Open to all–come, and listen to a full day of presentations by tribal representatives, specialized legal counsel, art professionals, auction houses, museum personnel, and various other interest groups, all with important viewpoints to share about the complexities surrounding cultural property. The goals of the symposium are to inform the public about tribal values, and to find positive, respectful solutions and viable alternatives to legislation, that would enhance rather than harm Southwest regional and tribal economic interests.
