Come celebrate the opening of Storywork: The Prints of Marie Watt from the Collections of Jordan D. Schnitzer and His Family Foundation—an exhibition of prints, textiles, and sculptures that trace the artist’s thirty-year journey of storytelling through art. 

A member of the Seneca Nation and of German-Scot ancestry, Watt draws on Indigenous oral traditions, feminist histories, and shared mythologies to explore kinship, community, and “survivance”—the active presence and self-determination of Native peoples today. 

100% of all ticket sales are charitable contributions and fully tax-deductible.  

Please support the Utah Museum of Fine Arts, and this project, by attending the event. If you cannot attend, please consider donating here.
