SUMMARY:EMSI LA2026 "American Landmarks: The Walking Purchase of 1737"
DESCRIPTION:The American Landmarks series explores historical touchstones 
 in The Huntington’s collections\, including objects featured in the “This
  Land Is…” exhibition\, through a mix of panel discussions and community 
 conversations. Join scholars\, storytellers\, and community experts to ex
 cavate the layered histories of this country through these cultural landm
 arks and discuss the lessons they hold for the present.\n\nLA2026 is pres
 ented by the USC-Huntington Early Modern Studies Institute. It brings tog
 ether members of the public and humanities scholars for eighteen conversa
 tions about museum and cultural exhibitions at six partnering institution
 s in the Los Angeles region\, including the Autry Museum of the American 
 West\, The Huntington\, LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes / El El Pueblo de Los
  Angeles Historical Monument\, Mission San Gabriel Arcángel\, the Natural
  History Museum of Los Angeles County\, and USC Libraries. Each exhibitio
 n frames conversations about the anniversary of 1776 from the perspective
  of California and the West. Each discussion will focus on specific items
  from one of the partner exhibitions\, encouraging public discussions abo
 ut national identities\, relationships between regional and national narr
 atives\, participating in democracy\, and human relationships to the land
 .\n\nThe EMSI LA2026 Project has been made possible in part by a major gr
 ant from the National Endowment for the Humanities.\n\nhttp://next-to-u.a
