails this summer. At the same time the Eiteljorg launched The Sails, we also dedicated the gate leading from the Canal into our terrace. In recognition of his support for the project, the museum is naming the gate in honor of Steve Cagle and his Family, as the portal that welcomes the community onto the museum’s grounds. We offer a special thanks to Steve for his generosity and vision. I also wish to acknowledge the extraordinary efforts of Wilhelm Construction in getting the project completed on time in spite of major obstacles. Please join us in celebrating the summer in a new way.

Make plans to spend some times under The Sails at the Eiteljorg Museum.

John Vanausdall stands under the new shade structure covering the Christel DeHaan Family Terrace.

Sincerely,

John Vanausdall President and CEO Eiteljorg Museum

COVER STORY

INDIAN MARKET & FESTIVAL JUN 26–28

Celebrating the Past, Living the Present, Ensuring the Future by Jaq Nigg Storytelling is a diverse and powerful medium of imagery and description. Stories are both the key and the door to other times, peoples, and cultures. They illustrate the lives and values of Native peoples, giving perspective on life in America before contact, as well as after the dramatic changes post contact. The role of storytelling in piecing together the past is important, but the continued importance of storytelling in contemporary Native cultures reflects the significance of changes to values and daily life. There are as many different stories as there are tribes, stories that document history and illuminate the physical past; creation stories that establish the origin of life and values; educational stories that teach lessons and morals; healing stories; and humorous stories that entertain and captivate audiences, usually while teaching lessons. 2

Culture bearer David R. Boxley (Tsimshian)

At this year’s Indian Market and Festival, we will celebrate the artistry and cultural importance of storytelling told through stories, artwork, music, dance, humor, film and food. The 1491s Admired by their fans for poking fun at certain characteristics within Native communities and offering unexpected insights into contemporary life, the sketch comedy group 1491s has received national recognition for its mix of irreverent, ironic, quixotic, highly infectious and somewhat dark humor. Using The 1491s performance art and social media, they have built a large following challenging perceptions and taking aim at the appropriation of Indigenous cultures. Or, in their own words: “We are based in the wooded ghettos of Minnesota and buffalo grass of Oklahoma. We are a gaggle of Indians chock full of cynicism and splashed with a good dose of Indigenous satire.” Eiteljorg Museum Storyteller Magazine

They celebrate Native cultures, traditions, family life and respect for Mother Earth and the environment with contemporary and historical stories that honor tribal family values.

PROGRAMMING Juneteenth at the Eiteljorg—A free community wide celebration! by Alisa Nordholt-Dean What is Juneteenth? Even though Abraham Lincoln effectively ended slavery when he issued the Emancipation Proclamation on Jan. 1, 1863, freedom wasn’t within reach for many until years later. In the days prior to televisions and smart phones, it could be years before important information touched the borderlands. In geographically isolated Texas, news of the end of the Civil War did not reach Galveston Island until May 1865. In June of that year, Union General Gordon Granger read aloud the contents of “General Order No. 3” to Galveston residents, announcing the total emancipation of slaves. This historic moment has come to be known and celebrated in the years since as Juneteenth or Emancipation Day—a day to celebrate freedom.

Why celebrate? When they heard the news, nearly 250,000 slaves in Texas must have been shocked, fearful of an uncertain future and ultimately filled with joy, ecstatic at the prospect of beginning a new life. At war’s end, they were finally granted freedom. Former slaves were free to travel for the first time, free to legally marry, free to search for family members, free to learn, free to choose their own occupation and free to worship. The jubilation and festivity following this profound news led to the tradition of celebrating freedom on June 19 each year. The Juneteenth celebration was a time for gathering family and community members together, sharing stories, enjoying food, and generally enjoying one another’s company. Today, celebrations continue to take

place around the country and include elements like barbecuing, baseball, music, rodeos, storytelling, prayer services and so much more. Join the celebration! Juneteenth is all about bringing people together in honor of freedom, so make plans now to join us at the museum on June 20 for a community-wide celebration, commemorating the 150th anniversary of Juneteenth. Partners like Asante Children’s Theater, Freetown Village, Black Cowboy Association, Indiana African American Genealogy Group, Indiana History Center, Indiana State Museum, Children’s Museum of Indianapolis, Madame Walker Theatre, Crispus Attucks Museum, IUPUI and so many others will provide an exciting day of music, performances,

food and fun for the entire family. Chat with community groups, learn how to trace your family history, create art, hear personal memories of Juneteenth as told by Texas native, Faye Williams, and explore what freedom means to you and your family. In honor of the 150th anniversary of Juneteenth, the celebration and admission to the museum on June 20 will be free for all. A detailed schedule for the day can be found at eiteljorg.org.

Quest for the West 10th anniversary showing by James H. Nottage From the first Quest for the West® Art Show & Sale in 2006, the event was highly ranked among similar productions across the country. In the years since, Quest’s position as a premier Western art event has been confirmed, and each year artists and patrons alike look forward to this as one of the nation’s best annual sales shows. Last year’s show, which attracted more than 300 collectors and 50 celebrated artists, generated nearly $1.1 million dollars in sales. When Quest opens to registered attendees on Friday, Sept. 11, it will celebrate the 10th anniversary of this exciting event. Weekend plans call for tours of collector homes on Friday and a special party that evening. Guests will be entertained and dance to the music of the Wright Brothers, enjoy great food, and experience a special performance by Wyatt Earp, played by the

CURATOR’S CORNER Multi-million dollar art gift donated to the Eiteljorg by James Nottage The Eiteljorg Museum has been given a historic collection of Western paintings and Native American artifacts. This multi-million dollar gift includes hundreds of objects and works of art including significant paintings by Frederic Remington, Charles Russell, Thomas Moran, Albert Bierstadt, N. C. Wyeth, Frank Tenney Johnson, Charles Schreyvogel, E. Martin Hennings, Joseph Sharp, E. I. Couse and more of the most notable painters of the West. Hundreds of important examples of Plains beadwork, clothing, and other Native American objects are of equal importance to the growth of our holdings in those areas. In announcing the gift, President and CEO John Vanausdall notes the museum will honor the donor’s wish to remain anonymous, but the museum gives deep thanks for such a remarkable contribution. “This is an astonishing gift that enriches the museum and

its offerings to the public in a deep and meaningful way,” said Vanausdall. “It further demonstrates the status of the Eiteljorg as a leader in the fields of Native American and Western art. It is one of the largest and most important gifts of Western and Native art since the museum’s initial founding.” The collection arrived at the museum’s loading dock aboard two climate-controlled, air-ride trucks. With this, the staff began an arduous but exciting process of unpacking, sorting, examining, cataloging, and otherwise processing each item.

of all the items. Conservators have started examinations for possible cleaning or other treatments. While we have known the collection for many years, this is the first time each piece has been closely studied. The staff is excited about the many new opportunities we will have to change and

improve existing exhibitions. We wanted our members to be the first to know about this important event. As works go on exhibit, we will keep members advised.
