What does it mean to hold on to your own cultural heritage? If you lose your heritage, how do you find it again? The Greeley History Museums, 714 8^th St., presents “Reclaiming Our Heritage” a look into ways cultural groups lose their heritage and the steps they take to reclaim it. The exhibit opens July 19 and closes September 22, 2019.

Based on a grant project completed by the Immigrant and Refugee Center of Northern Colorado and the University of Northern Colorado, the exhibit features stories from Native American, Karenni, and African American communities in the United States and Denotified Tribes and Adavasi groups in India. Artifacts on display include family photos, cultural clothing and works of art.
