In’zhúje’waxóbe: Return of the Sacred Red Rock

This work by local artist Dave Lowenstein depicts the moment right before the Sacred Red Rock was placed in Allegawaho Memorial Heritage Park, land owned and operated by Kaw Nation near Council Grove, Kansas. This land was once part of their last reservation in the state. Kaw Nation purchased it in 2002 to establish the park, which includes ruins of houses built for the Kaw by the government, a monument to an unknown Kaw warrior built in 1925, walking trails with interpretive signage, and a dance arbor for an annual powwow.
