FORT LAUDERDALE – The public will get a chance to see the work of more than two dozen Seminole artists starting in November.

In recognition of Native American Heritage Month, History Fort Lauderdale will host “A Return to Self: The Art of
Healing,” which features works by the tribe’s most prominent artists. The exhibit will open Nov. 21 and run through Jan. 9, 2022.

“This is especially relevant now as we navigate new ways to connect with and care for loved ones during the pandemic
and learn from Native American artists who have been nurturing themselves and this land for hundreds of years,” said Patricia Zeiler, executive director of History Fort Lauderdale. “We are grateful to the Seminole Tribe of Florida for its continued support of History Fort Lauderdale during Native American Heritage Month and beyond.”
