We are also bringing a pop-up exhibition of South Florida Ethnographic & Archaeological collections from the Florida Museum.

Elgin Jumper is an artist, poet and musician. Several of his paintings will be exhibited during the performance.

Gordon Warehman is a storyteller, musician and the director of the Seminole Tribe of Florida’s Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki Museum on Big Cypress Reservation. The museum is home to more than 200,000 objects and is a center of Seminole culture, history and art.

Both are members of the Seminole Tribe of Florida and we appreciate the opportunity to collaborate with them and other UF partners to present this free showcase of Florida Indigenous heritage, art and music.
