One crisp November night at the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum, a joyful Lenape round dance hummed to a crescendo as the sun set over the museum’s garden. Guests at the opening night of Making Home—the design triennial co-curated by Alexandra Cunningham Cameron, Christina L. De León, and Michelle Joan Wilkinson—joined in, growing this circle and adding outside voices to the harmony of Lenape leaders. This gesture towards community was one small piece of a gorgeous, thoughtful exhibition that disassembled as much as it constructed, presenting works as human as they are rigorous and scholarly.

Making Home includes 25 projects, involving over 200 people, that present questions and ideas about what home means, how homes are made, and what homes can do. The Cooper Hewitt is the only Smithsonian museum dedicated to design, with past exhibitions ranging from fashion, architecture, textiles, and furniture—any tool that touches human life. Their program is wide ranging, yet this is the first exhibition that has approached design from such an untraditional point of view. “I think it’s important to acknowledge curatorial work as coming from a place of subjectivity, because it’s a way to talk about bias in culture and contemporary design,” says Cunnningham Cameron.

You can’t help but wonder what Andrew Carnegie—the richest man in the world during his lifetime whose home now serves as the Cooper Hewitt’s only location—would think of the use his former home is now put to. When architecture firm Babb, Cook & Willard broke ground on the mansion in 1899, the Upper East Side was relatively desolate as far as residences went—especially for the industrial magnates that made up Carnegie’s peers. Carnegie’s foresight…

Grant will fund creation of the New Jersey Center for Indigenous Justice and support growth of Native American and Indigenous Studies

The Native American and Indigenous Studies (NAIS) program of Montclair State University’s College of Humanities and Social Sciences has been awarded a three-year, $1 million grant from the Mellon Foundation to create a new center, the New Jersey Center for Indigenous Justice (NJCIJ), and to expand its programing.

With its commitment to Indigenous rights, racial justice, decolonization and eco-justice, the NAIS program emphasizes the priorities of New Jersey’s state-recognized Native American tribes – the Ramapough Lunaape, Nanticoke Lenni-Lenape and Powhatan Renape nations – which include environmental justice, political recognition, cultural heritage and language revitalization.

The NJCIJ will be a center for communication, fundraising, events and gatherings that highlight the unique questions facing Montclair’s Indigenous students and New Jersey’s tribal communities. It will coordinate the University’s work to change public narratives, increase Indigenous student enrollment and pursue justice-oriented action on issues affecting Native people in the state.

“The NJCIJ will give focus to the varied work Montclair faculty and students are doing in partnership with New Jersey’s tribal communities,” says Anthropology Department Chair Chris Matthews, a co-director of NAIS and co-Principal Investigator of the grant. “[It] will be the first and only university-based project in New Jersey that aims to transform public understanding of Native people and to do so in partnership with Indigenous communities across the…
