The Grand Rapids Art Museum (GRAM) is assembling a Land Acknowledgement Advisory Committee to assist museum staff in the development and implementation of a land acknowledgement. It is our hope that this acknowledgement will cultivate respect for, and honor, Indigenous peoples and serve as a first step toward building the museum’s relationship with the Indigenous community in West Michigan.
Time commitment: Approximately five, 1-hour meetings occurring from August to October 2021.
Compensation: Board members will be paid $150 per meeting for their time and labor.
Location: The Grand Rapids Art Museum is located at 101 Monroe Center, Grand Rapids, Michigan. You can find our website at
www.artmuseumgr.org. Advisory Committee meetings may be held virtually or in-person, depending on committee members' location and availability. If in-person meetings are required, participants will be reimbursed for their travel expenses.
