All,
Recently, the Excellence Awards WG caught up with previous Future Steward awardee Arina Melkozernova. Arina received this award in 2021 for work that advocated for and contributed to best practices that utilize Indigenous knowledge and
methodologies. Find out about her recent work at the
Smithsonian with Koasati baskets and archival materials about Choctaw culture in the Museum Support Center.
