The Denison Museum presents “In Conversation: Will Wilson,” organized by Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art. Diné (Navajo) photographer Will Wilson’s ongoing “Critical Indigenous Photographic Exchange (CIPX)” project is dedicated to creating a contemporary vision of Native North America. Wilson combines 19th century wet plate (tintype) photography with 21st century AR technology to create new conversations about Indigenous identity.

In addition to the Denison community, we are currently able to welcome vaccinated family members of Denison students, faculty, and staff and a limited number of vaccinated community members.
