HOME
 ARIZONA’S SOVEREIGN TRIBAL NATIONS
 There are 22 sovereign tribal nations in Arizona. Long before there was a
 United States and long before there was an Arizona, people have called this
 land HOME for thousands of years. After colonization, warfare, forced removal
 and dispossession, the Federal Government created reservations, consisting of
 a small portion of traditional tribal lands. Today, approximately 28 percent of
 Arizona land is tribal land.
 Interwoven within the artwork featured in HOME, we have quotes and
 interviews with artists and Native community members from those 22 federally
 recognized tribal nations reflecting on the importance of family, community,
 land and languages.

IN THE SOUTHWEST
HOME GALLERY
Learn about the Native peoples of the Southwest and hear them tell their stories in their
own words in the Heard Museum’s signature exhibition. In addition to cultural objects,
the exhibition showcases the traditions of Native peoples of the past and present and
examines their definition of home. Don’t miss the Navajo hogan, the Pueblo horno or the
400 katsina dolls on display!

AMERICAN INDIAN
BOARDING SCHOOL STORIES
A.J. DICKEY GALLERY
This is the updated installation of
the long-running Remembering Our
Indian School Days: The Boarding
School Experience exhibition at the
Heard Museum. Since its original
opening in 2000, it has become the
Heard Museum’s most thematically
powerful exhibition. Over the past
two decades, interest in American
Indian boarding schools and
scholarship about the subject has
increased. It is a story that must
continue to be shared and one that is
central to remembering the nation’s
past and understanding its present.
