Understanding Cultural Property -
A Path to Healing Through Communication
The Antique Tribal Art Dealers Association and the School for Advanced Research will present
Understanding Cultural Property: A Path to Healing Through Communication, with a full day public presentation by tribal representatives, specialized legal counsel, art professionals, museum personnel and various other interest groups.
The goal of the symposium is to inform the public about tribal values and to find positive and respectful solutions that will enhance rather than harm Southwest regional and tribal economic interests. Legislation will be covered by national legal experts, and the public will be introduced to and encouraged to participate in ATADA’s new Voluntary Returns initiative bringing privately-owned, important cultural objects directly back to the tribes.
