Lewis & Clark and the Indian Country is a traveling exhibition
based upon a larger exhibition of the same name developed by the
Newberry Library, Chicago.
The exhibit will bring public audiences a new set of ideas about the
encounters of Native Americans with the United States Corps of Discovery
between 1804 and 1806, and will trace the dramatic impact of those
encounters during the subsequent two centuries. Exhibit visitors will be
offered unique opportunities to explore the “Indian Country” as it
existed at the beginning of the nineteenth century; to glimpse the
variety of relationships Native peoples and the Lewis and Clark party
forged with one another; to view the impact of the American presence on
the Indian Country; and to reflect on the efforts of contemporary
reservation communities to support and sustain the Indian Country and
its remarkable cultures in the twenty-first century.
