Land Acknowledgement This AIRMW arts hub is located on traditional, unceded homelands including the heart of the Bodewadmiakiwen (Potawatomi) Nation, as well as lands of the Kiikaapoi (Kickapoo), Myaamia (Miami), Oceti Sakowin (Sioux), and Peoria Nations. For time immemorial, the region has been a center for indigenous people to gather, trade, and maintain kinship ties. Most tribes were removed to states including Wisconsin, Oklahoma, Kansas, Texas and other western states. Chicago, due to the 1956 Indian Relocation Act removing tribal members from their tribal lands to cities, is now a city with one of the largest urban American Indian communities in the United States. Members of this community (representing 175 tribes) continue to contribute to the life of this city and to celebrate their heritage, practice traditions, and care for the land and waterways. We embrace our commitment to Indigenous rights, racial justice, and cultural equity.
