Tia Keobounpheng's exhibit DeFUSEat the Duluth Art Institute takes on the past - the traumatic past - and wonders if, having experienced trauma, there is a way for folks to diffuse (or de-fuse) the resulting emotions and behavior.

Then Wednesday night, AICHO partners again with the Duluth Superior Film Festival and Zeitgeist for the 3rd Indigenous Film Screening at 6:30 pm.

N. Scott Momaday: Words from a Bear is a documentary about the life and mind of one of Native America's most celebrated writers. After the film, series host Khayman Goodsky (Bois Forte Ojibwe tribal member and filmmaker) speaks with Anishinaabe author Linda LeGarde Grover (Bois Forte Ojibwe tribal member) about Momaday's lasting legacy.
