Lindner works with
museum collection
The Akta Lakota Museum & Cultural Center is pleased to host Dr. Markus Lindner, cultural anthropologist from Frankfurt, Germany. Lindner will
spend six weeks in Chamberlain,
South Dakota, working with the
museum’s collection of Lakota, Dakota and Nakota artifacts & contemporary art.
“Akta Lakota means to honor the people,” he said. “The museum’s mission is to preserve and promote both the heritage of the Lakota
people and the present – the art being created now. To truly honor those who created the pieces in this collection requires our best efforts to preserve, restore and display these things.”

St. Joseph's hosts
German visitors
Through an exchange with their sister school in Handrup, Germany, St. Joseph's Indian School recently hosted three high school students and chaperones on a visit to South Dakota.
Over the summer, two St. Joseph’s students visited Gymnasium Leonium, which was also founded by the Congregation of the Priests of the Sacred Heart.
During both visits, students spent time getting to know one another and teaching the visitors about life in their country.
