Land Acknowledgment

Land Acknowledgment

Cambridge Art Association (CAA)  is located on the traditional and ancestral land of the Massachusett people, the original inhabitants of what is now known as Cambridge. We acknowledge the painful history of this land, and the continued displacement of indigenous people in Massachusetts, where the CAA presents exhibits, educates artists, and connects with the broader community.  


Below, we are sharing links for artworks and installations currently on view in New England that have been created by Indigenous artists, alongside links to organizations that work to support and amplify the voices and work of Indigenous artists.
