PEMAWSICHIK

Named for the Lenape word meaning “those who are living,” Pemawsichik is a group exhibition of works by contemporary / living Lenape artists, curated by artist and composer Nathan Young, to be held at the 20 Cooper Square Gallery January 13 - March 12, 2027.

The opening of the gallery show coincides with Under the Radar Festival. The activations alongside this festival will gather Indigenous artists for a series of performances, live broadcasts, readings, artist talks, and conversations. The January 13-19 program unfolds across multiple forms and encounters—from individual performances and collective discussions to a live recording of Overflow Radio—creating a space for artists to present new work, think aloud, and share what is moving through Indigenous art and performance now. Distinct performances held on January 13th, 15th, and 19th.

Throughout January, February and March events, workshops, walks and talks will continue to activate the gallery space. More information on continued programming coming soon.
