    Following Their Roots

    Location: S'edav Va'aki Musuem

    The S'edav Va'aki Museum is thrilled to invite you to visit our latest exhibit, “Following Their Roots – Traditional Native American Farming in Arizona, Past and Present," opening October 17, 2024. This exhibit is all about exploring and celebrating the deep connections between Arizona's Indigenous communities and their agricultural traditions, offering a rich historical perspective and a glimpse into the contemporary practices that sustain these cultural lifeways today.

    Come discover how these communities have thrived for over 4,000 years, learn about farming practices unique to Arizona's diverse ecosystems, and dive into the important ongoing story of water rights in the Southwest. It is a fascinating journey through history, food, and culture that you won't want to miss!

    The exhibit will be open until Summer 2025, so there is plenty of time to check it out. We can't wait to see you there!
