Iron & Honor: The Art of Knighthood

June 20 - October 11, 2026

The medieval knight in armor is one of the most popular figures in the collective imagination. This exhibition brings these legendary figures to life through an exceptional selection of objects from the collection of European weaponry and armor from the Stibbert Museum in Florence, Italy. From battlefields to royal courts, explore the various aspects of the knights’ life including their code of honor, their equipment, their role in military actions and their role in the societies of the Middle Ages. This exhibition provides a rare opportunity for Spokane to get a closer look at the masterpieces of complete suits of armor, helmets, swords, and shields that highlight the incredible craftsmanship of the era’s artisans.

Exhibition organized by Contemporanea Progetti, Italy in collaboration with the Museo Stibbert, Florence, Italy

Each of the original oil paintings sold will benefit the Conservation Nonprofit organization that stewards the area. 

Carrying Tradition

July 11, 2026 - May, 2027

Carrying Tradition invites visitors into living practice of Columbia River Plateau basket weaving. Through baskets that carry food, knowledge, and responsibility, the exhibit reveals how tradition moves forward through hands, families, and the land. Highlighting learning across generations, active cultural practice, and deep relationships with place, the experience centers continuity rather than nostalgia – presenting weaving as a vibrant expression of identity, stewardship, and care for the future.
