Looking After: Art and Care in Education Across Kansas

Artist Woody Crumbo studied at Wichita State University and was a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, a group of people indigenous to the land near the Great Lakes. The Potawatomi people believe that the land belongs to all living things, including the horses and prairie dogs depicted here. The Potawatomi people were forced to move by the United States government to present-day Kansas, and many still live near Topeka today.
