Wow -- the exhibit, "Indian Theater: Native Performance, Art, and Self-Determination Since 1969," absolutely blew my mind! This is such a major exhibit and so important from a variety of standpoints. Vital and thought-provoking on a political level, a sociological level, an avant-garde art level, a historical level, a Native American symbolic and artistic level, a feminist level, a Two-Spirit level, a drama/theater level, a musical level, a multi-media level, a philosophical level....just so amazing in every way. This is a huge exhibit and has been running for awhile. I hope, hope, hope to get back at least once. It is a lot to take in. I learned a lot and was very inspired by the breadth and depth of this amazing grouping of artists. As for the venue, the museum is free and the grounds are terrific. The bathrooms are clean and there is even a device at the water fountain so you can fill up your water bottle. There are also seats outside and inside if someone in your group gets tired. I love BARD. I am so thankful for BARD's role in the community. I can't believe I saw all this for free.

Checked out the exhibit entitled "Indian Theater: Native Performance, Art, and Self-Determination since 1969". An eclectic collection of contemporary art by Native, First Nation, Metis, Inuit artists. A must see on the Bard Colleges campus which is a beautiful campus to walk around. 100 acres, a beautiful Shakespeare garden and a lovely view of the Hudson.

The museum is much larger than I expected. I only was there for and hour, so we just saw half of the art and then spent 20 minutes at the gardens. You can easily spend 2-3 hours there. Gorgeous view and outdoor spaces. Highly recommended. Due to covid restrictions, reservations are required. Call ahead.

Modern art primarily, though it is an outstanding facility.
