A Decade of Dedication to Seminole Contemporary Artists

In honor of all the wonderful endeavors currently unfurling, and the many incredible collaborators I've had the opportunity to serve and work with these past 10 years, here is a brief timeline of #ContemporarySeminoleArt exhibitions I've curated at The New River Inn Museum of History dba History Fort Lauderdale (formerly Fort Lauderdale Historical Society.) 

Special thanks to all the co-curators, doers, encourages, instigators and to #ElginJumper for starting it all and to the late great #JimmyOsceola for always fanning the fire.

Awan-iban

This rainy Sunday evening, I am taking just a few moments to pause and reflect on yet another dear one called home this week. Joe Martineau, Awan-iban, I am already missing your presence here. Though we may not have seen other in person this past decade, your presence and the work you did on behalf of us all requires a massive recalibration of all the kindness and hopefulness in the world. Your kindness was exponential, remarkable. I am forever grateful for the enormous feeling of trust, belief and encouragement I always notice from you whener we were faced with a new task. Thank you for all the moccasins you made, for all the pelts you tanned, and for encouraging us all to learn and practice the important traditions that help us to live a good and balanced life. Thank you for all the visits, laughs and inspiration. Thank you for supporting me and so many others in our life and community work. Thank you also for swinging by for our farewell visit. 

We will keep your encouraging words and memories close to our hearts and keep going. 

Until we meet again later, Awan-iban.

Love, Bawshkeengwabigun 🪻
