| Title: | Pepsi Primetime @ the Museum – Whale People: Protectors of the Sea | | Date: | 5/14/2022 (Saturday) | | Address: | The Museum at Tamastslikt Cultural Institute, 47106 Wildhorse Blvd., Pendleton, OR 97801 | | Location: | Pendleton, OR | | Hours: | 10:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. | | Cost/Cover: | free - $12 | | Web Page: | https://www.tamastslikt.org/events/ | | Contact Info: | 541-429-7700 |
| Details: | “Whale People: Protectors of the Sea” brings the whale totem to the front lawn of Tamástslikt Cultural Institute, where visitors are invited to lay hands on it as thousands of others have on its journey. A seven-channel 90-foot-wide immersive floor-to-ceiling video installation features spectacular underwater footage of the orca, and the voices of Indigenous elders communicate a message that was at the heart of the totem’s journey: what we do to the waters we do to ourselves. The House of Tears Carvers of the Lummi Nation is traveling with a 3,000 pound carved whale totem to raise awareness about the plight of killer whale–one of the Lummi’s most revered relations. |
