Join Master Boat-builder Liton Beasa and Melisa Laelan, President of the Arkansas Coalition of Marshallese (ACOM), in the Contemporary Art Galleries for a discussion about the importance of canoes and navigation in Marshallese culture.
Liton and a team of apprentice carvers worked onsite from October to November 2021 carving a korkor, a traditional Marshallese outrigger canoe, from a tree on the museum grounds. This program is part of a larger Arts and Social Impact Accelerator Program (ASAP) partnership between the artist Kholoud Sawaf and ACOM to create awareness in Northwest Arkansas of the Marshallese story by highlighting the cultural knowledge of Marshallese elders and involving Marshallese youth in the project.
Free, no tickets required.
